This table of measurements is based on Don's readings at Budget Light Forum. Most are budget lights, but there are some 4Sevens lights and a not-at-all-budget Varapower 2000 in the list too. The readings are taken with uncalibrated equipment, so the lumen readings are just estimates, but provide a good basis of comparison.

You can sort the list by any column. If you want to group the AA lights by brightness, click twice on "Lumens at 2 min" to sort from high to low, then click on Battery and scroll down to the AA NiMH section.
