Tryng to decide between these two AA powered lights. Both use same XP-G R5 emitter, but runtimes (efficiency ?) seems to be slightly better on the Fenix - it is also a few $ cheaper.
Quark has the nice low 0.2 lumen mode, which I suspect is useful for reading maps in car at night.
Fenix seems to be a lot better at the high end 180 lumens for 2.25 hrs v 205 lumens for just 1.3 hrs on the Quark.
I know Fenix have a reputation for good regulation without flicker. What about the Quark ?
Have I missed something ?
