You get what you pay for. Just remember that they're not using ANSI Lumens in their ratings. They can basically say it's as bright as they want just to try and sell more lights. I saw one on that page, 3800 Lumens for $65 lol. Sure

If you wanted to pick up one of the cheaper ones, I'm sure they're a decent light but idk if I'd trust carrying it everyday or using it for work.

I built a pocket rocket, and it is by far the best light I own and I have tons of lights.
