I own a torch light C78 (DX# 29095) and a NF-X8626 (DX# 90382). Both are flood to throw 1AA with a Cree Q3 WC LED. Why is the C78 so much whiter and brighter?

Though it may seem facetious, it's a dead on statement: life is like a box of chocolates... you never know what you're gonna get --- Forest Gump

In all seriousness though, different LEDs different characteristics... Even if it's the same led, you may get a dud or a stud. :naughty:

The lights will also have different bin leds, maybe different drivers and drive levels and more or less efficient optics

These factors will change how bright the lights appear
