At 5A my calculations suggest 2000 lumens

seems like the same box as the apex too

Looks like those are the original Solarstorms not the upgraded versions.

Exactly.

Ric listened to his customer base (us!), customized the light for maximum performance within the hardware’s capabilities, and still kept the pricing very reasonable.

I can’t wait to mod one.

Great options by DX and Manafont, but as others have said they’re only about 2000 lumen. Great potential with these though for those with modding skills to bump up the lumens with a driver mod!

This is not helping my resisting of buying this torch!
