Which of these would you choose and why; Fenix T1, WE Fox 1X, WE Guider.

Yes, time for another purchase....I have been looking at these lights all with the Q5 LED's. What are the pro's and con's of these lights? I understand that some have multiple brightness levels while some have adjustable beam shape. The main feature for me is that the light will work well with a 18650 cell.......thanks.

With this in mind doesn't that mean you have ruled out the Fenix already? I didn't think it had the battery tube diameter to fit a 18650, i could be wrong though.

I have only used one of the lights you mentioned, if the guider was a forward clicky ( @ Wolf Eyes) then i would like it a lot better. I think you should get the Fox so you can do some beam shots to satisfy my curiosity and perhaps assist me in my next purchase

Not sure on the Fenis power options.....if it wont take the 18650 then it's of the list.....

yep, then it's off the list, my T1's can't even accept my AW 17670's!

Have you considered the Dereelight CL1H?

Fenis

Fenix?

Now that I clicked the link in you sig(great beamshots), sorry for the useless post.

Well, the Fox is cheaper and focusable.

But the guider has a side clickie and is rechargeable with out having to remove the battery.

Humm, either one would work. The Fox seems to have a good regulation on a 18650(review) and I'm not sure about the Guider(should also be good). But the Guider has a side clickie and multimode(but also larger).

I would pick the Guider because it is multimode and rechargeable without having to take out the battery. But I would pick the Fox if price and simplicity is needed.

I like the multimode function but would also like the focusability on the light as well,.....I would like both.....but I like it to be nice and small as well......perhaps just buy a multilevel Q5 drop-in for my Sniper.......not sure.
