  • This is a field test of the FENIX HM75R headlamp. I want to thank Fenix Lighting for sending me the product and making the review possible. With twelve possible output levels, there is a lot to cover, so this is a long video.
    While the headlamp can be run simultaneously off the primary 18650 battery and the supplied 21700 power bank. beam shots in this video were taken while using only the primary 18650 battery.
    Both power sources were worn on the headband in order to test balance and comfort.
    This test was conducted at the Arbor Hills Nature Preserve in Plano, Texas.

    You can run the headlamp off a third-party power bank (i.e. with the 18650 completely removed). Available output levels depend on the power bank. With my old-school Dark Energy Poseidon, I had access to L/M for the two White output modes. You can charge some devices with the power bank. I used a USB-C -> Lightning, for example, to charge my iPhone 14 Pro MAX. Thank you.

    I really liked your HDR short. Have you considered doing a full product review in HDR? Would like to see at least one.

      Thanks again for your generous support of the channel. I have considered it. I record in HDR, but post-production/delivery is SDR (sRGB/sRGB). This seems to work well in general for YT. I have to create a completely new Resolve project and grade/produce differently for HDR output (i.e. REC 2020/PQ 1000-nit). What I've considered the most is that since SAR Team members get advance releases of all review videos, I'll produce a second (shorter) HDR video of selected products and release that to the SAR Team only. Since you're a member and putting your $$$ where your comments are, I'll make that happen.

    Can we access the red directly?

    Hi can you run a powerbank on the HM71r when it is in use thanks.

    • @L5-SAR

      You can run the one supplied by Fenix or sub in another. YMMV relative to output and total run time. Thank you.

    Finally Fenix has a headlamp with a higher red output than 10 lumens. I was super intrigued when I got the email saying this was a new release. Might just have to grab one.
    Now I’ve only got one question, can you go straight to red from it being off and not have to go through spot and flood?

    • @L5-SAR
      @L5-SAR  2 місяці тому +1

      No. There is no direct-to-red from off. Have to turn the dial. Thank you.

      @@L5-SARhmmm that’s unfortunate. Thanks.

      It would have been interesting to add a second off position at the end of the rotation. You could go forward Red -> Off, then back for Off -> Red. Thank you.

      ​@@L5-SAR So you basically have to blind yourself before accessing the red? That's really not optimal at all.

    • @L5-SAR

      I go back and forth between red and the other modes (on lower levels) often when using this headlamp for reviews and have never blinded myself. YMMV.
