So the reason that the cd rating can be twice as much, but the throw is so similar is that throw is a function of the sqare root of candela over 0.25 lux. In practice what this means is that you have to 4x the candela to 2x the range. So for example, a 25,000 cd light has a range of 316 meters. And a 100,000 cd light has a range of 632 meters (slightly rounded, but you get the point.) The actual equation is D=√(cd/0.25). So if you know the cd of a light, multiply it by 4 and take the square root of that and you have the ANSI rated range in meters.
Although similar in brightness,
HT 30 the light beam is more pointed, acute and allows you to reach a greater distance.
I was leaning towards the tk for many of the reasons you highlighted. Now i have no doubts!
Cheers from Wisconsin USA!
Cheers brother
I'm liking the TK30 bro!! Thanks a shit ton for the comparison👍
The TK30 fits the pocket or rifle/pistol mount. You can even buy a remote pressure switch. The HT30 is too large for either but is not much difference in power. I like the TK30 better.
300k vs 600k candela: Doubling the power doesn't necessarily allow for double throw distance just like 400hp vs 800hp doesn't allow your car to reach double the speed in the latter.
You'll see more noticeable gaps at lower power but the higher you go, is like taking off a fraction of a second off your quarter mile. Aside from a different design in the lens and also the electronics of these two flashlights, there will always be atmospheric conditions that will affect the performance output.
Welcome to Earth!
thanks for the content )
I think these LEP lights would make great spotlights for nighttime boating. Great for looking for buoys and that sort of thing.
My thought goes to an unexpected self defense weapon. Think about it. In the dark, someone's approaching you with ill intent. Get one of those out and hit the strobe button, point it at their face and blind them.
I use mine spotting buoys gigging at night
I'm with you....the TK30.
Yuuup!
Because Candelaria is only a measurement of intensity of light. Intensity doesn't dictate distance.
Dude THANK YOU! I’m a Fenix fan boi and want an LEP for my night hunting rifle. I need just enough flood to be useful at distance. Thank you for posting this comparison!
Glad I could help mate
I'm in the same boat, for Coyotes. Leaning towards the TK30 due to less weight, and not needing as much throw as the HT30r, but I want a more focused beam and longer distance then typical lights offer. Most 300m rated rail mounted lights aren't actually useable at that distance, and 300 is where i need it to be, for these damn yotes. Which did you end up choosing and how is it working out for you?
I prefer the Ht30R for performance @@stevegillespie6424
Try ace beam l19 ver1 Green

Thanks for a great comparative review of these light-throwing beasts! One question, if you still have them - do you know if the front protection window is made of glass (or sapphire crystal etc) or from plastic/polymer?
I no longer have them but I believe it is some type of hardened glass. But don't quote that as it could be something else like sapphire. Definitely not plastic
@@flashlightcrazy Thanks so much for that info. And I've now had this confirmed by Fenix itself, YES, it is a glass front lens window. 🙂
Good question brother
Does the memory work for strobe on the TK30? Or just the high and low constant beams?
No memory for strobe bro
Now i can point a beam of laser light up in the sky to help my Uber Eats driver locate my house.
What is the best long range flashlight you recommend?
Oh there are so many. Is it just for spotlight, or you want spill as well?
@@flashlightcrazy Which would you recommend for both features?
@@engineren8023 oh I am a massive weltool fan. So for throw with some extra spill i would go the Weltool T11. And for just spot i would go either the Weltool LH3 head, Weltool W1 head, or Weltool W3 pro.
If it is extreme distance you need, then the Weltool W4 or W5
@@flashlightcrazy What is your recommendation for another flashlight brand model? I don't like this brand. for me the flashlight will illuminate long range and wideon new flashlight models flood light and thrower flashlight dear friend
@@engineren8023 check out Acebeam, Nitecore, Manker, Olight,
very good video and thanks for using metric system!
Does anyone know if it's possible to switch my tk30 tailcap out for a ht30r cap?
No it wont work
@@flashlightcrazy damn. Thanks for letting me know.
@@-Kurt... All good man, I only know because i tried it. The TK30 doesn't respond to it. Not sure why
I like the HT30R both are good lights I don't know if liteshop is your sponsor but man that's a high price NealsGadgets and Flashlightbrand have way better deals.
