What I find useful is comparisons of similarly powered lights.

For example, a comparison of several AAX1 lights.  In the comparisons, I like to see the different levels compared (Low, Medium and High), with pictures of the beam pattern and a table where runtimes can be compared.

In the notes, I like to see if there were problems of note or special things to consider about a specific light (GITD ring, interchangeable heads, etc)

Nice selection.

Many thanks for the pictures and for the effort and cost invloved

If you guys have multiple versions of the same light with different types and/or tints of emitter, e.g. cool vs neutral vs HCRI, that would be great to see too.   :tu:

How about a custom modified light. Say a high power led maglite versus a standard one.
If I remember correctly, wait, what was I saying?

Wow, just wow. Great project and great website. Will have to dig through those images.

Dear users, please write in the thread, what you want to see the brand and model of flashlights in our tests!
Since you asked >:D
I would find it useful if you would add the batteries to the flashlights, that would give an immediate sense on how big that flashlight is (for the noobs like me, who don't know every flashlight).
Example
Olight
- S10 (1xCR123)
- i3 (1xAAA)

Also, the amount of data is almost overwhelming (that is a good thing). But again, it would be easier if you would make a scene with a single setup of flashlight and or group the flashlights by battery instead of brand. That way, if you want to buy a flashlight of a certain type (e.g. 1xAAA) it would be much easier to see / compare the various products.

It wouldn't be the internet without people complaining.
