This is probably a really stupid question but I am new to flashlights and Google does not produce an answer...
I am familiar with overall run time/output charts and how the light output drops if the light is constantly on due to heat.. But my question is, if my battery level is, say, low to medium, would I still be able to get full lumen brightness if I needed to use it? Or would my output be similar to the line I see on the charts? For example, if I have a 500 lumen light and I've used my light over a period of a few weeks so it's about 50% full, would my initial lumen output be 500 lumens when I turned it on? Or would I only be able to get 200ish?
Thanks for bearing with me, I appreciate any help!
