So, I got my Olight X6 Marauder today and I immediately compared it to my other bright lights. Not that the other lights seem that bright anymore after seeing the X6 at full blast... :naughty:
Here are the contestants:
1. Olight X6 Marauder (proprietary battery pack showing full charge)
2. 50W HID modded Cyclops X-15 (freshly charged car battery)
3. Fenix TK45 (freshly charged Eneloops)
1. Olight X6 Marauder (proprietary battery pack showing full at idle, normal when the light is on)
2. 50W HID modded Cyclops X-15 (freshly charged car battery)
3. Fenix TK45 (freshly charged Eneloops)
All lights are at maximum output.
Camera settings:
Distance from lamps to wall 3,5 m.
My trusty old HID has illuminated my adventures since 2009 and I used to think it was super bright (heck, I used to think the TK45 was really bright too thought not in the same ballpark with the HID). The X6 has better output than my DIY HID and most importantly the beam is completely free of artifacts. This is very important to me. So, I'm a happy camper and will now let the Cyclops retire. The LED era has truly arrived.
