Flashlight Enthusiast
I started my serious appreciation for flashlights with the Surefire Z2 Combat and E2 that I bought quite a number of years ago. I was content with that until I discovered this forum last January (in a quest for a bulb replacement for my MiniMag.) Well, of course, the latest LED lights took me for a huge ride on a wave of wonderful lights, JetBeams, Malkoff modules for the Z2, 6P clones, Solarforces, Nitecore D10, Quarks, AKOray K-106, Liteflux LF3XT and LF2XT, L-Mini IIs, MTE P7, Deerelight MC-E, Ultrafire C3, TLS heads, etc.
After all that, the other night I removed the TLS heads from my E1es and dropped in LumenFactory EO and HO lamps and an RCR123 in each and totally rediscovered the wonderful world of an E1e with EO incan lamp. One level, not incredibly bright, but what a wonderful light, beautiful tint, and plenty of useful light for sure.
So after running the quest for newest, brightest, multi-level, multi-mode, etc. I find it humorous to be returning to using and enjoying the simple E1e with a LumensFactory incan lamp.
Just wanted to share this "re-discovery". The little E1e incan is a delight with an EO or HO lamp and an RCR123!
I still love and use all the great LED lights I've got, but my little E1es are plugging along happily right along with the latest greatest LED blasters.
