Portable thrower comparison with lots of graphs

I will add the TK61vn v4.
You seem to mention this light in half of all your posts here...

Concerning the other lights:
Nope, as I mention in the first post, I only consider lights which are better than the best stock LED Thrower (TN42 - 700kcd) to be of interest. Otherwise the list would be overly long.

OK,,,Thanks

However, I did notice that you listed ~ 15 lights Before the TN42 that were from 100Kcd to 562Kcd? That is why I listed the others.

Well yes, I guess the list is a bit subjective in this regard.
The maglite is there because everybody knows it. The Olight SR-90 was the first stock LED thrower to hit 100kcd. Then there are some well known and some specialty (very throwy) HID lights. Also there are some incan lights which are rather throwy (but they will always "suck" because of the physically limited luminance of incandescent bulbs).

I learned something. People from GERMANY can exaggerate!

My Girlfriends Mother was born in Kindenheim,Germany. SW of Frankfurt and 12KM due west of Manheim.


TK61vn V4

Taken last night TOWER IS 902 yards away.

I tested this light at almost twice[1634m/1787yds.] that distance and it shed usable light on a cell tower.

Thanks again for the thread! The TK61vn V4 can now rest!!!

I have now started adding otf lumen values (when I can't find measured values I calculate them myself based on multiple factors) and am calculating the luminance of the light source in each light based on multiple factors.

Have you considered adding the MAXTOCH Xsword L2K to the list?
While featuring a somewhat unwieldy name, the claimed throw is immense.
It would be nice to have an early representative of the potentially disruptive LEP technology on the list.
