Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Nu-Flare Ultra- Compact 78R91AA Luxeon Rebel 90 6W LED Flashlight - Zoom Focus, Use One AA Battery 100 Lumens, Bright and EfficientCustomer Review: Great light, great bang for the buck but use rechargeables Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this light the same time I also ordered a Fenix LD10 which is just about the same size and also uses just one AA battery. I decided on AA or AAA run flashlights due to me already having several rechargeables in that type and availability in most stores. I intended to use this attached to my shotgun as a tactical light for night confrontations but I started a new job involving the need to look into dark areas, holes and above ceiling tiles in office buildings. I figured this would maybe be more versatile for work since it can be adjusted to flood the area as well as spot beam. I love this light. It lasts on avg about 2 good days of on and off usage at work before it gets noticeably dim and I have to pop in a new rechargeable AA battery. I HIGHLY recommend buying a set of rechargeables because the regular alkalines may be cheap but it gets costly over the long run. This light seems durable and it might be useable for quite some time....or until some much better light technology comes out with affordable prices.
Both lights emit a great amount of light. Fenix is a little brighter at its highest setting (of 5 modes) but also costs about $25 more and eats up AA batteries at the same rate on that mode. Fenix doesn't have the flood setting tho. Then again, Nuflare's spot beam has a square/rectangle shape to it which isn't that big of a deal to me but bugs some people.
Bottom line, if you usually just use your flashlights at max output/highest energy usage like me and prefer to have a light with room flood option, then go ahead and just get a Nuflare over the Fenix. Its almost 2 of the price of 1. I haven't tested either in rugged conditions besides my blue collar job so that consideration is up to you.
Also, if you don't mind using CR123A batteries (that can also be found in rechargeables), Nuflare also makes a light at 220 lumens using 2 of those batts for about $42 currently. Thats twice the lumens for $12 more if you don't mind the battery issue or already have those types.

* Warning: There are some non-Luxeon made counterfeit 1W, 3W, and sometimes even claim 8 Watt LED on the market. They are half as bright at best and have a bluish color beam. Their light will be greatly reduced after just few hours of use due to poor quality and poor heatsink property. They are much cheaper but they are definitely not the quality of Luxeon. They are usually shipped out from Hong Kong. They are also subject to patent infringement problems.
