I know the old versions of Lenslight Mini's single CR123 were driven 700mA or less.
The current batch of lights are rated 330 lumens on single CR123, and 440 Lumens on 2-CR123 (at the led).
Has anyone measured how hard these are driven? or have seen the spec?
The reason I am asking is I am...
How come no one sells this flashlight in US?
This flashlight is rated 460 lumens, now there is XM-L2 version rated at 560 lumens.
Incredibly bright for CR123!
1AA eneloop is 300 lumens
1Cr123 is 295 lumens
2AA eneloop is 320 Lumens
This does not make sense to me as 1 eneloop is brigher than a CR123 version of the light? Is this right?
SC52 is rated at 280Lm ANSI from one AA Eneloop and even more output with Energizer L91 lithium battery.
How much brighter is it?
What is the Lumens on the Energizer L91?
I would think programming can take care of the heat issue. Since most lights have sensors for that - step down a level once heat gets past threshold.
I do not think a light needs to be designed to run on max for too long. Most of time couple even a few minutes is fine.
If a lights is only 1,2...
I also prize runtime over brightness 95% of time. But I see no reason to limit brightness when a light has many levels or is programmable. Why not let the customer set and use as they need. There are occasional situations where one wishes they had a brighter level at hand.

Considering how bright this light is on R4 it will be amazing once G2 version is released.
