Can someone please explain to me why some people like twisties? Honestly, I don't understand the advantages at all. It seems like clickies are easier / faster to operate, and can be used one-handedly (is that a word?) better then a twisty.
The only resonable arguments for a twisty I can gather just from reading around here is that they take up a bit less space and they tend to hold up a bit better over the years (mechanically).
But with lifetime warranties on a lot of the high quality lights, if a clicky goes bad, you can get it replaced for free. So the 2nd point is kinda moot (a little bit). And if you want it smaller, just go to a CR2 or a RCR2 battery to compensate for the slightly longer clicky... so the first point is kinda moot too.
Somebody out there please show me the light (pun intended) and twist (pun intended) my views to the "twisty" side of thinking, or else I'm affraid my opinions have "clicked" (pun intended) into place for the clicky camp.
