Zebralight SC62 and SC62w

If I ever get money to buy a new EDC I think it might be a zebralight, the interface is great, the size is great and the quality is great. I love specs on the SC62w, if only they had some color options ;)
 
I just picked up a SC62w, my first Zebralight, from my local flashlight store. I am blown away. I like the UI quite a bit, while the fit and finish of the light is fantastic. This will most likely replace my S20-L2 as my primary carry light. I can see a SC52 in my future. :)

I got mine yesterday. I have a sc600 II and a sc52. The 52 is very bright but limited in runtime-I got it first, great light and I like it.....the 600 is a powerhouse, I wish it had a tighter beam, and sometimes I was limited on carrying it in my pocket because of the size and weight, but I like it alot...........but the 62 can fix all those problems (except that thrower issue ( a zl thrower does not exist )). A light with a 3200 mah 18650 battery the size of the sc62 is like having a small car with a large, full tank of gas. So you might not use a sc52 very much if you have a sc62.

There is such a thing as a local flashlight store? What is it called? the only brick and mortor place I have found that actually has any decent lights is REI.

Drive south to San Jose to visit Illumn (formerly Illumination Supply). You're in Marin County... 2 hour drive at most as long as you avoid rush hour. :twothumbs

I'm sorry, bad choice of words for me, I ordered it online. I don't know of any local stores where I am. Anyone else?
Also, if there was a retail store most lights would cost 25-50% more.

If you want to see quality flashlights in person you can look at any place that deals in high quality outdoor sporting goods or places where professionals who might need decent quality lights would go, like firemen, police, military, search & rescue or marine goods.
 
I picked up a couple of Ti deep carry clips and fitted them to my SC62w and SC52w. Quick and dirty pictures.
 
I purchased them off the marketplace. Wasn't sure if they would fit, had to drill the holes out a bit for it to work. They look like knife clips I've seen offered for sale various places. I'm sure some of the knife experts here can identify them.
 
That's a nice setup.

Just ordered my '62w. :thumbsup:

I've been looking forward to this one for a while. I had two SC600w's, but sold them 'cause I wanted to buy other things. They were my only single 18650 lights. This will fill that void and then some. Merry Christmas to me! :grin2:

With the SC62w you won't miss the SC600w. Trust me. I stopped using the SC600w ever since.
 
You won't be disappointed with the SC62w, I prefer the compact size over the 600. I have three 600's that are rarely used.
 
Right on! I knew I made the right choice. I went back and forth a lot as to whether or not I should get it. I thought it might be a bit redundant since I have a '52w, but it doesn't have the beacon/strobe 3-click option. And like I said, not having a single-18650 light makes me feel slightly incomplete, lol. The runtimes make a big difference, depending on what you're doing. My '52w is great for work because it's smaller and I don't need much runtime most days. The '62w will be better for camping and other nightly activities. Plus, I bet it'll do nicely if I decide to put it in place of one of my handlebar lights. The SC600w's work fine in those two fish lockblocks if you strap them towards the middle (perhaps a bit closer to the head). I don't think they wobbled very much, if I remember correctly. The SC62w should be even better with a smaller head and less mass in general. And the fact that it's the same length as an HDS is mucho fantastico.

According to USPS, it should be here tomorrow. It's too bad it didn't make it in time for my fire ride tonight, though. I just finished a stupid little video from my last fire ride, a couple weeks ago...

Being able to harness the power of light is just awesome!
