Hi guys,
You know how it starts. Your looking for replacement batteries and you see a light. Hmm, lets look at this, lets look at that. Oh this is on sale. Click click click you have 20 tabs open. AA lights, 18650 lights, 16340, 14500..... now your in for it lol.
I have a Klarus xt11 xmL2. Have a retired xt10 that sits around. Had the older xt11 till it flew out of my maxpedition holster on a run. Carry the nitecore ea1 with a 14500 battery as a backup (clip removed). That thing is a beast! Turns heads when they see a little thing bright up the night.
I started looking for a vehicle light. Jetbeam BC40 reeled me in. Then I was redirected to the PA40 due to its ability to use the readily available AA batteries. Important for a backup light as the Klarus is my primary that gets a fresh battery each evening.
From the PA40 I was pointed to the EA4.
So, EA4 or PA40. Short and stout or long and trim? The onky thing about the PA40 that bothers me is that goinggear states in the description that a case isn't included. Big nono. I dont have room in my pockets for lights when im out and about.
ea4 downside: not a tail clicky.
Ea4 pro: beam.
