I recently purchased an A2 and I have some questions. I had it sent back to surefire to replace a bad bulb, but now that I have it back it doesn't seem any brighter to me. I'm pretty sure my E2e with fresh batteries puts out more light. Is this normal? I heard people saying their A2's were brighter than the claimed 50 lumens. It doesn't seem so for me. Also, after I got it back form SF, this is what my beamshot looks like:
and here it is again, overexposed to show the 'flairing' around the outside of the beam.
Notice how the beam gets dimmer then brighter near the outside. Is something wrong with my A2? I really don't want to send it back to SF again, but I don't like it the way it is. This does not seem like SF beam quality, and my E2e is better than this A2 in brightness and beam quality.
