They do provide run times (sort of) if you read through some of the bit threads in the marketplace. Why they don't provide output in lumens, I'm not sure. :whistle: I guess they can't be accused of inflating the ratings though. :crackup:

My DBS with an R2-bin 3SD pill puts out ~200 lumens on high, 70 lumens on medium, and 15 lumens on low :whistle:

The DBS v2 runs for exact 90 minutes at full power on one AW 18650 li-ion battery. Output is similar to the RaidFire Spear or the latest MRVs and Tiablos, however, it has tighter focus so it throws a bit further than its closest competitors. Check the Flashlight Reviews section.

The reason I've heard for no runtime or lumen rating is because every LED is slightly different and the end user might not have the battery they used to test runtime.
