Hi,
I was wondering which lights you would pick for the most energy efficient for the single AA and two AA flashlight? Disregarding interface, which lights give you the most efficiency (lumens vs run time).
Not sure if I should quality lumens vs runtime...because how do you compare 0.2 lumens running for 1200 hours vs. 200 lumens for 2 hours, and every flashlight has different modes. But take a shot at it.
As a small divergence...how would you quantify efficiency? Area under the runtime curve?
200 lm * 2 hr=400 lm*hrs
0.2 lm * 1200 hr = 240 lm*hrs
I'll start off with my picks, but I'm by no means an expert, so please chime in:
