[QUOTE="N10sivern, post: 1082596, member: 52360"] Ok. Just built a few lights and took some measurements. Candela and distances per ANSI calculated FL1 standard. Beam distance is 0.25 lux. Useable distance is about 50-60% of the rated distance. White light - 250,838 candela which gives 1002 meters beam distance (1096 yards) Green light - 132,777 candela which gives 729 meters beam distance (797 yards) Red light - 92,977 candela which gives 610 meters beam distance (667 yards) Compare that to Wicked Lights and Sniper Hawg Lights. It's almost double there output! :D The downside, batteries don't last as long. Having not ran a test yet, I'm going to approximate the white light at 1.5hr, red at 2hr, and green at 2.5hr. [/QUOTE]
