Regulated lights generally will step down and may eventually drop out of regulation into direct drive when the cell/s can no longer provide enough current. Most manufacturers of lights using primaries will give the runtime until the cell is depleted and the light shuts off, not when the light drops out of regulation. You have the mAh ratings on the sides of cells, and if they are accurate, that is what you get, so 1600mAh of primary is the same as 1600mAh of secondary, no more and no less, just like a ton of feathers weighs the same as as a ton of lead, and a motorcycle going 60mph is no faster than a station wagon going the same speed.
