do you need the lense?

[chrisatpsu]

can i run it without a lens to get a wide floodlight?

[chrisatpsu]

found my answer...

An Aether II only uses one Lense per light unlike the Original which took 6 lenses per light.

They are the:
FL model - Flood light which is 35 deg
NF model -  Narrow Flood which is 24 deg 
SP model -  Spot which is 15 deg

You also can use no lens for the widest flood which will light a large area up.

I run mine with no lens and very happy with spread

[chrisatpsu]

how far away from the object you're lighting?  and how wide did it throw?

[zwiller]

3' away I get a bright 10-12' spread.  You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login  Bet you can get 20-25' at 6' away or so but less bright but doable.

This may help with angle of lenses, to gauge on the rough throw of light.

thanks for the graphic, but i don't know the angle with no lense

Pretty sure the led is 120 deg and the case wont affect or limit it.
