How does the seller get-off saying this is a 1600 lumen light, when it only uses a 1000 lumen LED module, AND it doesn't even use 10W?

I haven't verified the specs but I was just looking for a bright flashlight, solid and compact. It was all of the above and cheap. I would prefer rechargeable but this is one of the brightest small flash light I have ever seen. I have a couple high quality LED flashlights for night dog walking and short commute/biking, which I thought were fine, this one is brighter.

Good question. There are many people now selling lights saying they have more lumens than the manufacture says the max is. Cree states the max for this one here http://www.cree.com/LED-Components-and-Modules/Products/XLamp/Discrete-Directional/XLamp-XML

For the price I think there extremely bright and blinding. In my opinion I feel it's a great light regardless of its output. If you want a brighter light pay a ton more and you'll have it.

There is no international standard measurement of a light source when it comes to lumen. The light will produce apox 450 lum sq/ft at 1 foot away over an area of 1.5 feet at max spread. When max focused the light will produce well over 8,000 lum sq/ft at 1 foot away.You only need around 5~10 lum sq/ft to clearly see objects

I can only speak for the one I received from seller "Wedoit"6000K, very white, no blue. Not a 6500K 'bulb'Almost 300 lumen IMO

I looked this up and it the 170 lumens is not so. This lantern provides as follows: High for brightest light; 340 lumens; runs 30 hours * Medium for bright light and longer run times; 175 lumens; runs 70 hours * Low provides extended run times for when less light is needed; 33 lumens; runs 295 hours - Red LED (one red LED) * Red LED High - Steady (night vision preserving mode);10 lumens; runs 235 hours * Flash SOS mode for emergency signaling; 10 lumens; runs 430 hours.Bob

I don't know about lumens exactly, but I measured the output with a light meter and it registers about 15k to 20k lux (1 lux is equal to 1 lumen per square meter, I think). They say 20k lux is legit for growing plants. I ordered 4 different types of grow lights, and this actually has the highest output (including a 60 dollar T5 setup), it just doesn't cover a whole lot of area, although definitely covers more than the other under $20 LED lights. I may buy quite a few of these.

I don't know the lumens. Mine has HWA/WYS Ultrafire engraved on it, shipped from the US, it was advertised as 1600 lumens, but I highly doubted. My only suggestion is to go with the brand names and if possible, ones that shipped from the US.

I wouldn't buy it. Mine is no where near a 1000 lumens. Maybe 200 if that. Just my 2 cents.

1600 lumens doesn't tell me how many watts your light is pulling so I can't answer your question if you can tell me how many watts I can answer your question. Or how many amps and volts I can tell you as well. Lumens are a measure of light not power.

It is 1000 lumens. This light is super bright and is very small, approximately 5 inches long.

Amanda, I know that it provides 3780 lumens, however, I do not have any photometric information at this time. That factory is in the process of moving, but if I can get anything further from them I will get back to you. Sorry -- Barry

It's a little over 100 lumens. Those who wrote 200 and 300, are only comparing output to generic lights that are fraudulently rated higher than their actual output.

Their claims seem a bit off, it's more like 1200 to 1500 lumens. Elsewhere datasheets show 67 lumens per watt Epistar LEDs and current measurements show 23W INPUT, so you do the math subtracting for inefficiencies since output must be lower than input power. It's still a good lumen:price ratio but the actual lumen range is helpful to know for comparative purposes.

The package says it's energy efficient, full spectrum lasts 5000 hours with lumen output 670, at least the one I got which was A19 frosted 60W

According to most conversion charts I've seen, 1600 lumens is roughly equivalent to a 100 watt bulb. However as others have responded, this light does seem brighter to me - part of that may be that it is rated at a Color Temperature 4000 Kelvin which is a fairly bright white (but not quite daylight) fixture. If you remove the diffuser and look at it while it's on, it's extremely bright. Look at it while it's off and it is very geeky nerdy interesting! :)

I wrote a review on the light after I bought it and was quite skeptacle on the brightness of the claimed 1200 lumens. I saw the pic and was impressed as well but now that I have it not so much. I'm not buying it ... The photo that is. Hope helps.

I know that the seller has different lumens available depending on your needs. If you contact seller you can get all your questions answered. Seller configured my LED's to my personal needs, so they are not a one size fits all application.

Dear Kooz, thank you very much for your message. The lights is 105 lumens. The discription is wrong. I'm sorry for that. Yours Dailyart

I don't see .39 amps anywhere in the specs. The unit I have is very bright and based on comparisons to other lights it seems plausible that it's really 10W. It's bright, at least the one I have.
