Specs don't indicate if it's the neutral white or cool white one so I won't be joining.
Cool/blue lights disgust me.

DalamarTo quote from Budgetlight forums: " The ODL20 tint is cold around 6000K, uniform over the whole beam, does not have any particular color changes or artifacts. Despite being a Cool White, it is very pleasant beam to my eyes."
It's a 26650 light, so, you'll have decent runtimes. Personally, I'd buy this and send it to Wayne at Skylumen.com and have the emitter changed to one of your liking. I too am NOT a fan of 6000k or similar color spectrum emitters and own more Neutral and high CRI lights myself. Just my .02$

DalamarThe quote Colinsdad shared is pretty accurate. Definitely cold white but there's no overt blue tint like the ultra cheap 6500K emitters/choices that you see in so many lights. Lumintop really likes that "classic" cold color but recently they have started to do some warmer Nichia in smaller lights and may be exploring Luminus emitters soon. The thing with a thrower like this is that you may actually want cool colors for the added distance (it's appreciable in this kind of flashlight where it isn't so much with normal beam patterns). There is a pre-order going on right now for the new Astrolux FT3 at banggood. I don't need it because I like this Lumintop well enough, but I ordered one anyway since it does have a neutral white option and the driver firmware is Narsil, which should be really nice. The price is killer for pre-order but it looks like once it is a normal production offering it will still be less expensive than the Lumintop and altogether the features and build look to be about the same between the two. Astrolux hasn't been the most dependable QC in the past but they are pretty well made. Biggest disadvantage is dealing with their distributor if you need to do so.
