Just got my light in. Cheap crap. I don't know who has been passing the koolaid around here but that light isn't any better than a handful of lightening bugs in a mason jar.

comparing lumens to CP is like comparing the ratio of stanley nickels to schrute bucks. They are two totally different things. I haven't seen the 3800 one in person, although im abuot to order three, but the 1000 lumen I have is VERY bright.

Mine came from overseas. Maybe I got a dud, but it ain't all that.

I ordered some from CA and they were the same lights I got from china back when the thread just started.

This is no crap right Here:

I was given a Surefire Lumamax L6 on Wednesday. I took the head lamp out and compared it to the BIG surefire. It blew it away. The streamlight poly stinger I have comes no were close either.

Blackduck, you got the shaft. I have a streamlight, 2 surefires, 2 cabelas XPG xenon lights, and a couple of cyclops, and nothing touches them.
