Nebo Davinci 2000: twice the output of the 1000, and 40 metres less reach
This is worth stating plainly because it looks like a mistake. The Davinci 2000 produces 2000 lumens and reaches 259 metres. The Davinci 1000 produces half that and reaches 299 metres. More light, less distance, and the explanation is the zoom ratio rather than anything being wrong.
Why more lumens can mean less reach
Beam distance depends on how tightly light is concentrated at the centre of the beam, not on the total quantity produced. The 1000 has a 6x zoom. This one has 4x. The wider zoom on the smaller torch focuses its output into a narrower column, and a narrow column of 1000 lumens carries further than a broader spread of 2000.
Which of the two you want depends entirely on the job. If the task is identifying something at the far end of a field, the 1000 is the better torch. If the task is lighting a work area, a yard, a camp or the inside of a building, this one puts twice as much light into it and the 40 metres of reach you gave up were never going to be used.
Davinci 2000 output
High runs 2000 lumens to 259 metres for 2 hours. Medium holds 800 lumens to 170 metres for 5 hours. Low gives 200 lumens to 97 metres for 20 hours. Strobe runs at full output for 2 hours. Note that Low here is 200 lumens against the smaller torch's 100, so the extra capability shows up across the whole ladder rather than only at the top.
Operation and build
A dial selects the mode and a single rear button switches the torch on, so it always starts on the setting you left the dial at. The body is anodised aircraft grade aluminium rated IP67 for water and dust, with a magnetic base. A 2000 mAh 18650 lithium ion cell supplies the power. It weighs 272 grams and measures 184.2 millimetres by 35.1.
