Ty_Bower,
I have a printout of the old chart dated June 4, 2005. It lists the runtimes for 60 lumens, 60 lumens XR, and 42 lumens. Your figures are exactly what the chart shows. It shows the 42 lumens model should get 60 minutes runtime with Li-ion batteries and 80 minutes with a Duracell (and 75 minutes with Surefire, 55 minutes with BatteryStation primary batteries). Turbodog's actual runtimes make me wonder if the chart is correct.
It is too late tonight, but I will post the entire old chart tomorrow if anyone is interested.
