Okay. Out at about 75-100 feet the 1W through the optic puts out a better, more usefull beam.
The EverLED in the 2D driven by 3C is a better walking light due to the very generous spill light. The spot will impose itself over the Starlux beam at any distance.
I imagine that I would use the Starlux more than the Eled. But then with lights like the M*gBP74, M*gBP85 etc. I usually don't use either one.
Incidently, with a bright enough bulb... even a smooth reflector can be sweet. The '74 and '85 are bright!
I'm not sure what a "Terralux" is. I single LUX3 in a stock M*g reflector should be pretty nice. Any more than 1 will have optics or small reflectors with them.
Fivemega is the man for reflectors (should he have any in stock!)
Poke around the Sandwich Shoppe for the Minim*gs! Or better yet, LUX3 one and Opalec Newbeam the other.
And hang on! It's one heck of a ride!!!
