Eastward Cree, R2-WC, 250-Lumen

jamie.91 · Aug 4, 2009

hello fellow CPF'ers

not suprisingly i am looking for a new light but this time i want something bigger and brighter:devil:, up to now i have had a romisen RC-N3 and some other little cr123 lights but nothing worth shouting about and now i want something a bit bigger with some throw.

so my question is ... What first propper light would you recomend ( and heres the catch) for no more than $30

since being an apprentice $30 is my absolute maximum at this moment in time.

also what are your opinions on this

Various talks about it there. No real review of it exists.

This quote...

you might also want to consider a EastwardYJ YJ-XGR2 (DX SKU 17382)

I received one from DX yesterday. It is finished in the darkest black I think I have ever seen. II throws the brightest center spot I have seen to date from any of the CRE X emitters, admittedly an R2. But if this light is 250 lumens then how can the UltraFire WF-606A put out 230 lumens? The Eastward YJ's umbra is brighter than the hot spot of the 606A. its hot spot is brighter than the hot spot of the Aurora you mentioned, indeed its low beam hot spot is brighter than the 606's hot spot.

...from THIS hread.
