Novatac 120P modded with USW0H - 3000 lux more! - Now with Images

Newbie question. The 120P is supposed to put out 120 lumens.
Does not the USW0H have a maximum output of 240 lumens ? What prevents the modified novatac from pushing the USW0H to its maximum output ? CR123A cannot push it hard enough ?

Sorry if I missed something this is still fairly new to me.

240 is the emitter output under controlled conditions at 1A. Out the front is considerably less. I don't know what the Novatac runs at on max, but I would guess less than 1A.

Changing the LED will only increase output if the replacement is more efficient than the previous one.

Exactly.... what both of mine did when I changed out the emitters.
