Wich light Solarforce lm900 vs UltraFire MCU WF-1000L MC-E

[LumenJoe]

Does anyone have any experience with these lights and the run times? I'm trying to narrow down my search for a light in 600lm+ light range. I want something with a lot of flood and a really large hot spot.
Thanks in advance for the information

I found this thread regarding the WF-1000 MCE:

This is a thread I started a while ago regarding the Solarforce L900. Jirik has made some tests of both the L900 and the L900m. He said that they are of equal brightness on high, the 900 running just over 1.5hrs and the 900m running just over 1hr. On the low mode of the 900m he got just over 3hrs I believe.

From the comments on the build quality of the WF-1000, it appears the Solarforce units are substantially nicer quality, but I have not had the WF-1000 to compare with.

Best regards,

I want to add that on the dx sight there are two listings for that particular ultrafire. Both are mc-e, however, one is around 45 dollars and the other 76 dollars. I purchased the lower end. It has only 2 modes and I believe is is not being driven as high as the higher priced ultrafire. It is quite possible the Higher priced ultrafire may have better quality. I cannot attest to that. I added some indoor beam pics so hopefully that will help with your decision.
All pics are approx 25 feet from corner
