Instead of going off advertised numbers why not just measure the current draw and figure the run time based off your battery? Or even better actually do a runtime test with your exact setup?Anyone know the runtime on 2 cr123 primaries?
fresh eddie fresh: I would recommened you getting the M61NLLLL, you'll be surprised on how bright it is. I keep mine in a G2 running on a 17670, and it gets used a lot. One thing is when Gene stops making them for Dan we may never see another run of them. I believe you know I'm a big Malkoff nut, so pick you one up.
Though not close to being the brightest light I have, the 219LLL is becoming one of my go to lights. It kicks out plenty of light in the dark and I'm still on the original set of batteries. I'm too cheap to do a runtime test, as fun as it would be to throw a fresh set of primaries in there and just let er cook until it dies... I just can't bring myself to do it! I'm unsure of how to test at the tailcap? I think this will be my camping light for a long time.
that's an awesome idea. what host specifically?I have one set up in a 2s2p cr123a host for a long running 10 year shelf life emg light
FWIW, I have a M61L 219 and it is my favorite/most used light. Great runtime, good brightness, and great color rendition. I need to pick up a LL or LLL for my G2 as an emergency/power outage light...
Thanks for the heads up Glock. I will give a 6pm report (24 hr) report this evening and a 6am (36 hr) report tomorrow morning. After that I will check it every hour although I won't report anything until I see dimming, or hit another 12 hr mark - whichever comes first.
I see a lot of M61L 219 talk going on here. My favorite light also until the M361N-LMH came out. For me, the extra 4 levels (I always use H/L rings) slightly outweighed the increased color rendering of the 219. Please Gene, come out with an M361-LMH 219 so I can say that my wildest dreams have indeed come true!
