Hi Folks:
I was wondering if anyone could tell me how well this light maintains output on its "turbo" mode?
I found many reviews, but most of the relevant graphs were no longer available from the hosting sites.
I have a couple Fenix lights (PD32, 35, TK11) and the disappointment is (when running an 18650, of course), the voltage drops enough that I get maybe 20-25 min on "Turbo" before the thing drops out to level 4 (I am also looking for something with a little more throw). This was even true back with the Sanyo UR18650FMs which held their voltage really well through the discharge cycle!
I understand that there are also thermal limitations, but I would be looking at more intermittent operation on turbo . . . would just like to get more CUMULATIVE output at close-to-max when running turbo.
Thanks!
