Kill Light's own figures for every color it sells for this light (all in the one light). The distance column keeps the maker's words, because makers define distance differently. The calculated column is the ANSI FL1 throw from the maker's candela: where the beam falls to 0.25 lux, about full moonlight.

ColorCandelaMaker's distance claimANSI FL1 throw from candela (calculated)

ANSI FL1 throw

The flashlight standard's beam distance: how far until the beam falls to 0.25 lux, about full moonlight. It is 2 × √candela meters, so it can be checked against the maker's own candela.

Kill Light also says, for the light as a whole: "Up to 750 yard target illumination" (750 yd (686 m)).

The maker’s FL1 distance does not match its candela. For white, red, green, Kill Light lists an FL1 distance that differs by more than 3% from the 2 × √candela meters the standard gives for its own candela; both figures are shown.

IR range depends on the night vision unit behind it, so IR rows carry no calculated throw. Distances that are not ANSI FL1 ("target illumination", "eyes at", identification) are the maker's own field claims and do not compare across brands.
