I got some DX lights that came with them. The batteries lasted longer than the lights

Regarding watts... A 1W led driven at 1W will burn through these batteries in 2-3hrs.
As usual on blinkies that claim high wattage leds, the led wattage is irrelevant as the 1W or 1/2W leds are almost always underdriven.
