What is the difrence between the Aurora AK-T6 and the Romisen RC-T5

What is the difference between these 2 lights from DealExtreme?

The Romisen RC-T5 4*Cree bin (P4 or Q2)?
Has removable converter for 3*123a's.
price $49.29

The Aurora AK-T6 4*Cree Q2 3-Mode (NEW).
Removable tube converter for 3*123a's?
price $47.58

Except for the price ($1.71) I see little difference. Maybe the Crees are of a different bin? What is the bin on the RC-T5 (higher or lower)? They never posted it. Can we assume the the RC-T5 uses P4's or Q2's?

As no one owns a AK-T6 it's going to be down to paper specs and as you say they're identical, as iirc the T5 is indeed Q2 at least the later ones, earlier models may have been P4's.

A lot of the Aurora lights have HAIII, this would be a nice addition. Still I think the appeal of these triple and quad lights is on the decline with the emergence of the P7.

After I finish my T5 mod I will start a P7 mod then compare beam shots

My T5 is getting shark/remora and Q5's. This should give the P7 A little competition.

Oh undoubtedly, these quads are always going to match and even surpass the P7 with at the same current using latest bin crees.

Still the form factor and beam profile of the P7 is more appealing. But having said that we are yet to see a decent one!
