I am quite impressed with this thing. For the money its a freakin' steal. The throw is awesome. The only other LED light I have to compare it to is my PentagonLight L2 3W. I have a hard time telling which throws better myself. I think the SL4AALux might beat out the Penty L2 by just a hair in the throw department because of the bigger reflector and how tight the spot is - its a VERY tight beam! The Penty puts out noticeably MORE light, in the form of a much better spill. The SL has "adequate" spill however.
In the size/portability department the Penty L2 obviously wins here. The SL4AALux is WAY bigger. ( I realize they are different classes of lights ).
When it comes to tint, the Penty wins solidly again. THe SL4AALux has a noticeably blue tint to it. This is of course a product of the famed "Luxeon Lottery." Its' not terrible, though and I'm not complaining for the measly $23 I paid for it.
My conclusion is that its' a GREAT light for the money, a real winner in the "bang for the buck" catagory. If you've been on the fence considering this light - GET IT!
