That candela figure works out to an effective positive identification distance of 175 yards and visual impairment out to 24 yards, both calculated from the published beam data. It runs on 18650 and is not rechargeable. It weighs 22.8 oz in an aluminum body 7.52 inches long. Measured against the 362 handheld lights in the index, it lands among the brightest 10 percent for output (6,200 lumens), in the most intense quarter for beam intensity (257,000 candela), among the heaviest 10 percent for weight (22.8 oz), and on the pricier side for price ($150). It is one of 71 entries in the index that qualify as a light in the same 4,000 lumen and up class. The closest listed comparison is Acebeam X20-R (LUXEON HL4X), the same brand's light in the same 4,000 lumen and up class, priced at $149.
