I have a Tristar Phazer
Two 3D Tristars
Two 4D Tristars
Two Pentaluxes
One Quad
Two Barbolight 3X3 Dive lights
So, I think I am qualified to comment /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
It really depends on what you want in a flashlight, and what you are willing to spend. If you want one that is waterproof, and can afford it,you must get the Barbolights, they are phenomenal dive lights. If you want the greatest output, and run time, I highly recomend the 4D Tristars (if you can get one).
The Phazer is a nice relatively compact light with a decent output, but I don't care for the tail switch.
If you want the best multi 3W light, and can spend $150 get the Quad, it has the most incredible beam in the most compact form of all my lights, and is my favorite.
