thank you for the collection of links. i received my Sure A2 today. Of course, this model is no longer up to date, but it has charm and a great story, as you can see in the links.
Thanks . Actually last week I started to go through the links, unfortunately some of them don't work anymore (but I am trying to at least find the archived version in archive.org), also a lot of threads are missing pictures. That's unfortunately the price we pay for free image hosting websites, at some point they stop the service and a lot of internet history is lost (that's why I prefer to attach the images directly in the post and not hotlink them). There are also some new threads and discussion that I need to add to the list.
WOW! How come I missed this thread good info on one of my all-time favourite model Surefire lights. I have always liked the A2 and still to this day I have my EDC A2 very beaten up.
