Surefire Titan Replacement?

[Phredd]

I'm sure I'm the last to know that Surefire discontinued the Titan T1A. Can anyone recommend a replacement flashlight?

- just as small
- continuously variable output

The Titan is discontinued but you can still pick one up for under $100 at Amazon.

LAPOLICEGEAR.COM appears to still have the Titan in stock.

You'll get much more light out of a Niteye EYE10, Sunwayman, or Jetbeam RRT-01, all 250 lm compared to 90 from the Titan, or 500 with IMR Rechargables.

And for Surefire's original MSRP, you can get the same light made out of titanium.

I was very happy to find the Titan at lower prices. I modded one for a coworker some years back, but did not want to step up to the counter for one at MSRP pricing. But, now I hoarded a few. I like lights that I can mod, service and repair myself. The Titan with a XML transplant is a jewel, imo.
By the way, good to see you around, I remember your cool Titan tail standing mod. :)

Thanks for the pointers. I did find them for sale. About half what I paid a few years ago. I'm wondering if I should get another or try something else. Hard to tell if I'd like the Niteye 10, and the Jetbeam looks similar. I'm afraid the Titans will sell out and I know I like it.

Thanks, same here. I modified both the original Titan and the T1A. What's a light that can't tail stand? I think I might just get another Titan. I may need to replace the LED if it's got an angry - or sad - tint. I like mine mellow yellow.

They were down to $89.00 a few weeks ago at Botach,I got 2.
Great little light,different tints on my 2 but both better than what I read about. They are the latest 90lm version but seem to measure brighter from what I have read.

They're $99 at Botach, but $89 on eBay sold by Botach. Go figure. I just ordered another one. If I don't like the tint, may someone here will fix it.
