looking for 2 weeks and havent found anything interesting yet, not even while surfing here thru th threads? well, pretty much every manufacturer has a model (or few) for you to choose from..
few to look at:
Nitecore d10 (1 AA light) (easy ramping from low to high, and quick acess to both.. one of the most liked light in here. its also my current every day carry flashlight)
4sevens Quark tactical (1AA) (probably my next EDC flashlight)
Nitecore EZAA (1AA) (interesting simple twisty light with 2 modes)
fenix ld10 (1AA) (very popular multi mode light)
1st need to decide, price range. (most above are under 70)
2nd need to know, the size. (1 cell light or 2 cell light? AA or AAA batteries?)
3rd twisty or cliky on/off (most are clicky switches, and on the rear)
4th need a pocket clip?
Well said! :thumbsup:
The Nitecore D10 R2 for excellent clicky versatility. Easy click combinations that will get you to highest or lowest in a second, and will also remember your last setting next time you turn it on (100 different choices).
Nitecore EZAA for twisty simplicity (Bright high, and not too low of a low so you can still illuminate whatever is inside your CPU without having to squint). I would recommend a warm tint in this light for your line of work so you can be able to tell different colors apart better.
Quark AA / Fenix LD10 if you don't mind twisting every now and then with two hands to access min/max brightness. Excellent lights, but I prefer these lights outdoors. Quark has the cleanest beam and best throw out of all mentioned above, so this might be perfect for your outdoor needs. ( loosen the head to access the modes you will need to work on computers (moonlight, min, med, high, etc), and tighten the head for your outdoor activities (turbo mode, strobe). Not to mention this light also comes in a warm tint as well...
