I bought myself a Fenix TK11. WOW, what a thrower with the smooth reflector!
It's almost TOO good a thrower though...maybe it'll end up a weapon light on my M4!
I'm waiting on a TK10 with a textured reflector...maybe next week!
As to a gift, I just ordered two Romisen RCT5 4x Crees today from Battery Junction. These are my wife's "gift" to me. I HOPE I'm not disappointed...
I know I am DONE with incan's! I bought an Ultrafire WF500 a couple years ago, and blew two bulbs (unless it's something else this last time) in about 2 months. Last week, I blew the bulb in a TL3 I have mounted on my patrol rifle while on the range. This week, I was at one of my local stores that carry such things, and bought a second TL3, and got it home and put batteries in it and IT BLEW THE BULB!
I have TERRIBLE luck!
I hope the Romisen doesn't let me down-I wanted great output, tailcap switch, and CR123 use (I have a good source on them for next to nothing:twothumbs ). I looked at the Ultrafires (even the 18650s since I have some left from the Ultrafire experience) and the Solarforce T700, and THAT was aTOUGH call! :mecry:
I finally went with the Romisens because I could get TWO for the price of one T700 (well almost).
