I'm looking to build a nice practical 2 cell Mag in a C size body, and I want a nice throws beam pattern. I already have a 2D Mag 1909 for pure practical power, so this one is geared for smaller size, fewer batteries, and a nice throwy beam. Unfortunately I recently had to sacrifice my M6 w/ LF HO-M6R, so this is to replace that light.
Which would be the better choice for this - the Mag ROP, or a Mag74 using a WA 1274 bulb and 2x26650 IMRs.
I'm leaning towards the Mag74 right now due to being able to use the big IMRs (runtime), as well as the low risk of instaflash. Plus, I already have a bi-pin holder to use for the bulb. And, the bulbs are cheap.....
Will the ROP have that much more output? Which would have a nicer (and throwier) beam?
Thanks in advance for your input!
