Zebralight SC30 questions

Guys, one of our local cops likes my SC30 but would like a strobe mode.

Is this doable or on a different model? He likes the small size and the output of mine though..

Have you tried asking Zebralight if they can sell you one with a strobe mode?

Some of the older zebralights had a strobe but it was removed in favor of two high modes.

The SC50+ has a strobe. --> http://www.zebralight.com/SC50-Flashlight-AA-193Lm_p_24.html

I have one and really like it. It only has the strobe when using AA batteries. When you use a 14500 you loose the strobe but get 193 lumens on high high.

David, no, haven't asked them, figured this was a good place to start.

Dan, that's the thing, I would like for him to retain the high output AND, he likes the shorter SC30.

No strobe for him.

Yeah, that's what I figured.

He'll just have to learn to turn it on and off real quick

The small size of the SC30 is definitely a big appeal of the light, but I think the strobe isn't really fast enough to be good for the things an LEO would be using it for.

The regular Quarks on the other hand, have a very rapid strobe that is quite attention getting... I use mine at night when out for a walk, and it never fails to get drivers' attention to let them know where I am. When walking against the flow of traffic and dealing with drivers doing the looking left while turning right thing, none ever fail to see me coming with it, and most actually back up to clear the sidewalk. I think they think that only a cop would have a light with such a strobe, and try to get out of the way as a result.

Good thinking
