Lumintop TD16 XPL 920lm

After I've got the Prince SS and enjoyed its outstanding quality I decided to pay attention to the mentioned medium thrower. But for some reason it is nearly impossible to find a review on this model. Its description claims 450 meter throw.

There are no reviews because the light is new or no one cares about it?

Strange enough. Here its throw distance rated 531 meters. That effectively kills Armytek Predator Pro, taking into account Armytek's issues with quality control and bloated numbers.

Probably more like 400m.

Does anyone have a formula to calculate beam distance from its intensity. The link above mentioned 50800 CD.

No. Cannot pull the trigger. The clip position is random and not easily user changeable (needs sandpaper work). Not acceptable for me for that price.

Update: comes out that I was lying to myself. Several times I have prepared an order and cancelled it. Finally ordered...

Now I curse myself and look for quality fine grain sandpaper to treat possible clip misalignment

To calculate beam it is this candela divide by 0.25 = 203200. Then square root of 203200 is distance in metres to ansi standard. 450ms.

Thank you so much

Wonder where from that reviewer has got 531 m?

[emoji106] It looks like an lumintop affiliated review ( bit hard to tell from the CPF app ) so perhaps the prototypes had a bit more throw before they settled upon the production version. I'm just speculating of course. Nitecore went through a phase of overestimating throw numbers too, but now they are pretty accurate.
