So here's the comparison... with both focused to their tightest point, the brightest parts of the spots appeared to be about the same. The stock MM is very yellow while the MJLED looks nice and white. The beam of the MM is very ugly- blotchy, oval shaped, has little holes in it, etc. The beam of the MJLED is very smooth.

Cool! another comparison report - thank you so much -
do you have any other LED lights that may be worthwhile comparing, please?
I'm assuming you're pretty happy with the MJLED on just plain alkalines - would be really interested in your take on the improvements on lithiums.
More feedback and impressions from CPF'ers please - I know there must be literally hundreds of MJLEDs in CPF'ers' hands judging from the 2 threads Lambda had over at the CPF's Custom & Mod B/S/T forum and how quickly he sold out of them......
BTW - my MJLED installed to the crimps is about 1/8" from the base - gets tight focus at close to 3/4* turn from the off hard-stop - I like it like that.
* editted to correct to 3/4 turn
