Pelican Mitylite Magnum 2AA vs SF E1 beamshot

I have been very impressed with the beam quality of these little Pelicans. I took these beamshots for posting in B/S/T but thought I would throw them in over here for those that might be interested in them. Pictures are taken with the lights six feet away from a normal cinder block wall.

Pelican 2AA on the left, Surefire E1 on the right:


Pelican 2AA by itself. Here you can get a better idea of the size of the hotspot by using the block it is pointed at for reference:

Thanks man! I've been wanting to see a beam shot of the Mitylite 2aa. You think that the magnum(tailcap switch version right?) and the regular 2aa are the same? cause im wanting the regular version because it's smaller.

I have a regular version Mity Lite and it mimics the beam shown above. It does so with a nicely textured reflector.

So go grab one, I don't think you will be disappointed!

Do a short drop test on the bulb. I have had very bad experiences with Pelican flashlights.

try the E1x with a KL1.

V8t,

Sorry to here that. I have had very good luck with them. I have one of these that has been bouncing around in the truck for a couple months now, and a 3C Pelikan that is on the same bulb agter almost 6 years. I have a coupld 2AAA that are older that than on the original bulbs. I don't run any of them a lot, and I don't toss them around when I can avoid it, but they have all gotten dropped and banged a pretty good bit.


Tkl,

You want a beamshot??

What is the runtime for the Mitylite?

[/ QUOTE ] nah, just making a suggestion to the poster. he was comparing the E1 lamp against the mitylite, i find the KL bezel on the E1 superior to the lamp.

I've had good luck with Pelican lights and abuse. I've never broken a lamp.

The only problem with the MityLites is that their beams are TOO narrow for me. The Super MityLite (2AAA) shoots a pinpoint of light. LOL.

Pelican > Maglite

How's the side-spill from the Pelican?
