Using the Diffusers
The VM-160 comes with four diffusers that modify the light output: clear, frosted white, blue, and amber. The
frosted white diffuser will produce a more diffused light than the clear one. The blue and amber diffusers will
cool and warm the light, respectively. Note that you will lose a bit of light with the blue and amber diffusers.
