I have the Pelican M7, which is the rechargeable version of the Magnum 2aa (I also have the Magnum 2aa). I also have a 4c cell M10, which is the non rechargeable version of the M11. None of these lights are very impressive, particularly against the comparable offerings of Streamlight and Surefire.
In terms of size, the M9 rechargeable is a 3c sized light, and appears to be similar in size (perhaps a little larger) to the SL Stinger. I don't have one, but all of the M series of lights seem to share the Pelican Xenon Laser Spot, which is a very fine, sharp beam with dim spill light. Prefocused, it does not allow for adjustment.
The new M6 looks to be another type of light more in line with Surefire's style. You can find more info on this light at
pelican.com .
Pelican does make sturdy, reliable lights, and some others do enjoy the slim pencil thin beams those lights produce. As with most everything else, it is a matter of personal preference. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
