Is the Matrix 2 either or both stepped up and regulated? Based on my experience with a CMG Reactor, Luxeon LEDs don't do so well with 2 AA alkalines unless at least stepped up. Between the Matrix 2 and Yukon HL, which is brighter and has a better beam with the Yukon in Luxeon mode? I am guessing the Matrix 2 is brighter based on PT advertised run times. Lastly both are available at local REI, $39.95 for Matrix 2 and $59.95 for Yukon HL. Are there any killer web deals that can substantially undercut these prices?
I am leaning towards Matrix 2 due to it's simplicity and lower price but I want to get at least a good three or four hours of brighter runtime per set of batteries then my current PT Aurora on fresh cells. Anybody have both?
Thanks for any replies!
