First off I want to thank thoughs who responded to my request for information regarding a Surefire C2 Host! Anyways I knew I'd be in trouble when I started the thread cause I purchase one from Bugsy through his Market Place ad which is bored out for a 18650.
After re-reading a few threads (ones that came up using the search function), the ones that I was interested seem to be older threads. SO, I'm asking for y'alls help once again in regards to recommending a drop in that would work for my application or beam profile I'm most interested in!
I presently have tabs open to Dereelight, lighthound (Nailbender drop-ins) and malkoff web sites.
The following is what I'm hoping to acheive with this purchase;
* I'd like a tight beam profile. The Hot Spot is more important then spill.
* Single output is fine, since this light is used primarily on it's max output. I use my HDS Rotary if I need a lower output or in a structure e.g. large room.
* Bright White Tint (not sure if I can stay away from green, but would be absolutely great if possible)! For some reason I find the white tint (to my eyes) is easier to see and throws further then a warm tint. Well, aside from my DEFT-edc LR that is! ... LOL
* I'll utilize 18650's in this light! Btw, I'm presently using 2900 mAh 18650 ***Fire protected rechargables, but would like to upgrade to AW protected 18650's, but I notice there are several different AW protected 18650's (2200, 2600, 2900, and 3100 mAh). Which in your opinion would be the one I should invest in?
Thanks for the help!
