Hi, I am new at the forum and I am really learning a lot... I just bought my first real flashlight, a surefire lx2, and I am really happy of what a little flashlight can do, specially the throw capacity of it, it's amazing... Well, I don't have any other real flashlight to compare with, and I would like to hear from you, recommendations for quality throwers.. Price is not a problem and I would like to keep it not too big... Thanks in advance for your help...
Looking for quality throwers...

Check out the Jetbeam RRT-1 or the Dereelight DBS.
The DBS has a long standing tradition of quality and top of the line throwing capabilities.
The RRT-1 is a new light, but Jetbeam themselves are known for their quality also.
I was really impressed with the RRT-1 beamshots. However, you will notice it's too close to the DBS to really matter. Thread found here. You will notice the DBS looks warmer but that is because it's using a Q2 LED. A Q5 would give you a brighter light which would even out an almost unnoticeable difference.
However, search for "throwers" and you will find a TON of beamshots out there. This one has a lot of throwers.

Jetbeam M1x, Jetbeam RRT-1 and Tiablo A10 are my recommendation. :welcome:
Thanks for your help... I am leaning to jetbeams m1x and rrt-1 ... What do you think about the difference between sizes..?? In other words, How about the power - size comparison..?? Is it worth to have the m1x ( bigger ) ? Or the rrt-1 will do almost the same..?? Sorry, If I didn't explain myself good enough...:thinking:

Tiablo A9 with aspheric lens > Tiablo A10 > EagleTac M2XC4 3*R2 > Thrunite catapult SMO > M1X

Aspheric Tiablo A9 counts as a modded light, not factory standard. So we're considering modded lights now are we? If thats the case a 6D maglite driven at 24v with a SSC P7 or MC-E drop in and an aspheric lens would decimate the Aspheric A9... over 100K lux throw!

Only problem is that he mentions that he does not want it too big, and the 6D Mag would be a little big.:thinking:

I'll see your RRT-2, and raise you an M1X! This thing was RIDICULOUS at throwing when I owned it, not as big as it looks in pictures as well.
