Gandalf -
I've seen you write about this before... and I respect your opinions. The problem is, I have both a white Infinity, and a turquoise one. They are both "new" versions, and with new batteries in each, there is no question that for me the white one is the more usable of the two. I can just barely read comfortably by the turq one, while the white one produces more than enough light to read comfortably. Add the fact that the colored one has much more pronounced rings, and the white one easily wins in all catagories. Maybe we have drastically different units - and the two I own are the only two I've seen, so I can't make a general statement... but those are my observations. For me, white wins for sure. Same goes for the Arc AAA's. I've tried the colored ones, and I find the white so much more useful, that I almost never use the colored ones except for the novelty (or night-vision retention) aspect.
YMMV.
