    suggestions for medium sized (4+AA) sized torch?

    How about the Wolf Eyes AK6? It runs on 6 x AA batteries. 300lumens（5.5hrs）->100lumens（12.5hrs）->18lumens（66hrs）->650lumens（2.5hrs）-> strobe->SOS (per Wolf Eyes website). HA III anodized and waterproof to IPX-8 standard. Bezel diameter 45.7mm, body diameter 39mm, overall length 192mm. I'm...

    What is this led's color bin? Is it a cooler or warmer tint? Does it have momentary-on capability?

    Still haven't received my Surefire 6P LED yet, but I have another question. If I use a Malkoff M60 (or M60L) drop-in in the 6PL, is there a way to end up with a 2-mode light (high & low) just by swapping out tailcaps? Or do I have to look for a drop-in that is specifically designed to have a...

    Thanks, guys, for all your input. I've decided to go with a Surefire 6P LED. It's on order, but I haven't received it yet. That being said, I'm probably also going to try to get a Dereelight CL1H v3.0 2SM --- maybe for this Christmas. We'll have to see how things go (my wife thinks I have lost...

    Just how conservative are Surefire's lumens ratings? Since the 6P LED is rated at 80 lumens, does that mean it's more like 100 lumens when compared to most other manufacturers ratings?

    Thanks maxa beam, but 289 USD is a bit out of my budget. However, you realize you are responsible for creating some SERIOUS flashlight lust.

    Thanks again everyone for your input. I really appreciate all of your helpful replies :twothumbs. I'm down to deciding between 4 lights (Surefire 6p LED, Wolf Eyes 6AX HO Q5, Lumapower M1-T and the Dereelight CL1H v3.0 2SM). This is gonna be tough. By the way, does anyone know the lumens...

    Now I've got to ask a question that only a rookie could come up with. If you were to take a stock Surefire 6P LED (at 80 lumens) and compare it with a Surefire 6P with a BOG Cree Premium Plus drop-in (at 170 lumens) would the difference be that noticeable? How about between a stock 6P LED and...

    Is there any benefit/advantage in going with a Surefire 6p versus a G2 if I was interested in utilizing a Malkoff drop-in or BOG drop-in?

    OK, so if I get a Surefire G2 or 6P, depending on the led drop-in, I could end up with a single or multi-level light that runs on rechargeables as well as CR123s? It looks like the description for the drop-in would state how many levels it is designed for. How would I know if it can run on...

    Oops, my bad, I answered my own question re: 6p dropins under $60 (thanks xcel730, found the Bugoutgear dropins). What rechargeable batteries can the 6p run on?

    Thanks everyone for your suggestions. The Fenix L2T v2.0 sounds great as does the Olight T20 Tactical. I also like the idea of a 6P with a dropin, but is there a decent, 150+ lumen dropin for less than $60? Also, does anyone have any thoughts re: the Lumapower M1-T or the Wolf Eyes 6AX HO Q2?

    Thank you, Jarl. I didn't realize the L2T had a forward clicky.

    Hello everyone! I have to start off by saying you guys are awesome :thumbsup:. I've just joined CPF & I'm in need of some advice. I'm looking for an LED EDC (will be using a holster) which will be for general use & to investigate the occasional "bump in the night" at home (75 foot maximum...
