The options are making my brain hurt!

I am new to the forum, working on some moding projects but also looking for my first purchase. I am an electrician at the railroad so I want a edc light with good throw and decent flood as well. Perhaps more focus on throw. I have read hundreds of posts and made huge lists of what lights sound best, the problem is there are WAY TOO MANY OPTIONS!:confused:. Im moderately timid to jump on any one that I have picked.



Here is the few that I have narrowed it down to:

-Fenix pd-31

-MG P-Rocket SST-50 Premium

-trust series model II (not so confident on this one)

-EagleTac T20C2 Tactical

-Olight M20S Warrior Premium R5



My stipulations:

-good throw

-bright as possible but I don't want to have to turn it off of high after 30 minutes or risk burning. I want a light that can run constantly in high mode if need be.

-pocket clip

-under 100 dollars

-use 2 x cr123a or 1 x 18650

-approx 5 long will consider slightly longer, approx 1 wide

-3 modes low, med, high. no strobe, sos etc....

-o-ringed

-very durable



Am I on the right track with these options? Are any of them old technology?

I know this question has been asked before but with the xm-l being relatively new out I haven't been able to find any flashlights fitting these criteria using that emitter. I appreciate any input, I have really enjoyed reading this forums for hours each day, even tho my wife hates it!

I know the options are subjective but can someone just tell me what to buy :)
