What's the biggest and baddest LED flashlight that you have?

[jk037]

Biggest & baddest? Probably the Lenser X21. Somewhere in the region of 1,000 lumens; mediocre compared to many lights mentioned here but for my purposes (I do out-of-hours standby cover for high-voltage substations) it's variable focus and intense output is awesome. Tightly-focused beam for picking out - and probably blinding - intruders at a distance; bright even flood for visually surveying faulty equipment. Oh, and it's big and heavy enough to offer some reassurance in the dead of night!

Next best is my Trustfire 3T6; similar output to the Lenser but the beam is fixed and therefore a compromise between flood and throw, more on the floody side. A good backup for the Lenser when I'm on call.

Now an X21 using seven XM-Ls rather than the XR-Es in the current model, and NiMh or Li-Ions rather than alkalines? THAT would be epic!

My bad. This is talking LED. My apologies.

My baddest light is my 2D Mag/Malkoff 240 Lumen Drop-in

My brightest light is an L2P/Nailbender XM-L 3-Mode CW

Fenix TK70 ,and if it finally comes , Olight SR95 UT.

I have bought 12 top grade LED flashlights so far, but I have not yet bought a super-bright LED flashlight yet. I have 5 lights that run up to 650-700 ANSI lumens, but thats the brightest. I guess the main reason is that I really dont need anything much brighter, and dont even use the brightest settings on those lights that I have.

But here they are: 1. ZL Sc600 2. Eagletac G25C2 3. Sunwayman T20CS 4. Jetbeam Pa 10 5. iTp A6


I will probably buy an EL ST-90 Search & Rescue though. 2200 lumens, but 130,000 lux!

 

[ILIKEFLASHLIGHTS]

My TK70 is pretty bad as well.

Professionals Favorite Halogen Spotlight

The Dereelight, Crelant 7G5 collominator head, or Olight SR90 don't stand a chance of beating this one.

I dont own one, but I'm pretty sure the SR-90 will light up that tree just as well or maybe better than that!

 

[ILIKEFLASHLIGHTS]

The SR90 won't touch this light.

I can take a picture on auto exposure and a 3 sec shutter speed and make it look like the trees on fire like some do on here. That picture above was 1.4 sec shutter on manual exposure.

This light puts out right at 3600 lumens.

But I read the thread wrong. This isn't a LED light. So I deleted my picture.

My biggest and brightest flashlight is an O-light SR-92. It works well for me. Good spill and decent throw.

 

[VIET PRIDE BULLIES]

TK70 and Trustfire X100 for now
Would like to add some throwie as order VPT2, SR95 and Crelant 7G9

1) What's the biggest and baddest LED flashlight you own?
:devil: 2) How many lumens does it put out?
:sick2: 3) How often do you use it?

Torchlab triple H3.
1400 beautiful high-CRI 4000K lumens.
Any chance I get - about once per week (Or hours at a time on tunnel trips)

 

[GeoBruin]

Varapower Turbo 2.0. Not sure about the lumens since I requested the warm version and most of the tests were for the cooler colors but it makes a lot of light. I don't have the best test equipment but I estimate about 80,000 Lux with the reflector and almost 150,000 with the aspheric lens kit.

 

[LiteTheWay]

My TrustFire X6 SST-90. Great throw and spill - a most under-rated light. Probably because it was regareded as 'budget' when it first came out but at $140 it wasn't budget in Nov 2010 and is much less so now.

Yeah, I guess its difficult to judge how bright a certain flashlight is by pictures alone. I've watched Youtube videos of just about every light I've bought before hand, and many of them either look brighter than in the video, or not as bright.

 

[ILIKEFLASHLIGHTS]

Yea it all depends on the exposure used and shutter speed of the camera or how the video camera is adjusted to pick up the beam. Like I said some use auto exposure on here and their camera uses a 3 to 5 sec shutter speed. That picture I posted was on manual exposure and 1.4 sec shutter. Big difference. If I took a picture like some on here, that tree would be on fire.

The SR90 moded with the newer SBT-90 LED will give your halogen light a run for it's money.

Biggest, baddest, and brightest in candela, is my DEFT-slaying LED Torpedo (thanks, ma_sha1!)
Probably "only" about 300 lumens OTF, but well over 300kcd. Yes, it throws a tidy square on cloud bases.

Brightest in lumens, the Skyray King (a TM-11 clone), about 2000lm.

New: Duct tape Deft EDC to my torchlab triple. Beamshots coming this weekend.

My biggest and baddest are two different lights the biggest is a stock Maglite 6D and the baddest is a Fenix TK40.i keep the Fenix in my car and dont use it very often but its there if i need a lot of light
