What was the last LED light you purchased and why?

[WarriorOfLight]

My last light was a HDS Rotary with blue LED:

And the reason for blue? Difficuilt question, I like the color blue, an the Red, Amber and Green HDS were Always wanting a friend with blue light

a zebralight sc600w mkiv hi,

to avoid spending 400.00 on an hds systems light

 

[Bogie]

Half LED count 😁 picked up a YG Surefire A2 to complete my 4 flats set I now have every secondary color

 

[BigBluefish]

Been away from lights for awhile now...lost in guns & watches.
I think my last light was either a minty A2-YG (my second; sold my first and almost instantly regretted it) or the RA 85Tr that I'd been lusting after for years.

Commissioned this paracord lanyard from a very pleasant chap. He was recommended in another forum and is UK-based. I'm really pleased with it and am now wondering about styles and designs for my other torches. It's a rainy day here in Surrey, so perfect for goofing off with various torch configurations

Sofirn SP70 because 2 X 26650 is a lot better than 1 X 21700. Because I don't have $509 to spend on an Imalent R90TS. lovecpf

A Lumintop GTvn Mini modded by Vinh Nguyen with W2.1. Starts out with 1300 lumen, 300Kcd. At 7.0 oz with batt., 5.2" long & 2" head, it will pair with my MT07vn, also W2.1 (7700 lumen & 115Kcd).
I live on the side of a forested mountain so ultra throwers are thwarted by dense trees and my far mountain views are too far for today's flashlights. There's always hope!
The MT07vn is only 9.3oz with batt., 4.4" & 1.7" head, which both lights fit comfortably in cargo pant or jacket pocket. These will more than light up my natural surroundings when hiking my trails, which contain plenty of nature since my land also abuts the National Forest.
The GTvn Mini will finally replace my Eagletac S200C2vn (XPG2), the first light purchased from Vinh years ago!

Hello search_and_rescue, Imalent R90TS was the first light to outperform the X65, and it took two and a half years to do so, and it outperforms the X65 in power, but not in throw. You should compare these two lights, side by side, if you can.

Hello MAD777, I got my MT07vn W2, 7700 lumen, 115Kcd, 678 meters throw, two days ago. The combination of 8,000 lumens and 678 meters throw in a single 26650 light with 44mm head diameter makes me very happy. Plenty of both throw and power for its size class is what makes this a great light. Notably more throw than others in its size-power class.

X65. Still rocks!

Since the last time someone posted in this topic thread, I have slowed down a wee tad bit. I purchased:

July 4th: Noctigon KR1 vn, because it has 5000 lumens and 663 meters throw from single 18650.

July 6th: Emisar D18 vn, because it has 15,000 lumens and 748 meters throw from 3 x 18650.

July 16th: two more Astrolux EC05, because they have what appears to be more than 6,700 lumens and what appears to be more than 303 meters throw, to me, anyway.

July 17th: Astrolux MF05. because it has approximately 6,000 lumens and 3,162 meters throw.

I bought a Red Filter cap for my L2D from a friend yesterday. The price was very good so I couldn't resist.

a Thunite 2A V3, mainly because I realised I didn`t have a 2xAA LED light (I have plenty 2xAA incans), so I had to balance it out.

 

[mhpreston]

Oops - Olight impulse. All these colours...

Limited Edition Olight Seeker 2 Pro in Mint Green, and a Olight Warrior X Pro.

I have not received either yet.

I recently purchased another Olight Seerer 2 Pro in black, which I have, and it's a nice light. The small form factor is appreciated, but the 5000 mAh 21700 battery gives it good performance, too.

Surefire 6p-bk new off of ebay, since I wanted another. Dropped a Malkoff M61W in it.

 

[Havok]

A second 2xAA mini Maglite because it came with the accessory kit (lens filters/ holder). Also, so I wont feel bad if one gets used and abused while the other stays nice, and pristine.

 

[Toulouse42]

A Coast G19 and Ledlenser P2 so my grandson doesn't play with my more powerful lights (he's only two). Plus an Olight M1T Raider for me as I'm moving away from multi cell lights, and an Olight i5T, and ............
