Re: Cool Lights 256 LED & Pearstone battery no go?
I wonder if there could be some kind of current limiting within that battery that isn't in the older ones or some kind of limit to the sustained current draw in any case. Those camcorders are fairly...

Re: Color Meter Weirdness
Mikael, I would suggest just sending an email to info@coollights.biz and we can continue there.
Michael, I think they do the best they can for CCT type sources in digital mode at least that is my...

Re: Color Meter Weirdness
Yes that is the crux of the issue. Anything measure in CCT would not be well handled on a color temperature meter because they simply (as of this time) are not that accurate for CCT sources (which...

Re: Color Meter Weirdness
5 years ago when I was designing our studio flos which was our first product, I looked at Osram and Philips but they didn't meet my criteria for universal voltage input. They probably still don't...

Re: Color Meter Weirdness
It has to do mainly with time and resources available and how they should be most wisely spent. Our customers appreciate our fluorescent fixtures and tubes and have not been telling me they need to...

Re: Color Meter Weirdness
Thanks for your comments Mikael. As far as I know, I'm the only lighting manufacturer that takes on these issues and is willing to discuss them.
As far as CCT (correlated color temperature), a...

Re: Color Meter Weirdness
Integrating spheres and their peripheral devices measure lumens, color temperature and CRI as well as giving a printout of the spectrum, among other things... You can see a printout from one in our...

Re: Color Meter Weirdness
The problem is there really isn't anything else other than CCT (correlated color temperature) at this point and CRI to describe LEDs and Fluorescent. This is all good enough for the...
