The comment "narrow beam" leaves me scared. I can still feel my shock at the X-1. I want a wide beam...especialy from a utility light.

It appears that this light uses a reflector, not a lens, to create the "narrow beam." Other Luxeon lights designed this way usually have a very incandescent-like output - a tight hotspot for throw and a dimmer wide flood. That may or may not be to your taste, of course, but this shouldn't be a zero-spill spotlight like the lensed LED lights (Inova X-1, PT Impact, PAL lights, etc.)
