I finally accumulated a modest selection of small-but-mighty lithium-powered midget flashlights - SureFire G2, Legend LX, Streamlight Scorpion, and Tac-M III. Wish I had an ASP TacLite/Triad, maybe later.
Anyway here is what they look like next to each other (only had a pressure switch for the TAC-M III, which presented some real photography challenges not to mention the skillful use of several toes):
And here are the results of the beamshot challenge:
All lights were adjusted to their tightest focus (TAC was not adjustable) and all were on fresh 123's. Lights were shined onto the ceiling from about 15 feet below. Not only was the Scorpion the absolute brightest, it also had the biggest hotspot, which was brighter at any point, than the brightest area in any of the other three's hotspots.
This Scorpion and my UltraStinger may be the only two incandescents I'll ever need.
But of course I'll buy more...
