Hi All
Decided to do a runtime timelapse video of 3 different AAA flashlights (actually 4 lights but 2 are LD01). All with freshly charged 900mAh Turnigy LSD NiMh cells.
All running on Max setting, 50cm from the wall, fan blowing across the lights to keep things cool. Ambient temperature is 28deg C.
All of the flashlights were delivered in Dec 2012 and are as follows:
Edit:
===============
Fenix LD01 XPG-R4 (3/26/72lumens)
Thrunite Ti XPE-R4 (3/60lumens)
Preon 1 XPG (gen1) (1.8/8.5/70lumens)
===============
135min video condensed about 5.5 min. In the video every 12 sec = 5 min
Video uploaded on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDyJPhhE8Qw for those who wish to view the variation of light output with time.
From left to right LD01 , Thrunite Ti, Preon1, LD01.
Results as follows: Run time duration:
Preon1: ~60min
LD01: ~90min
Thrunite Ti:~120min
Thrunite has the best throw, Preon1 the floodiest beam, LD01 somewhere in between.
I will try to do a "low" runtime test when i get the time.
Happy holidays to everyone.
