Current light is a Sunwayman T20CS, works but newer lights have better life higher output "insert additional excuses to buy another light here____".
Lights' use will be for walking deep trails, and woods "at night, yes it's kinda dangerous but it's fun to get *lost*:thumbsup:" I don't typically walk around at full brightness so I'll be wanting around 200-300lm mode but want/need the 800lumen+ output for a "what the hell was that" moments or if I want to spot somthing.
I don't want a big light which obviously would be best for this type of use, I have a few big lights "inova, fenix" but they just sit around half the time cause they weigh a ton. I'd rather something somewhat pocketable and offhand carry with pistol if needbe "like I currently do with the sunwayman" I'll stick that on a rifle or shotgun when I replace it with one of these .
narrowed my search down from 11 to these 2: the Klarus ST11 and the Nightcore P16. both seem built equally well, they both have same features like the memory function that with last used brightness mode on next turn-on, and about the same brightness outputs per mode. I just can't decide on which to get "although I can't find any worthwhile if any reviews on the p16" both are the same price pretty much give or take a $1 or 2
anyone have either or both of these lights , with a thumbs up to one or the other?
I've been youtube and forum reading my *** off and still back not making a decision ?
if it matters batteries used are duracel CR123A I have about 63 left of those and 3pair eagletac rechargable 18650.
