Any other f.l. manufacturers using the Nichia CS\'s
Besides Arc and LRI? I have posted in a couple of different threads how impressed I was with my Eternalight Max modified with the Nichia CS LEDs. I wish I had taken before and after beamshots but as I recall from memory the output from the original Eternalight LEDs was roughly similar to that of my Inova X5. Now the modified Eternalight totally blows away the X5 in terms of both area lighting and throw (I still wouldn't call it a throw flashlight compared to a Luxeon). However I imagine these LEDs in such products as a Trek 14 or 19 would make a pretty impressive wide area light, not to mention some of the 5mm led headlights.
