I am looking for a backup slash real use duty light in rechargeable or AA category. I am an LE/Security Instructor for a government contractor which issues the mini-mag to officers the mini-mags holster is part of a very high profile uniform and the officer must carry it. Therefore I am looking for a light that puts out anywhere from 120 to 400 lumens OTF, with a reasonable price tag and could fit in a pocket for fast access. I currently carry 2 surefires (g2z, 6px) but the battery cost and price point are not reasonable for this consideration.
I have considered the following:
NEBO Blueline, small, AA, 130 Lumen (not sure if that is otf) and 19.99 USD
Note: gave to my wife for a purse light and she loves it.
EagleTac P100A2 325 Lumen AA LED, AA, 236 lumen 39.90 USD
JETBeam BA20 270 Lumen CREE XP-G R5 LED Flashlight, AA, 270 lumen, 39.90 USD
JETBeam PA10 650 Lumen CREE XM-L T6 LED Flashlight, AA, 650 lumen (highly sceptical), 69.90 USD
Note: the 69.90 USD price point may be too high for some of my officers.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Bonus Trivia question: name the source of the below quote without google or any other search engine help for ultimate nerd pride.
"Run Fast, Shoot straight......... Die proud." or the allusion
"if you've gotta die, die proud. If not, shoot straight, and run fast." for the gold.
