Malkoff M61LL vs. Surefire P60L

z_Captains1911 · Dec 6, 2010

I received my M61LL today, and to my surprise, it is not as bright as a Surefire P60L, although the M61LL has a higher lumen rating. The P60L is brighter up close and at distance. Furthermore, the M61LL appears warmer in color than both the Surefire P60L and my Malkoff M60L. I am wondering if perhaps I was sent a M61WLL that was mislabeled, which would explain why it's dimmer than expected.

What do you guys think, does this sound normal?

I know this thread is 3 months old but I thought the same exact thing at first. It seems the big difference is that the P60L has a whiter tint than the M61LL. The M61LL has more spill with less spot, it may seem dimmer but I after using both for a while side by side that you are getting more overall output out of the Malkoff. Also check them after the P60L runs for 15 minutes, it will thermally regulate and dim.

And then there is the runtime, no competition there at all.
