I am fed up with junk products I have been getting ... All the incarnations of Chinese made lites. Yet another failure today. Fenix. Okay, I EDCed it for a year and used every day. Never abused it, only put the best NiMH I could find. The driver itself failed and it does erratic things in some kind of a morse code configuration. Just p1sses me off. Cannot imagine what would have happened if I actually needed it in a 'situation'.
These Chinese made lites aren't all that cheap, go for between 60-100 and a poor value at that. I am certainly not going to rely on it ever again.

Ebay and Surefire, here I come.
Holy sh1t, cannot believe the array of choices. Do they need that many? I cannot figure out what the difference between models is.
Thus far I am inclined to get SF 9P. Two of them actually, and convert both with Malkoff modules, one into M30/ and AA configuration and the other into M60 and 2x18650 configuration.
I just need to find a recessed tail. I am sure there is a thread on it somewhere. Something that won't turn on in my pocket (I EDC tailcap down)
