newbie surefire question

[cdixon]

i plan on buying my first non-maglite flashlight /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif. i have pretty much decided on a surefire. now i have to pick one out. it will be my edc, so a pocketclip is necessary. i was looking at the e2e, l1, c2, and m2. which of these would be best for edc? pics would also be appreciated. thanks to all for helping.

Oh gosh, do a search on this forum and you'll find plenty of Surefire information along with pictures. In my opinion the E2E is a very good choice for a first Surefire. It will blow away the Mag in nearly all regards and then if you catch the fever you'll want something even brighter for a subsequent purchase.

I have many surefire lights and I use them all but that E2E is always in my pocket. Like they say if you can only have one surefire then make it an E2E. IMHO
Oh by the way welcome to CPF.

C2 is my EDC....grip rings are useful and the pocket clip is longer /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif i would highly recommend it.

I recommend the E2e as the best Surefire EDC you can get. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif

The A2 is great too but is about as long as the M2.

I have some pictures of various Surefires on my website.

A lot of members recommed the e2e. This would be a wise first choice, so you can get a taste of what a 2 cell Surefire can do. E2e, looks good, pocket clip, compact, plenty of light from a small package and affordable compared to your other choices. You should search the forum for E2e reviews. It has gotten lots of good reviews. I think you will be pleased. Good luck with your first
non mag-lite flashlight purchase.

e2e or e2o is my preference. The difference is that the e2o has a longer clip and ships with 25lu bulb.

I'd have to recommend Sean's Flashlight website as well - just being able to see the pictures, descriptions, etc, was a big help in the decision making process. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif
