Greeetings,

I currently have the Quark 123² turbo X and have been toying with the idea of the Maelstrom x10.

I want to know how much brighter and throw the X10 has over my Turbo X. I know the Lumen ratings for each, but want a "visible to the eye" experience or comparison.

I know that I've read somewhere that it takes double the lumens to see a significant differnce between lights. Is this the case with these two?

Thanks in advance :)

It is a little more complicated, as it is the combination of extra lux and lumens which contributes to how we perceive brightness.

My Maelstrom X10 makes my Turbo X look dull. It is easily much brighter and I find the wide spill beam useful. I like the throw of the X10, it seems to light up everything. If you get lucky, you may end up a U2 for a little more lux and lumens.
