Ive never tried a lynx but my mirage kicks arse.
I have a carlsile also and have tried several other torches and none compare to GTT, IMHO.

Your centerfire is a Lynx. So, if you have ever run just the center fire, you have run a Lynx.

I have a Lynx but I got to try a Cheetah and wow was it ever cool!!!!!!
I like both but if I were going to work bigger I would go for a Cheetah!
I also have a Barracuda which I love!!!
