Coast. People think it's the same as Led Lenser, but they parted ways some time ago.
Spy007 seems decent enough.
Rayovac

May I suggest to put them in alphabetical order, gather all the names, period, then sort in three groups according to CPFer's preference: Best, good, mediocre. This would make a really nice sticky.


Lumens Factory


If it weren't for you specifying quality brands you'd have Trustfire, Ultrafire, Spiderfire, Uranusfire, <insertrandomwordhere>fire

You totally forgot FandyFire :sick2:

Ok I've picked 5 the JetBeam E3S (155 lumens), the JetBeam Raptor RRT-0 (255 lumens), the Sunwayman V10R TI, the Klarus P1C (245 lumens) and the Klarus MIX6 TI (75 lumens).

As you can see they range from 75 lm to 255 lm, either stainless, titanium, or normal and a use of either a AA, AAA , or a CR123A.

I'm looking for one that 1 it puts out enough lumens to light up a room 2 and at the same time will last the longest whilst turned on and 3 looks excellent and made with excellent craftsmanship

Please help me find the one any more questions please ask =]

So far I've gotten -
- The Ledlenser - P3 on 01.09.11
Pros - very small for EDC, Adjustable beam, uses popular AAA's
Cons - not enough light for me (16 lumens), over priced ($50)
- JetBeam - BC40 on the 11.09.11
Pros - All round good flashlight
Cons - Uses 18650's, but difficult for a EDC
- Wickedlasers 'The Torch' on 28.09.11 i ordered it and i think around the 20th.10.11 i received it
Pros - Very Bright, Love how you can cook eggs on the lens, light a (drum) fire on those cold nights, its pretty much a torch and a lighter.
Cons - Not safe around children, other people who arent aware of how hot it gets, and the main biggest con I have found is its Such an effort when it comes to recharging who can only get the special batteries from the website so make sure you order 2 not 1, even extra 1 costs $35 and you will have to wait 1 month minimum before it arrives and charging is technical at first.
- Xeccon - 75W HID Searchlight on the 03.11.11
Pros - Probably the brightest flashlight I have, very good value for money $181 Au Purchased and posted from ebay, 7,500 lumens (probably actually around 5,000ish), even the battery has a light on it as a back up. You even get a carry case with it.
Cons - Hmm.. Uses a unique battery, and the flashlight it self is probably too big for some.
- Jetbeam - E3S on the 06.11.11
Pros - Beautifuly designed, smallest AA battery operated flashlight with the highest output (only 90mm) (155 lm), stainless steel, excellent for EDC
Cons - may be slightly heavy for the size (well it is made out of stainless steel), may scratch easliy with your keys in your pocket.
- Jetbeam Raptor RRT-0 R5, Sunwayman V10R Ti, Klarus P1C, Eagletac D25c mini
Pros - These are all excellent EDC's with between 209 - 255 lm's and under 100mm
my #1 is the Eagletac because its only 70mm! and puts out 209 lm's !
cons - the Eagletac and Klarus can only use CR123A's however the others have extenders for AA use.

Leupold has been offering modular lights for a few years now. I've had Pelican lights with the Browning name on them. Brownell's has announced a tactical type light with their name on it.
