I own the LED 500 and before that the LED 300, i also have the optional cannister, the LED 500 is rated at 500 lumens, its significantly brighter thnn the LED 300 and my Solus back up. I like it. I wouldnt bother with the cannister part tho, it does make the torch smaller and you can mount it Goodman style if you want, but for the additional cost I find it a bit gimmicky, its like you can pretend you have a real cannister light even tho you dont, a cannister is such due to the battery requirements and this is not the case with the LED 500, that aside I like it, its very bright, small enough in its standard form to be easily used and the battery life, 8AAs, is significant its reported to be 12 hours at full power with up to 30 hours of usable, I cant confirm that but I have had more than 8 hours with no sign of dimming. The LEDs 300/500 have been around for a couple of years or more, I have never heard of any problems with the standard LED configuration. Id recommend one, nice price too.
