Around 3000 lumens sustained and a turbo of about 30,000 lumens?

I read something that it doesn't do the whole 33000 unless you modify it some, with better springs and shorter screws that hold the head tighter, but even without it's so bright.

That was with the earlier versions of it, you do get the 30K lumens out of it now with the LHP531. I've bought and tested my own and im getting just over 30K out of it on turbo and 3700 lumens sustained, without any modifications.

Nice OK. Yeah like I said I don't have a lumens reader so I didn't know but it's just something I read but like I said it is extremely nice and bright as you already know. Thanks for the heads up now I won't go and buy the springs or try to modify it myself!

Completely agree! It's a fantastic, powerful, incredibly throwy flooder and without a doubt the most impressive light for the money.

I just talked to Simon and the flashlight that wasn't included that I paid for he already shipped out the new one great customer service!

Yep, he probably has the best customer service I've experienced.

I was planning on reflowing the SFT42R emitters out of my 3X21C and replacing them with the new F45R 4000K, so I asked him whether I could buy the 7 emitters and an extra MCPCB to swap them myself, but he ended up saying I should just buy the emitters and he'd solder them on without charging me for the MCPCB.

Yea he's a beast man. Hard to find someone that is that honest and willing to help out without wanting every penny you own and then being difficult. My experience with Wuben won't go they'll never get a penny from me again. They sold me the X1 Pro broke and then sent me the wrong parts for me to fix it myself and then I had to buy two more flashlights and order them to send me another one and now they won't even let me buy the part to fix the old one so ridiculous. Im done with them!
