Re: Sydney 2007
It's bad, i haven't bought many lights since last get together, feel ashamed of being a flashaholic.
From memory, i only acquired the following
3D-Mag Led (just the led-bulb)
Surefire A2 (who doesn't have one anyway since our last meeting)
3 CFP logo Safe (Pal)-lights coming from Wit's end
Benchmade-Benchmite knife
I've been waiting and waiting for a good single AA light.
Although i like the L1D-CE's output and throw, somehow the finish and the internal contacts isn't my liking, i prefer the quality of the Lumapower M3 transformer, but only wish it would be brighter. The Jetbeam Mark IIx seems like the choice, but it seems to suffer at times with tolerance with threads, and is dimmer than the LID-CE, maybe it's due to the OP reflector.
I've been wanting to get an HID, still waiting for prices from LiteMania.
Delvance, your RS623 is still the best light i have seen. I'm still amazed at the sheer brightness hidden in an ordinary looking Maglite
