That's been mentioned before. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it is not the brightest flashlight in the world. Not by far. This is a good place to start if you're looking for bright lights. Even if it was 4100 lumens, the Sublimator has it beat by 5-10 times as much.

There will never be a "Most Powerfull" anything.
It's like finding the biggest number.

As soon as you find, buy, build, or invent the brightest light someone will come behind you with better components and 1 up you.

Just get something nice and be happy.

I'd much rather have a cooler running POB than something with probably a 10 minute battery life. There's really not much use for such a heat monster as that wicked light.

Look at it this way, 4,000 lumens for 10 minutes generates a total of 40,000 lumens for you.

A Surefire 9P with Malkoff at 230 lumens for 2.5 hours (150 minutes) results in 34,500 lumens or a close number to the above. (A 2x18650 body with M60 will result in 55,000 total lumens over the run of the cell)

Check the link KeyGrip gave you,the Wicked Laser Torch is Mac's version of a Mag623.You can build one with longer runtime and at a lower price.If you overdrive it at 15.6V it will be even brighter.
