I bought a flashlight with 220 lumen, is that actually good for a single AA battery, i think its decent then my 3$ flashlight and it also runs at 1 aa battery.

:thumbsdow I don't believe a single AA cell at 1.5v light can produce 220 lumen (Out the Front) ANSI lumens. This rating is probably at the emitter maybe or just false advertising.
The Thrunite 1C does, after 3 minutes, which is ANSI, not OTF.
ANSI is OTF after 3 minutes. 220lm is possible from AA just not for $3 but 20x more.
Thrunite Neutron 1A 240lm. E2DL has at least 200lm, it actually has more than that.

Don't forget that lots of lights are marketed as " Over 200 lumens " but they don't say that you have to put a 14500 to get that many. On a normal AA they only produce 80 or so....
AA lights CAN produce up to 200 but if they are that well made, the manufacturer doesn't have to rely on missleading marketing to sell them.
Sorry Mortuus, I think if you measure it on an AA it's producing far less than 200.
I can't believe that the lights on a single AA that can produce 220 ANSI lumens. What the battery?
