Jason's Prometheus Beta-QR in copper can be pre-ordered on his website for April delivery for $75. I have it in a two-mode EN, but the copper has three brightness settings. Very nice little light.
The U2 Ultra remains my favorite light that I use around the house. I don't know, it just suits me. Sure, I'd like more out the front, but I use what is there and with no complaints.
I have thought the same thing. My Streamlight Siege area lights are powered by D size batteries or AA with spacers, and I would definitely use lithium primaries if they were manufactured.
Thanks for that information. If I order the Alpha RM, I'll order the flat-top AW 18650 at the same time. This would be my first experience with an 18650 cell, so I'm trying to do things right.
Neutralwhite, I see that illumination supply offers the HDS-219B-170-LE in two back ordered versions. If you don't mind me asking, which version did you order? I'm very interested in this 219B HDS. Thanks.
Barefootone, I ordered the Nano-Oil from Jason when I purchased the little Beta-QR. I like the way the lubricant is packaged; it allows for precise and minimal distribution of the product onto the thread surface. Excellent product. Thanks again.
