Remember, the Fenix is said to give about 180 lumens. I just got it and have compared it in my backyard at night with my Fenix. It is noticeably brighter than the Fenix. It's another option to consider for those looking in the sub-$50 category. Fenix's warranty is 2 years while Jet Beam's warranty (through the dealer I linked) is a year.
