What is the lumen output of a KL4 with an E1e body?? I was playing with mine this evening and noticed how bright it was. I don't think I need a KL1 now /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
nirad,

From what I've seen in KL4's, the KL4 runs at about half current when running on one cell. I'd venture to guess that it's running between 300-350mA. This doesn't mean that you're getting half the light, just half the current. You might be getting about 60% of the light that you would get on 2 cells.
 
I just wondered if anyone has measured the light output with a light meter, so I am assuming 30 - 40 lumens would be correct?
