Thanks for the feedback, fellows (non-gender useage implied), your descriptions follow what I found with the River Rock.
I went crackers this month because of my third CPF anniversery. Buying lights was the appropriate action to take, considering the considerable importance of the CPF.
Let's see...A B C - 1 2 3. C would be the "right" (#3) cell size and I should get to buy three lights to correspond with my third time passing go @ CPF. Right??? Since I already have three, 3C cell lights, I had to compromise and only buy three, 2C lights this month.
Lowes Task Force 3W 2C is the brightest with the most throw and probably most overall light. It consumes only 10% more current than the Victorinox 2C, that arrived at my doorstep, but doubles the brightness.
The V2C has the best beam, and better machining. For me, this light has, excellent, near perfect feel, especially the grip - it won't slip.
The RR 2C also has a nice feel and appearance but not quite up to the Victorinox, which is made by Emissive Energy. The RR's small spot will have limited usefulness for me, too, but it's an interesting light and I'm not done playing with it. Perhaps a proper use for the RR will avail itself - even if I must invent one!
Seems like next year will be a 4 D cell excuse. Since I have three, four D cell lights...I'll only have to buy ONE more. I'll hope for a 4D, 10 - 20 watt HID price breakthrough.
