i've done runtime tests with energizer lithium and have eyeballed the brightness with help of an LOD-CE for reference.
mine is .75 high and i get a runtime of ~50min of constant on and ~70 min. total runttime of intermittent use.
(intermittent: 5min ON, then 2-3min. OFF, repeat)
low is .50mA and i get 4.5 hours.
for high level, this is to ~50%, there is also a little more time left with lower level light.

The 1.5V primary lithium batteries drop there voltage under 1C load faster and more so than NIMH cells under 1C loads. A high capacity NIMH AAA (Sanyo 900 or 1000 mAh) cell will give better results (ie. flatter, longer runtime). I used to believe that the Energizer cells were better but learned later how much the voltage drops under load.
