PS I am still undecided on the 1AA I should get. Please keep the opinions coming in!
I still stand on the Quark AA Tactical. You can look up with plenty of reviews.
But for my personal likings, you can program to have any 2 available modes immediately (1)bezel loosen and (2)tighten, from 8 different modes. The forward clickly gives you a momentary on function. Given any type of situation, just click to on with the mode you want immediately is good enough with the Quark AA.
You can re-program the Quark AA to have it ready for several situations:
- for work at the construction site: Medium/Turbo
- when going to the movies: Moonlight/Low
- camping, fishing: Moonlight/High
- Emergency situations: Beacon/High
- and many more programmable ideas depending on you.
It's relatively easy to program the Quark AA and you'll get used to it.
In addition, the knurling was well thought of, easy to hold and feels right, sufficient grip. There are just many more technical features that the Quark AA has that makes it a reliable light.
*EDIT
A friend, dropped his Quark twice on ceramic tile, 2 feet and 5 feet and the light still works perfectly, gotta thank him for that
