My favorite lights are the small but powerful single cell stuff I EDC, currently a Jetbeam BC 10 running an rcr123 and one of two old modded single AAA lights. The Streamix original running the LD01 stainless head from the Christmas run they make every year. Or the same Streamlight body with a Preon head, both running the 10440.These have both been great lights, very powerful forward clicky with low and very high modes which make them perfect for me.
With that said I am always on the lookout for next best thing that fits my needs, mostly newer brighter small single cell lights.
I am a custom knifemaker and the Blade show was this past weekend, what a blast! The best thing was picking up a couple new lights from Going Gear and their awesome try before you buy light tables.
The Sunwayman has been around for awhile with the control ring so I finally grabbed one of those. Really wanted to get the same thing but the Jet Beam RRT01 with the control ring/strobe but could not find one at the show in stock for purchase.
Saved the best for last, this new Lenser P3 AFS P just blew me away! This thing is super bright with the bezel slid forward for the spot beam, beat out any other aaa light I have had and this is running a single AAA alkaline battery! Nice tight spot for great throw really super bright and the focus moved back to the flood setting is cool and kind of works as a low setting. I do wish it had a second brightness level, a nice low low setting would be great but I still like it the way it is. Anyone else grabbed one of these yet, the new version of the P3?
Your thoughts on any of these lights?
Thanks
Matt
