It's OEM, so it will probably produce 130 emitter lumens. Look at coolperl's review.
The best way to approximate lumens is to know the current draw.However in this case where boosting is done for the led to get the necessary vF that approximation doesn't work.
ANSI lumens is for the big brands that can afford this type of testing and have the time to do it. This way they look more or less real, however the big benefit for these companies is that they appear as correct and the others not.
Fenix E11: very small, 2 mode, forward click (wasnt in your list, but could be plus), cheap
I have it and at the moment I am thinking to buy one more, there are only 2 minus: cant tailstand and some artifacts in the beamshot
I am waiting Jetbeam BA10 form DD for 25$, its almost the same price as fenix, and it can tailstand and the beam is nice, but the size could be the issue...
I don’t think anything really does much more than 100 OTF lumens in the one AA size does it?
Zebralight does but it’s expensive and it doesn’t do it for long and it’s not that much of an improvement over 100 lumens IMO. I have a Zebralight H51 headlamp.

Nitecore EZ AA the one I got from Boaz is one of my favorite and most useful lights.

He is describing the Nitecore, look around it is reasonably priced and 160 lumens. The cheapest that you will find it is the day after thanksgiving.
