Looking at the specs on my next flashlight(Fenix LD20), and my current flashlight(Neutron 2A) I noticed that the Neutron 2A is tested at 120LM for 2.1hrs and the Fenix LD20 is tested at 180LM for 2.1 hours.
Why are they the same? What technology in the Fenix makes it last as long as the light with 60 less lumen? Both take 2 AA batteries.
The only difference I can see is the LED
Is that the sole reason for the difference? Does anyone know of any good links that talk about the technology in somewhat simple terms? Or am I way off on my assumption that the type of LED is the difference here?
