David, thanks. I hung out yesterday with a friend of mine who has been into LED lights for quite some time now
but he doesn't spend very much on them (which is fine). We did compare his against my two and he was quite
surprised at how bright and efficient the beams were. I agree that companies probably embellish claims a fair bit
getting into the "maximum lumens" game. I'm really not going to get into modding any of my lights but have a few
different styles I'd like to acquire over the next few months or so to add to the collection of users.
I quite like the looks of the Surefire brand but they are expensive in comparison to some of the competition, so I
think I might buy from a different company, perhaps 4sevens aa. It would make a pretty good edc.
