CAUTION - RANT ZONE!
Am I the only one who doesn't care for tail-cap clickies? I really like the look of so-called "tactical" style lights, I like 'em in black, and I even like the strike bezels . . . . but I would much prefer a good side clickie. I'm not a cop or ninja, and have no intention of trying to be a Navy SEAL wannabee. For normal use I find a side button switch much more convenient. I suppose I'll get blasted and branded a heretic, but I sure wish more of the makers of popular quality lights offered models with this option. To me it's much more user friendly to have a clickie on the side that lies right under your thumb than having to change your hand position and push on the tail-cap, some of them virtually neccesitating two hands. Some of the makers have a ridiculous number of variations of their flashlights, it's almost dizzying :shakehead trying to choose which one to buy. You'd think with all the models and versions most manufacturers offer, there would be some models with a side switch.
