Need HELP finding Tactical Switch LED Light

[dbhn]

I need a tactical (w/ momentary on) switch LED light to fit in my mag/light holster for training.

Holster fits Surefire G2, 6P, etc. and Streamlight Scorpion. Handle and end cap need to be 1" diameter max.

My Brinkman Maxfires do not quite fit.

I was looking to get something a bit less expensive than the Surefire G2L (and brighter then the Scorpion) to fit this need.

Are there any options out there that fit this bill? 2x123A is the ideal format. Any dealextreme lights have momentary?

Thanks.

What about the Fenix L2T v2.0? Push for momentary, push more for clickie to stay on.

I just saw these and am very interested. But, not for this purpose. The light I need needs to have a head on it to keep from falling through the holster. The L2T's straight body would slide right through.

Do you want a momentary/twist or momentary/clicky?

Either one will work. Have never owned the mom/twist type but since Surefires are like that I am sure they are more than adequate.

I am surprised by the lack of help... Are there just no options cheaper than the $65 G2L???

Ive had one of these for over a year with no problems at all. Tactical switch. Its only a 3 watt luxeon but its bright enough. You can get the K2 version from DX but its not as bright as the luxeon. I recently modded mine with a CREE DROP IN. It was fairly easy to do, and its alot brighter and has ALOT longer runtime.

Inova XO or XO3?

I would suggest a Brinkman Maxfire but you said it didn't fit? Too fat?
Brinkman makes a 1watt and 3watt led light in roughly the same form factor as the maxfire, but I think they're both 3aaa lights.

The Inova's would not hold in the holster and yes, the Maxfires (which I love) are just a hair too fat.

What about the new Lumapower M1-R? It has one of the nicest beams I have ever seen. All round useful beam with great throw and great spill. You can spot things at a distance or light up a room. Comes with both a reverse clicky and a tactical switch. It is well built and has the heavy strike bezel for self defense. I would highly recommend this light. It may be slightly above what you were looking to spend, but in my opinion, it is well worth it.
