Anybody have this one? I'm interested in the throw. If the ad literature can be believed, the run time is excellent and the beam is good (i.e., better than your basic Mag-Lite).
The compact size is very attractive; but if this is just another ho-hum light, I've already got an EverLed... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
Actually, the EverLed is decent. But I want something with more reach, I want it to use standard D or C batteries, and I want it ready-made. My initial plan was to modify a 3D cell MagLite I have; but I've given myself a headache reading about all these different "mods"; they're all rather confusing.
I like the idea of a drop-in replacement bulb a'la EverLed. I realize that the third cell will kick the EverLed up a bit, but mine (in a 2D MagLite) has some artifacts at a distance. Its no biggee up close, like in the house, but annoying outside.
Is the TerraLux any more powerful?
