Hi guys, actually if you pop over to the candlepower forums where they discuss flashlights with the same zeal and passion that we discuss blades, you can find more than a few "hotwire" lights that can put that Surefire to shame at less than 1/10 of the cost..

I've got a 1500 lumens one for less than $200, in a 2D maglite host running on rechargeable AAs...:D

so there...:D
