Any Jetbeam PC20 owners? What runtimes are you getting?

The Jetbeam websites states 2 hours on high (410 ANSI lumens). With my AW RCR123A's, I'm only getting 47 minutes.

Wait a minute, Jetbeam claims 30 minutes on turbo(550 ANSI lumens) on the PC10 with RCR123. How is this possible?

What's the max RCR mah you can get?
Is it possible to get a little more runtime out of the 550 mode?

Based on my experience with my PC20, I'm guessing the PC10 will have a runtime of less than 20 minutes on turbo with an AW RCR123.

The only way you'll get longer runtimes is with an RCR123 that has a lower cut off voltage. I'm guessing this is how they measured their runtime. My AW cuts off around 3.5V.

Is anyone with a PC20 able to get the full 410 lumens on 2 cr123's? Only reason I don't want the PC10 is because i won't to be able to get high lumens with a regular CR123 battety since it only gets 550 on if you use a rechargeable.

If the PC20 does get over 400 with regular CR123's I am definitely getting that over the PC10.

Jetbeam claims 410 ANSI lumens with regular CR123A's. I don't have any primaries to test mines, but I don't see why it wouldn't do 410 lumens.
