Which led will be the best for the application. I want a long running 1x123 aleph light engine. I was thinking of using a NG400.

Would a SXOH LuxI or a TXOH Lux III run longer and which one would be brighter?

Within the limits of accuracy of the binning, these both have the same Vf,
but the SXOH is rated at 350mA while the TXOH is rated at 700mA. So if you run both at 400mA the SXOH will produce just over its "S" bin output, while the TXOH will produce under its "T" bin rating. The SXOH will be brighter. See DFiorentino's recent post for hard data from a few LED examples he has tested. It's here: http://candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=120454&highlight=difiorentino

Have fun.
