Hi,
I'm a newbie concerning flashlight, so I have a question for all the expert in this forum (great forum by the way, found a lot's of info on the L1D).
I currently own an Ultrafire B1 and I'm looking for a new flashlight with a little more power and with the following features:
- Multimode, mainly low, mid and hi setting. I don't really have use for SOS or strobe modes, so if they are present it's ok, but if they're not it's not a problem.
- Using 1xAA battery. If it could also you 2xAA with an extension tube or 1 rechargeable lithium it's a plus, but I'm mainly looking for a 1xAA light
- Maximum output of about 100-120 lumen
- Can tail stand
- Good runtime. Something little the Fenix L1D looks attractive: 20-25h at low setting, 4-5h at mid setting, and 1h30-2h at max setting
- Price not higher than 50$
After reading a lot of stuff here and there, I've heard about the Fenix L1D (around 50$) and the Akoray Cree Q5 K-106 (around 22$), but I've found less info about the runtime and lumen about this one.
Fenix seems really nice, but since it's twice the price of the Akoray I'm hesitating...
Could someone give me a little more input (thought, data, charts, spill pictures, etc) to help me make a choice
