Overall I am not impressed by the Inova T3, compared to my SureFire L4. Like many people said, the T3 is mainly designed for "throw". But it lacks so much "spill" it's almost useless for most applications. Almost like trying to use a laser to see a target. I think for them to market it as a tactical police light is troublesome. Especially for a LED light.
The L4, while it does not have the intense hot spot like the T3, it makes up with the beautiful flood of spill light. Overall I feel it is more useful in short to medium range. There is enough light for most jobs.
Side note: Surefire claims 65 lumens for the L4, and Inova claims 85 lumens for the T3.
My 2 cents, cost not a factor.
