Can someone please provide basic, layman, top level characteristics and differences in these LEDs? I mean general stuff, like usual max output in lumens, ideal use for which type of flashlight - better for flooder or throwers etc. Im doing my research, but did not find much yet with focus on real life use.
XP-L HI - In my understanding has small chip (or how is the LED core itself called), has no dome, therefore ideal for throwers, output usually to max 1000 lumens
XHP 70 - lumen monster, comes with dome by default, needs big reflector for decent throw
XHP 50 - same as above, less max lumens
XHP 35 HI - no dome, Im very interesting in the XHP series, assuming this particular type will be good for 1600+ lumens throwers, similar to XPL HI
XHP 35 HD - comes with dome, It needs big reflector for good throw
Im considering a custom build of a powerful medium sized thrower based on one of these budget hosts, but not sure about which emitter will be the best for reflector approx. 4 cm in diameter.
Thanks!
