Whats the new big 2 x rcr123/18650 light?

I haven't been around the forum for many a month now, funds deciding that. Seems this hobby is mighty tough $$$ wise on the pocket book.

The last time I was around, the Fenix TK11 R2 was the big heavy hitter for spill and mainly throw.

Has anything over the last year become the new heavy hitter for a 2-3 mode light? More than 3 modes is not needed. I prefer a HIGH and a low, medium would be fine.

What should I be considering? or is the TK11 still one of the top contenders?

Price wise, looking to spend around $100 tops.

Come on now... this used to be a pretty awesome place where someone would chime in and offer their 2 cents relatively quick. :tired:

The EDC-MCE is a really nice light. It needs IMR cells though to perform its best, like all other MCE/P7 lights. I think its in the $100 range

I picked up an MG-PLI a few months back, the thing is about as bright as I've seen EVER in a single 18650 light. I'd recommend this to anyone!

I recently got this light in warm white (which is sold out at Shiningbeam) for my younger brother.

He is really impressed by its throw and spill seein how its a quad die LED in a 53mm reflector. For its price point, i'd say its one of the better lights you can get (but personally i prefer the warm white)

Might consider thee EagleTac T20C2. New model has the XPG led and is quite powerful.
