Agreed.
My 980L pulled 4.7> amps on several occasions with the exterior of the light at over 150 degrees fahrenheit. https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/2284
After browsing Match's awesome findings, it seems all we're really getting above about 3 amps is a slight increase in brightness and a whole lot of unnecessary heat. After about 15 minutes on high, could not even pick it up. The good news is, didn't fry anything and no reflowed solder!
