Multi LED or single LED - which is better?

[Chicken Drumstick]

I'll do my best to give an answer, even though it isn't an absolute answer

I tell people that want to see stuff further away, to go with single emitter in a large reflector. I tell the other people who don't want a narrow beam, to go with multiple emitters.

Far away: Single emitter. Further away: Bigger reflector single emitter.

More power, wider, closer: Multiple emitters.

More of both throw and more power at the same time: Need a bigger flashlight.
