Steve is right - the photo shows an Edelux I for hanging mounting – the thinner black ring at the front is a dead-giveaway. The Blug post with its link to the Edelux II product page could mislead readers into thinking they could just attach a standard Edelux II that way, but that would not work well at all. The beam pattern would be upside-down. (The Edelux and IQ Cyo have a very carefully designed beam pattern that provides even illumination from the near- to the far-field, and cut off the beam at the top to prevent blinding oncoming traffic.)
The Edelux II has a wider beam and in general is preferable over the already-excellent original Edelux. The version for hanging mounting is still months away – it appears that demand for the standard Edelux II has the good people at Schmidt in Germany more than busy!
