I know this question has been asked before, but most post seem to be a little dated.
I currently have a Olight S1a, that has been a great all around light. I use it for work every night, but I find that the beam is a too floody and i prefer a tale switch and simple UI for a work light. I end up using Turbo (600 lumens) to make up for the lack of throw, and end up changing batteries every night. I am considering Fenix LD09 and LD11. Both are discontinued, but seem to be available at a pretty good price. Im not sure if I will be disappointed in the output of the LD's at only 220/300 Lumens, but they seem to have a little more throw from what I can tell.
Is there any other manufactures or models you guys could recommend. It seems that most manufactures don't list beam profiles (flood/throw)
I am looking for a single, 14500/AA tail switch only (forward or reverse) pocket clip, and narrow body like my Olight, or LD09. Under $50 if possible.
