I would assume it is around 500ma but I dont know for sure
I was thinking of copying Chops E1 head for my new KB1. I think that would be brighter.
thanks

The Nuwai Quantum III uses 762mA on a disposable CR123A cell.
Let me go check and see what it uses on a rechargeable R123 cell...BBS...
Ok, it measures 908mA with the rechargeable.

Cones' review had his pulling 598ma or so, IIRC, on not-so-fresh batteries, so the draw will probably vary a wee bit between Q-III batches. I personally like the fact that it's very small, so fits in just about any pocket I have. While I use the Aleph more due to the two-stage switch, the Lux III and the throw of the reflector in the Q-III means I've used it before just walking around.
