Beamshoot comparison to 4Sevens Quark AA/123



For my danish review of Quark AA and Quark 123 I did a comparison with some common AA/CR123 lights and took beamshoots of the lights. I have collected all the beamshoots here.
The lights included are: 4Sevens Quark 123, NiteCore EX10, Fenix P2D, LiteFlux LF3XT, SUreFire Backup, 4Sevens Quark AA, NiteCore D10, Fenix LD10, NiteCore EZ AA, LiteFlux LF5XT, Proton Pro.




The graphic above shows the maximal light output for the different lighs, this is measured with a ceiling bounce.



Next I have combining all the leves in one graph with a log scale, but some lights has a low that is below the minimum scale (Quark AA/123, NiteCore D10/EX10, LiteFlux LF5XT, Proton Pro). For lights with fully adjustable output, only the min and max level is shown, this is NiteCore D10, LiteFlux LF5XT, Proton Pro, NiteCore EX10, LiteFlux LF3XT.



The above graph is a measure of lux at a fixed distance and then scaled to make Quark AA 100%
