Just to share my finding on RC40. I got her last weekend. She out throw my TK70 and modified TN31.
Lucky for me to skip TK75 because at least RC40 outperform my TK70 and lightly modified TN31. Wonder how did Fenix set the specification for TK70 to be 130500cd where I can't seem to get close to that number.

Below is the measurement, using TK70 as reference to find the multiplication constant. Candela measurement is at distance 3meter. She is bright, really bright, I got 3800lumens on mine. Although TK70 candela is lower than specification, I still use TK70 as reference because by comparing her output to other flashlights for example S6330 and Terminator, I believe my TK70's output is not far away from 2200 lumens as advertised.
