Hi,

I am wonder what the difference is between the silver plm with diffuser VS the white plm + BOC and front diffuser. Is one softer and less focused than the other and how much of a power lost between the white and the silver.

Thanks,

Tony

Once a diffuser is in place, any focusing is lost. The silver may be a tiny bit narrower, but it will still be rather wide (I would imagine in the 160 degree range). The white PLM with diffuser and BOC may also be a tiny bit less specular than a silver PLM, but not much. I do not currently have a "light loss" number, but I will work on finding that for you.
