\"Superlights\" - Min. Qualifications
All opinions are valid. What minimum qualifications do you consider necessary for a light to be regarded as one of the best, or a "Superlight"? I'll offer variable levels, reliability, and brightness for opening suggestions but a light doesn't, necessarily have to be bright to be great.
Early on, Arc's lineup could have been regarded as Superlights, especially the LS. Nothing else like the AA, AAA, or LS existed - now they've been eclipsed. If the HDS is as tough as the Arc LS, I'd say it would qualify as one of the best.
The SF E2e may still qualify because it's one of the brightest for its size. Would the E1L qualify? Perhaps not due to only one brightness level. Although it has super construction, warranty, and throw for its size. The A2 may still be a superlight...it would be super if I had one!
Flamethrowers costing $300 + might qualify due to their sheer amount of lumens and cost.
I'm not real familiar with all the excellent "home brews" from Mr. Bulk, McLux, Electrolumens, and others I can't remember right now...sorry, there are so many great, limited production, lights.
What do you consider to be the least expensive superlights?
