Some pretty amazing new lights out there now. The Tiablo ACE puts out 700 lumens for 3.5 hours on rechargeble 18650 size batteries. Basically one 18650 is the size of two CR123's and I've been using one for a few years in lights designed for two CR123 batteries. https://www.4sevens.com/product_info.ph ... cts_id=692
If you want to stick with AA batteries, the Fenix TK40 puts out 630 lumens on 8 AA batteries, either alkaline, recharcheable, or lithium. https://www.4sevens.com/product_info.ph ... cts_id=696
Seems like just recently it was a big deal for an LED light to break the 100 lumen barrier. The brightest LED flashlight I currently own puts out 130 lumens and it will easily light up the shed a little over 100 yards from my deck.
