Hello!
I'll make it as short as possible:

I wanna impress a friend with a 6D-Mag.
My flashlight should:
- be brighter (of course)
- have a tight beam (like fully focused mag)
- not run with lithiums
- cost not more than 70 $

I thought about sl6. A good choice ?
thx

TigerLight's $20 over, but it'll blow the bulb straight out of a 6D Mag...

An SL6 would do fine if you want the cost below $60...

A PT Surge will compete quite well with a M$g 6D, and it's AA based, small and cheap.

You want to impress/humiliate your friend? Spend the extra 20 bucks and get the tigerlight FBOP model. It's MUCH smaller than the 6D Mag, as well as MUCH MUCH brighter. He'll feel like quite the goof standing there holding his baseball bat while you've got something that will fit in your pocket.
If you can't swing the TL, go for the Surge.

ok, if this is a matter of humiliating your friends...you need to go all out! (well, almost anyway)

get the tiger light, and i also recommend getting a lens from www.flashlightlens.com

SL6 sounds like a good choice, take a look at Brock's Web Page for comparison info on a lot of incandescent flashlights.

scroll to the bottom of the page for the comparison chart
