Has anyone compared TNVC's 600 lumen SF conversion to the 900L P7 Conversion Head?

eBay listed 900 Lumen P7 Conversion head for Surefire

I just installed one of the TNVC 600 Lumen units on a Surefire M961, I need to wait till dark to really check it out. It doesn't APPEAR to be nearly as bright as my Fenix TK40.

One plus for the TNVC unit, it is the same diameter head as the Surefire so I can install the Surefire Diffuser on it for "Room Cleaning", and then open it up if I'm using my AR in a field.

I tried it out last night and it is a HUGE improvement over the factory Surefire lamp! It is definitely not as nice of beam as the Fenix TK40, of course how could it be with a smaller reflector.

If you need a weapons light, this is well worth the money. On the P7 head I guess I'll have to grab one of those to compare the two.

I went ahead and ordered the Lumens Factory P7:

I can't see any difference between the output on the TNVC 600 Lumens head and the Lumens Factory 900 Lumens head (other than the fact that the machining is NICE on the Lumens Factory unit)

I went ahead and mounted it on my Surefire M6 Guardian. It looks GREAT on it! The output is slightly brighter than the factory M6 head.
