:popcorn: Can't wait to see what you call best. You have my attention! I thought my x2vn was close to perfect.

I hope that you have made the path trough the shelf of the Zebralights. This is EDC material for sure! :)

Oh don't get me wrong, I like ZL size and output, and I EDC an h52 with a pocket clip. I like all the modes too. But the clip sucks, and the long clicks and double clicks and 6x clicks to get through the modes gets old, especially with that highly recessed switch and cold, wet or gloved hands, or when youre nervous (not exactly tactical) And accidentally hitting turbo or strobe when you REALLY wanted moonlight sucks. Which is why I also EDC a d25c2vn in my watch pocket. It's a pretty decent setup, having a mini flooder and micro thrower on you at the same time.

That being said, if Vinh is able to come up with a four or five mode, moonlight having, tail cap switched (I love McClickys) semi-floody 18650 lumen monster that's appreciably smaller than his SL2vn and with a super well attached deep carry pocket clip then I might change my EDC routine.

SL2vn is real close to perfect, just a bit big for me to EDC unless it's in the back pocket or a holster.

I still think the light I am about to release is better rounded :)

I thought it was going to be the NC mh20 as well.........next time then :laughing:

Does look a versatile light with the usb charge option and looks like a more user friendly power button:)
