MDYB, what bulb configuration is in your black ice? They have 4 different configs available in this same light. I am curious b/c I personally haven't found many LED's to be super bright. About the only benefit I have found with LEDs is power consumption properties are much lower. My petzel has finally given up the ghost and I am in need of find a suitable replacement. So I'd be interested in some more details about your browning? I may have to check them out. Thanks

BTW the petzel wasa goodhunting light, plenty bright and best of all hands free. The only complaint is battery life. Mine held 4 AA's which isn't thatspendy but it seemed to chew em up pretty quickly in continued use situations. They also froze very easily, due to the battery pack design (plastic). In Saskatchewan that isn't a great quality!
