Uh, Er.....
It's not like that dudes! I don't WANT any of that!
I just want to get a cheap light because I am not "made of money".
I looked pretty hard at RC-N3. C3 w/extension and others. All have one nit or another. Maybe not deal breakers but stuff like switches.
I want user recommendations.
I don't recommend a light that i do not own and if i do, i make it clear that i have not had the opportunity to test the light. The Ultrafire C3 was my first foray into LEDs and to this day i do not regret it and it's still one of my EDC lights.
1 x AA, bright. 1 x 14500, way bright. Comments i received in the flashlight wasteland where i live (Singapore) range from "why do you carry a flashlight?" to "DAMN! that's bright! How come its so bright but so small?" to " Where can i get that?"
With the 2 x AA tube, output is less but runtime is increased it gives flexibility in use at a very decent price. Non flashaholics do not want to spend much initially, that was how i viewed it, but now, $76 for a light? Wow, THAT's cheap!
I strongly endorse the Ultrafire C3 as a starter light, since its a single mode, whether its a forward or reverse clicky is not really relevant, especially with a non flashaholic, telling them "tactical on" is gonna lead to "huh?", get them the C3, let them play with it for a while THEN open the door to the world of flashlights and lead them in
