I have been asked to assist someone in finding a good flashlight for him, it should be an usefull allrounder, not an EDC light (he's none of us /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jpshakehead.gif ). Therefore I need some input from these who have experience with some of the UKE lighs. The modells in question are the UK4AA (ESx or ENx), UK300, SL4 and SL6. What I need to know is:
-How do they compare in output vs. size/weight,
-carryability, what do they "feel" like in your hand?
-useablitiy
-beam pattern/quality
-how is the 4AA compared to the UK300?
-switch reliability, how good does the switch work
As I have only handled the SL6 once before I feel that this light is too large and heavy for what he is looking for, in my opinion one of the other three might be the ideal light.
Please only discuss the lights mentioned above (I do know the E-series lights but they are no option)! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
Thanks for your input,
