Has anyone actually had a chance to try out the Aurora AK-P7 5 Mode?
( http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.12809 )
On paper it seems to be a very impressive light. I'm curious if the light is punchy or has a nice beam spread.
Though I've been happy with my Cree U2 style light, I'm thinking the Aurora may complement it with a (hopefully) wide beam throw - the U2 tends to be a bit spotty.
I use the Cree for bike riding and it has been a real winner. I really like the single 18650 form factor; compact but packing a punch.
I've been away from CPF for a while and it looks like technology as taken yet another quantum leap in performance. What's next on the horizon to show-up the P7 ? When do we hit the limit of brightness/ heat dissipation/ battery life?
If the Aurora is as good as it sounds (and doesn't eat batteries with the high current draw @ > 2 amps) it might be time to buy yet another light. (Jeez... Perhaps it's time to ask for help!!! :sick2: )
