For the last few years my to go light has always been my Fenix L1T - great size, commonly available batteries (eneloops as standard, plus the ability to use any AA I have to hand), simple two mode (high/low) operation with a fantastic UI (clicky on/off, twist head for high/low) and so far proving itself great value and tough as anything.
Sadly my L1T has gone walkabouts, so it is time to consider a replacement - the question is what on the market nowadays compares? I would honestly be happy enough with another L1T if they are still available, but if there are new equivalents with new emitters and so on I wouldn't say no.
I am not looking for anything complicated or fancy - I have no desire to end up tapping away changing modes rather than presetting it like possible with the L1T and turning it on at my chosen setting. I do have the LD01, and TBH it is more of a faff to set than I would like...
As far as I can see there is no direct replacement other than the more complicated LD10 from Fenix, but I am open to ideas...
TL;DR - 1AA, clicky switch, simple two mode operation or similar, any ideas?
