I have a Surefire 6P that I had the initially a Cree R2 290 lumen bulb, but it wasn't as bright as the Alpha G8 so I sold it. Here it goes.
The Alpha G8 claims it makes 390/400 lumens.
The Malkoff M60 claims 200 plus. I used cr123 rechargeables for the test and without prejudice.
The Malkoff is definitly brighter. Outdoors it went further. The hot spot is wider too. At first I was hesitant because of the $50 plus price of the M60 but after reading reviews I gave it a chance. The Alpha G8 is a great LED it is really bright, but definitely not anywhere near 400 or 300 lumens. I wish they were honest, but this is why we post and review. I hope this helps someone with a future purchase.
