Those are production lights by HDS quite many years ago. Although they are very nice lights, they are outdated and superseded by the clicky and rotary. Are you sure you still want to get them? If you do, you always have the choice to get the emitters modded later on to something more efficient.
Absolutely right. I gave my point above because not many people bother about extreme runtimes and on the other hand most are bothered about max output. I am fine with 60 lumen max but not many are.Actually, the LED is the only thing outdated. The old series were much more efficient on the lower levels, with runtimes approaching 1 month continuous. The newer versions low runtimes are somewhere around 128 hours.
... the EDC series are before the Legacy lights and parts are not enter changeable.
Legacy is neither a model nor a series of lights. Legacy products refer to lights that Henry made in the past. The EDC BASIC 42 XR, BASIC 42 XR GT & ULTIMATE 60 XR are all Legacy products for which many parts are still available. Click on the link in post #10 to see the entire family of Legacy products.
+1! The elusive XR would be my vote. The reflectors work great with any of the modern emitters.As the owner of an original HDS Ultimate 60 GT, I'd recommend getting the U60 XR.
You will appreciate the added run time.
It was my understanding that the "legacy" lights were the Ra and HDS that look like the current models but don't have Acme threads. It was to differentiate so people didn't buy acme threaded stuff for v-sharp lights.
As someone who has owned a EDC Basic and EDC Ultimate lights I can assure you the parts do not enter change. I also own the Ra Clicky and Twisty and they have a different body. The same body as the current lights but different thread. Yes the the discontuned lights are all legacy lights.
