Received the aforementioned Jetbeam BC10 - really a nice light, I think I get a second one for the collection.

Today, I got a Surefire G2 incan in yellow for 25 Euro. At that price, I have no bad feelings storing it in my car together with the Surefire traffic wand. Maybe I will add stickers of reflective tape to it so I could find it easier should it get lost in the dark.

No plans on upgrading the incan dropin - I assume that EMT and police arrive long before the one hour runtime is over.

I purchased and received a Surefire UB3T Invictus and FM24 beam diffuser. Thank you Surefire Price Reduction of 2012! I never thought I'd get to own one of these.

Got my second Surefire D3 on ebay yesterday as a late birthday present for myself.
A lot of accessories are included and I got it for significantly less than I was willing to spend :thumbsup:

Ah, you were the lucky one! Okay, I'll admit I did not go very far with my bids since I already have enough 9P hosts and I am looking for the old style tail caps with the loose innard but knurled rubber buttons. For some reason it seems that need a lighter pressure to activate.

Belated happy wishes.

Thank you!
It's also my first P91 btw, I hope it doesn't :poof: on me while I'm admiring it before putting it away in a safe place.

Do you mean the knurled rubber tailcaps activate easier compared to the newer Z41s?

I tried measuring the force needed to activate the lights used the different Z41s using a kitchen scale. Although the numbers were similar, I still have the feeling that the old ones activate more easily. I currently have an old used and abuse SF 6P OG in my EDC setup. Since the lock-out function is missing, I always have to take it out of my coat pocket while driving to work - so I have plenty of time to play with it....

Just got the *new* Jetbeam jet-III M (XM-L). Never had the XP-G version... so I like this one quite a bit. Much more useable clip than the RRT-21 has.

Surefire G2X Tactical in tan. Because I like the color and the G2X is the only one of the new line of Surefire lights where the value for money (for me) is okay. Without lego-capabilities I see no need for getting a 6PX.
