When I first starting to buy my "mega-bright" LED flashlights, they were great. But then, when the dc-dc circuit can no longer maintain the light, you reach battery half-life - the point output starts to drop like a stone.
The thrill is gone at this point. Sure, it may last a lot longer with more light than regular lights. But didn't you buy that 5w LED light for just that? - The light. That's why I am looking at rechargeable CR-123 batteries more seriously now. Sure, they only last half as long but you can recharge any time you notice the light getting too dim for your taste.
Which do you prefer, and don't you feel the same way about the "charge" being gone from your favorite light?
