Fenix PD30 R4 vs R2 [Longer range beam profile]

Both were from http://thephotonshop.co.uk

Fenix PD30 XP-G R4
vs
Fenix PD30 XR-E R2

This is an additional little video which is showing you the two beam profiles at the same target in my garden as the original video, however from the maximum amount of distance away the other side of the garden. This way you get to see more of the spill and how the R4 touches the floor better than the R2 for example. This makes the R4 far more superior for navigation, since you see a wider area in all locations outside the beam.

Now there is an R5... you wouldn't by any chance know how it compares with the R2 and R4 would you?

@MegaDyneSystemsExe Sorry I do not have one.

R2 looks brighter its because it has more focus hotspot, while the R4 is wider. If you perform while light ceiling bounce, the R4 is much brighter.

one light is not better than the other, just depends what ur using it for i guess.

@MegaDyneSystemsExe 180 lumens, eh? You should try the JetBeam BC10 with rechargeables CR123A batteries, and you'd get near 400 lumens with a flashlight as small as your PD20. Of course with primaries CR123A batteries you could get about 240 lumens, always more than your Fenix

@techwg just got my PD20 R5. I didn't quite imagine that much output from a such a small and narrow 3" flashlight.

i'd have to pick the R2 for my immediate needs.

thanks for the beam shots.
