Some experimentation. Draw your own conclusions.
Garrity 2D G-Tech. Had a decently bright and nice enough beam KPR102 in it. I had grabbed 4 Rayovac XPR102s marked "HPX21" at Walmart.
Tried all three in the Garrity. None would focus as tight as the KPR even though I really worked with one. Thus I cant say whether they are as bright as KPRs in that same light. Oh, and a Mag Xenon Star 2D in this light makes an almost unusable TIGHT beam!
Coleman 2D Large Head Camping light. With a KPR it is decent. With a Mag Xenon Star it is tight and bright! With a Rayovac XPR102 it would not make a very nice or tight beam.
Coleman 3D. With a KPR103 nice and bright. With a Radioshack XPR103 not as tight or bright. With a Mag Xenon Star 3Cell A VERY BRIGHT nice and tight beam.
Garrity/Ozark Trail 2D (with 3 Cs in it) nicely shaped beam, never as bright as I think it should be. With any of the Rayovacs, not as nice. With the Xenon Star 3Cell it would be perfect with some tweaking.
I guess what I have learned is any Xenon PR bulb besides a Mag is not worth it. For everything else Krypton or Halogen.
Hope this helps somebody!
