From my own personal point of view - it gets worse than that. Not only are there no cut-offs on the beams, the run times vs the charge times are not something I want to live with.

A Piko3 is speced at 3 hrs charge tine vs only 1.5 hrs of run time at max. A Taz 1200 is speced at a minimum of 4 and possibly a 14 hr charge time (computer USB connection) and only a runtime of 1.5 hrs on high.

I'm running more lumens, have beam cutoffs, and can live with a 1.5 hr charge time vs a 9 hr run time.
