Yeah, like I said I had originally misread the specs. Don't even bother reading my rubbish. I could have deleted it but I left it for historical purposes
It is honestly hard to beat the UDR. That is why I carry one on thousands of dangerous Acres. Dangerous as in the land and animals. The only reason I started with $50 lights is I had a $50 gift card. No other reason. For many years already all of my lights have been very high end stuff. I will not get another light like that until Surefire replaces it. Or another top American company bests it. The Timascus Hanko in my pocket is much brighter than that A5. I replaced the Nichia's with XPL's. High CRI is not my priority in that light. I need a glove though. It still is much brighter than any $50 light on the website we are speaking of. In fact I have some plastic rectangle light I forget the name, it is a good light. It takes 4xaa lithium and one XHP is much brighter than any of those.
Just forget this thread please. I really appreciate everyone teaching me. However this really let's my stupidity shine. You would think that after this many years I would know better. I fell for a typical newbie trap. At least I already have a UDR.
Edit: the plastic light I was speaking of is a PrincetonTec Tec 40 modified to accept a drop in XHP 70.2 module. It has additional heatsinks. For it's size, weight, form factor and run time it is a nice light. Certainly nicer than it started out
Before someone says there is no XHP capsule, it was custom fabricated. I have 10 of them and, no they are not for sale.
Edit2: I did manage to find lights that are not 50 bucks but not expensive either that easily throw much further than the UDR. They also have much more candella. However the key thing is I would not count on them in time of need. I will count on Surefire! For one thing I do not even know that those claims are true. Although they were from some of the more reputable companies but still Chinese. The reason I do not own a Streamlight HL5 even though it has a 70.2 is the crazy charging system. I own all the current Surefire lineup and think they are much nicer than Streamlight. Before you say I am a rich jerk, They made me a very nice deal for purchasing them all. What I find interesting is there brightest light is a WML. I actually prefer lasers on firearms. I am not a LEO.
Okay, hopefully we forget this thread. It served to make me look very stupid. I do appreciate very much those that answered my questions. I am actually surprised that I fell for this at this juncture.
