help please: looking for brighter version of EagleTac T10C2

[brighterisbetter]

Greetings all, CPF veteran here who doesn't spend a whole lot of time researching lights in the < $100 range. I spend most of my days perusing the Custom B/S/T section but I'm now on the hunt for a replacement for my brother's EagleTac T10C2 light he lost at work. Can anyone please recommend a substitute with the following specs:

- 2xCR123 power supply
- twist head for high/low
- ^ two modes only (high/low) - no strobe or SOS
- clip as far to one end of the light as possible for easy pocket carry
- tailcap clicky of course - reverse or forward doesn't matter
- 500+ OTF lumens would be nice but I'd settle for 500 emitter lumens
- BUDGET: no more than $100 (I'd consider buying used too), ideally around $75

Basically, he would like a much brighter version of his beloved T10C2 and also have the clip closer to the tailcap if possible. He loves the beam profile of the T10C2; I even offered to gift him my SF LX2 but he thought it was too throwy. Want's to stick with 2xCR123 primaries as he and I each have oodles of them, so hold off on the RCR suggestions please.

So far I know of the Jetbeam Jet-III-M but he doesn't like the tailcap. And I suggested the Olight M21 and M30 but they're out of anticipated budget.

Thanks CPF.

You are best moving this to the Led flashlight section,this page is full of all the budget stuff,your wanted item is not budget priced.

I don't think you're going to find a 500 lumen light with a twist head for under $100. The cheapest thing I can think of is a triple XP-G P60 drop-in, or an O-light M21, but the Olight has more modes than you need.
