My brother's b-day is coming up...so I ordered two lights for him: 4Sevens Preon 2 in Blue and the Quark Mini 123 Al.

I think that will be the only lights I purchase for May...I think...

Just ordered one of http://www.shiningbeam.com/servlet/the-212/**NEW**-Romisen-RC-dsh-N3-CREE/Detail

New item! The lumens grabbed me. Bryan also lists a 2-mode for about the same, but no other details listed -- I'm guessing it's got a medium mode, like the other Romisens, but may be not quite as bright in high. Anyway, if I want less that 280, I got a light or two for that in another pocket. No -- not warm white (maybe even a bit green) but the lumens got me: that's a nice number for many purposes -- and it's a good addition to my Romisen collection.


*This Customized RC-N3 uses a Premium CREE XP-G R4 emitter, about 70% more output than the regular model*
*Uses premium 2B tint Cree XP-G R4*


* This light comes with an extension tube, which allows you to use it in 2 formats 1 X CR123A or 2 X AA
* Tactical monentary-on forward switch

* Constant brightness: Up to 280 LED Lumens
* Compatible with 2 x AA and 1x CR123A
* Runs fine with some RCR123A, but not recommended by manufacturer
* Water resistant design
* Aluminum alloy casing
* Glow in the dark tail cap
* Textured (OP) aluminum reflector

No sooner does my wallet fatten up, then I order:

1. An Eagletac P100C2 with a XP-E Q4 neutral tint emitter;
2. A SureFire G2 Desert Tan (incan), plus an F04 beam-shaper for my E1L ,E2E and Jet 1 Pro v3; and
3. A Malkoff M60LF for the G2.

I think I am now set for hiking/camping/biking lights.

Though a D10 or NDI with a Q3 5A is appealing, and there's that high CRI Ra Clicky that keeps calling to me. But I'll have wait for the next fun-money infusion.

Was just planning on just looking this month after (for me) expensive April.

Then a Jil CR2 and a Liteflux LF2XT (natural) with a WW emitter showed up yesterday.
The Jil has the best threads & HA3 anodizing I have ever seen, but is headed back to it's owner. I'd be afraid to carry it around.

The LF2XT however is staying here. I see know why these little jewels are so coveted here.
Just an amazing little light in all respects.
Now looking at 10440 batteries to feed it, even though it seems perfect on just Eneloops.

Most likely have to add a WW mini Quark CR2 before the run is sold out & I'm done for May (fingers crossed).

Might pull the trigger on a Catapult soon though :thinking:
