fenix t1 vs stinger

[alanlee2274]

hello everyone.i was just wondering if the new t1 would outperform my everyday carry stinger incan.i bought my son a dorcy 3watt led 4 months ago and it seems pretty bright,not brighter than my stinger but impressive for 20.00.regardless,i ordered the t1 yesterday from fenix-store paid for it and then informed it was on backorder.CRAP.this would be my first led so i hope im happy and can replace my longer stinger.thanks guys for your help,this forum has been a real help.

According to the numbers, the T1 has more output but the Stinger has more throw.

Can anyone post LUX readings, from the same meter, of a T1 and a Stinger?

I carry a Stinger with me at work everyday and am most curious too. I'm even considering an Inova T-4 as a replacement because I just like LED.

Thanks guys.

The Pelican 7060 would probably be a better replacement.

The regular stinger (which I have had) puts out about 90 lumans total. The T1 should be about twice that. The stinger might have slightly better throw, but in a much dimmer beam. The Ultra stinger is a good throw light, but that is a much bigger light.
