I know my recommendation of Fenix P2D has already been counted. Except for not quite low enough low it is still a GREAT light!

I do not remember if I said anything about EagleTac P10C2. Not a LOT bigger than it needs to be. Runs fine on a 17670.

Nor do I remember if Zebralight H30 has been told about. Not much bigger than a 123. Pretty low low. Bright high. GOOD medium for reading.

this is not a vote: fenix e01 over arc aaa?
I'll cast another vote for the Maglite Solitaire, without it, you'll never appreciate the brightness of flashaholic-worthy light

Surefire 6P w/ drop-ins
Surefire LX2 - It's not the brightest but I still love the two-stage switch
Surefire E1B Backup and JetBeam RRT-0 - I carry one of these every day. I prefer the Back-up most of the time but there are times when the variable output of the RRT-0 and ability to tail-stand comes in handy sometimes.

I'll put in a vote for the Sunwayman V10R (the XM-L version specifically).

1 more for the Quark Mini


Dustin

Quark mini 123 or AA?

Everything else counted through here!

Oh, and NEWSFLASH!

The Surefire LX2 JUST knocked the Liteflux LF2XT out of the top ten!


This is particularly exciting to me as while a nice light, I got rid of my LF2XT months ago. The LX2 however will have to be pried from my cold dead fingers. :devil:

I've got to put in a few of extra votes if that's allowed:

Quark Mini AA
Jetbeam BA20/Klarus P2a (same incredible circuit)
Solarforce L2p
Solarforce L2t
Solarforce L2x

The solarforce hosts are awesome quality, and really seem to define how a torch should look.

Suspect I'm a little to naive to really be making nominations, but to me an iconic flashlight to own has always been the MagLite range, so my current nomination would go to the 6D cell variant, it's big, heavy and certainly not the greatest, but it's hugely iconic and for me that makes it a Must Have!

My 2nd nomination would be to the current 2D LED MagLite, for much the same reason, it still retains that iconic look and feel seen in a thousand films and TV shows, but with more modern ability.

Looking at the trees.
Well as an old timer, how about:
ARC LSH-P
ARC 4+
HDS EDC Ultimate 60GT
Gatlight V3
These in their day were the best and arguably the most advanced lights at the beginning of the LED revolution.
ARC started my interest in torches and by the time Lumencraft went quiet, I had moved on.
It's too easy now, and I miss those interesting times.

1./ Romisen RC-29
2./ Xeno E03
3./ Quark AA & AA²
4./ EagleTac T20

Have changed my mind. Here my revised must-have list:

1./ Romisen RC-29
2./ Quark AA (with 14500)
3./ iTP A3 EOS (Titanium, SS, or whatever color wtf cares) -- not the Olight i3!!
