high CRI throws less than Low CRI
you need measurements to know throw
a lot of people guess, wrong
XPL Hi throws more than HDS 250, which throws more than Golden Dragon, which throws more than 219b
HDS throw, from here
High CRI
109 meters lh351d
110 meters 219b
Low CRI
128 meters golden dragon

157 meters xpl-hi
I agree with modern
the HDS design is not compatible with physical lockout
it does not work
it pisses off the elf
and he goes on strike
reevaluate the reasons you want to use physical lockout with an HDS
hint, if one of your reasons for unscrewing the head, is because your light has a raised button, and you want to prevent accidental activation,
use the button lockout option instead
here is the manual
see section 14
button lockout is option 3
if one of your reasons to use half twist is to eliminate the parasitic drain of the HDS eSwitch, abandon that strategy. It pisses off the elf, and he goes on strike until you cooperate with the design, which is NOT compatible with physical half twist lockout.
HDS parasitic drain can only be eliminated by removing the head completely, or removing the battery.
did I guess any of your reasons for trying to use physical lockout or are there others?
abandon all hope of physical lockout with an HDS
trust the elf, he knows when you try to unscrew him
and it pisses him off
hint, hold the button down while screwing
then stop unscrewing to attempt lockout
