Peer pressure might be overstating it a bit, but you know what I mean: there is some light that people just go on and on about, but you've looked at it and just aren't impressed. After a while you just have to know what all the fuss is about, so you break down and buy one.
What lights have you bought this way, and how has it worked out for you?
Having been here about half a year, it seems like the lights that inspire the most passion ("you have to own one to understand") are Surefire, HDS, Peak, and ZebraLight.
My first CPFPP light was a Peak. I'd heard nothing but raves about them, so I bought a Peak Ural HA. It was a disaster.
Second CPFPP light was the ZebraLight SC600. I love it. It really is a brilliant UI. It's weird, but to me the UI always sounded goofy on paper, yet it's very natural in the hand.
Third will probably be an HDS rotary. Just because I'm sick of hearing about it.
How about you? What are your CPFPP lights, and how do you like them?
