Best light for you under $100?

[oldpal]

I never have started a thread like this before, but I just ordered a new light and am curious what your responses will be. If there are other similar threads I'm sorry. For the life of me I can't figure out the quirky search. :confused:

I'm interested to see how my new light fares.

Eagletac P100C2. I can't believe it is $40!

Edit: Best is very subjective ie. some value throw, some value flood, some value wide voltage range, reliability, brightness, tint, runtime etc. For what I like in a light the P100C2 is the "best" under $100. I'd expect a Surefire 6P will be on top of many peoples list (although I doubt many on CPF would use one in its standard form)

Re: Best light under $100?

uh.... best light of what sort? 1xAA EDC light, 2XAA everyday use light, 2xCR123/1x18650 tactical light?

this could skew towards tactical lights, but they really arent "better" than the 2xAA type, they are for a different use.

Any type, just what do you think is the best.

Depends on your definition of "best"

Describe what you want.

As all-round light I would recommend the RA Clicky EDC-E.

That's right.
If you get 100 responses, you will get 100 "bests" !

OK, I ordered a Ra EDC Exec. :whistle: Several others considered it the "best under $100". I don't believe that I wasted my money.

Thanks for all of your responses.
