So lumens and candela are sort of like speaker wattage vs speaker efficiency? I don't mean that as a question, just trying to make an analogy. Sounds like candela is closer to human perception of brightness, and lumems is… something else.Surefire X300 Turbo is what I'd recommend- less lumens more candela. These two are NOT the same thing, though you'll find that there is often an inverse correlation. Higher candela lights tend to be a bit warmer.
SureFire X300 Turbo
• 650 lumens
• 66,000 candela
SureFire X300 Ultra
• 1,000 lumens
• 11,300 candela
