Can SST-50 be drived to 900lm on a single 18650?

On DX Ultrafire C8 spec claims it is 900lm on 1x18650.
The closest that comes to my mind from trusted brands is Olight M21 with 500lm.

I couldn't find any reviews of Ultrafire C8, so I don't know what to think. Is it that Ultrafire are so bad, that you cannot trust their claims and nobody takes 900lm thing seriously?

Most Lumen claims are what the emitter can output at max levels- not what comes out the front. Keep looking around- there are many reviews here that often give a good comparison between various lights. THere is also MrGmans actual list of measured lights.

Are you talking about 32592?

Personally if your gonna drop that much I'd go for one of the new models. 31869 looks damn good, and I've read it'll outpower a TK40. Probably about 700 out the front lumens. Very impressive, but not 1250 as advertised.
