What is the light output in Lumens, on low and high? Which version of the Cree XP does this have - XP-G, XP-G2, or ???

500 Lumens and no clue what chip but if your good with identifying them, when focused into a tight beam you get a perfect silhouette of the diode. :P

I'm not sure about the exact numbers, but the output is on the week side. Much weeker then my other flashlights.

My package says "80 Lumens Max". I love mine. Very bright when batteries are fresh. Just be sure to use good batteries. I use rechargeable and they usually only last me a night or two before the light starts to fade away.

my X5L is adj. low, med. & high @224 lumens, smaller compact version[C5L] is 100 lumens unless amazon has an old style mine has 3v. cr123 batt.One thing I can tell ya about viridian lazers they willnot come on if it's cold[ 40?]

Lumins don't seem to mean much as far as brightness. I finally went by colortemp. Higher the temp the brighter. I just used a dimmer.

I believe it is approx. 2304 lumens , hope this helps! Don't get hung up on the wattage of a led fixture but more important is how many lumens per watt , the better quality like Cree are setting the standards!

I am unsure of the exact lumen value, but a decent 7W CREE LED should produce at least 250 lumens (can be as much at 400), and the 4x 1.5w LED's around the sides should probably produce at least 50 lumens each.I use this as a reverse light in my truck and it made a huge difference to the backup camera at night, these little lights are able to light up a fairly substantial area behind my truck at night.

It sounds like your XL50 might be defective, I've looked around and no one else is complaining about run time. I guess I'm wrong about the lumen comparison but my XL100, which I bought from Amazon, states clearly on the Maglite package that it has 83 lumens. The Maglite webpage for the XL50 says 104 lumens. Either Maglite has made a mix up, or no one yet owns both flashlights.

No manufacturer information for Lumen output. However, it is a very bright LED bulb, that I find as bright as any very good LED mag light. I view this as a self defense product first, however, with the convenience of a powerful flashlight added

The CREE lights use a special 3.7v rechargeable. They are larger than AAs, which, BTW, only put out 1.5v (1.2 if using rechargeable AAs. Could that be your issue?

It doesn't really matter, why are you asking since the LED needs no servicing and Cree LEDs are now only a slight bit higher efficiency, not enough to matter on a value priced light.

my single hi power upgrade works like a charm, my old yellow plastic surefire used a incandescent 6V p-60 so the full power cree led made this old light burn like never before. I do see insert models that have the 5 mode driver too, in hindsight I wish I would of got that model so power output could be cut back and save battery drain. I would measure your old reflector in mm and see if it matches.

A specification, published at a Factory Direct web site in Canada, states the "-Brightness: 20 lumens of light." Direct quote. I can concur, the LED is an early design and it tends to hover in the bluer hues. But don't let the lumens fool you. Higher lumens flash lights are "tactical" and are not useful for performing work. I use the Stanley 95-112w, for a lot of jobs, and it works well. The light is in the place I need it. 20 lumens over a 6 inch area, up close is plenty of light.

It would appear the package is a FL5w10L ("L" for Low Power??) when the unit I bought in hand here is a FL5w10. All other literature on the W10 on other sites says "up to 500 Lumen" Since it has high and low power, and I tested it with a Gossen LunaPro and it put out a wee bit over 500 lumen at 10'. The confusing part here is the W9 is suppose to be 192 lumen, so I don't know where the 120 lumen may have come from... and even older package? Good light at one of the best prices on the net.

It should be noted that "lumen" can mean many things depending on how you obtain a lumen measurement. At one foot away with the "zoom" at max spread the light produced 4800~4900 lux which is about 450 lumens/sq ft. Though when focus to a point the light produced over 90,000 lux which is about 8,300 lumens/sq ft. Unless you can find definitive data that explains the lumen of this light (or any other light in existence) the advertised brightness of a flashlight is meaningless. It's would be better to look up the datasheet for the Cree XML emitter and search for visual examples of the light (using quality 3.7V 18650 Li-Ion bats of course).

Peter, I looked back at my orders and I bought a UTG- 2 in 1 Tactical LED Flashlight with Red Laser here at amazon and paid 66.25 and sold by.- Optics Planet,Inc... The light has 150- Lumen of light output and 500- Meter Laser... I've liked mine very much I've gotten Presure Switches on each side of the trigger one for light & other for laser. And when I hit them whatever I'm aiming at is dead. my brothers or using it out in south tx and want them mounted on some AR-15's. Mine is mounted on a GSG-22 and I take Ear shots... Hope this helps you somemore good luck in your search my friend. John B.

sorry it took so long to respond, send it back, I bought 5 units no 2 are the same, they may look similiar, QC for CREE is horrible, even the ULTRAFIRE batteries are of different lengths, charging times and even after a full charge, they "drop off", that is NO power

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, I was on vacation. The Lumen output led lenser H14R has two settings High 220 low 30. Thanks
