    I may have gone overboard - sense check needed :)

    It's not like I bought the U11 through you or anything dazed1. Wait... :)

    A quick look suggests it's similar to the Manker U11 I already have. What makes it better? (and worth twice the money!)

    Here's what's arrived so far: From left to right: LED Lenser T7M - I should have listened and skipped this. It's large, and not particularly bright. Nothing wrong with it per se, just better options available for less money Acebeam EC35 CW - I like quite a bit. Nice brightness spread, and...

    Review: Convoy C8 Clear (XP-L HI, 1x18650)

    Thanks for the review! I have one of these on the way. Key difference to the black version? As far as I can tell, it's an AR coating on the lens, and a copper DTP board.

    Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't think that light is for me. It looks like something very resilient you buy for emergencies. I'm an office worker living in London, hopefully I won't have need for such a thing :) The EagleTax D25A/C, I'm not sure what justifies the price over other lights...

    Hi parametrek, You look familiar :) Any suggestions where to get batteries from / which to get (in case I have a problem with Gearbest?) I've found the Convoy shop on Aliexpress, and can use Fasttech too. I think both have issues with sending batteries to the UK though.

    MAGA - You realise I'm now going through the list of flashlights you bought to see if anything catches my eye. The advice I was expecting was - you've bought a load of stuff, now wait until it arrives, and see what you use before buying anything else! :)

    I may have gone overboard - sense check needed :)

    I haven't bought any flashlights for several years until yesterday, and the only one I did buy was a ~$15 Cree 3W thing, I don't really know the spec. As it was black Friday, I decided to check out the sales, that led to me buying an LEDLenser T7M Then I started reading, on Candlepowerforums...
