Hey guys,
I did a night dive yesterday and quickly came to the conclusion that my 90 lumens light clearly wasn't powerful enough.
My buddy was diving with a UK C4 eLED and I was very impressed by its output. After doing some research on the interwebs, I'm getting quite confused
I see a lot of smaller lights that output more lumens than the quite larger C4 (for example). How can, say, 3 x AAA batteries output more than 4 x AA's?
I guess I have a hard time understanding how that can be, simply because I take for granted that the bigger ones will be more powerful. Is there something else, aside from the lumens, to be taken into consideration?
I apologize if this has been discussed before but I couldn't find anything on SB.
Thanks a bunch!
