I am trying to decide on the two and wanted to get some suggestions from those who have experience with these two models?

Anyone hear anything from LumaPower coming out with a Q5 LED?

I like the "strike" bezel of the LumaPower and its bigger size with pocket clip. But I like the multiple output levels with the T20Q5 and thus wider range of use, especially the lower outputs.

I will be using this light for outdoor activities, such as camping and power outages. For this application, I think a nice spill is important, but I would like a good hot spot as well, in case I need to momentarily bind someone. But the priority is a nice spill.
Not really for "tactical" use (like a gun light), have a SureFire G2.

Thanks for the inputs.

I have the M1-R and it's well suited to outdoors -- it's really a thrower. While it is useful for blinding anybody inside 30ft, I wish I had bought a light with more spill/flood that would be more useful for general purpose. If spill is your priority, look elsewhere.
