hi all.
i have read this forum for a long time. i have found it very helpfull to search this forum. i have many lights including an e2e,tt-2, and a2. i finally fealt compelled to post about something!
many times here i have seen folks compare the tt-2 to the e2e. then i found only one post where it said the tt-2 is more comparable in design to the a2. am i the only other one that feals this way? granted, any surefire is going to be better built,nicer, more rugged etc. than it's streamlight counterpart. indeed the counterpart of the tt-2 is the a2, not the e2e. now i must come to the same conclusion that i read in this one other post. that i now can not seem to locate. yes, as with all surefires the a2 is a way nicer light than the tt-2. however, i would think it would only be worth $100 more to flashaholics(myself included) or people that really must depend on it. intrestingly many of the actions that will kill a tt-2 will ALSO kill an a2! that is why i mostly keep the tt-2 handy. if i kill it i will be out less money. the tt-2 has always performed when called upon. i am the first to say the a2 or any surefire is a nicer light but it isnt for everyone. a lot of folks have a hard time spending $25 for a light. so if i were pressed to chose an e2e over a tt-2 i would have a hard time deciding. one is a better light, the other does more. if you bought a tt-2 instead of an a2. don't feal bad. you are more than half way there. the only really really big plus of the a2 is regulation. then again the e2e does not have regulation. the e2e isn't all that expensive here anyways. so i am just thinking get what ever YOU like best. it doesnt always have to be the best. of course if you really love flashlights try to get them all! yes, even the evereadys!
