Hey everyone,
I'm new to this community. Been looking around online at TONS of videos and reviews etc. looking for a light. I thought it time to finally come on here and ask for suggestions based on my requirements. Any help narrowing it down between the million options would be great. The Fenix
Requirements:
1. AA batteries (2 or 4 of them, doesn't matter, but of course 2 preffered)
2. Multiple lumen stages (max 500, just don't see the point beyond that and its more difficult to get witih AA anyways, would prefer the longer run time at less lumens (230 and up)
3. Similar size to Fenix PD35/Thrunite TN12
4. SOS mode (and also strobe if possible)
5. Click button on tail activated (even better if change modes from there too)
I won't put a budget requirement as I'm willing to pay for a good quality item. Don't want cheap and dinky. I loved the Fenix PD35 and Thrunite TN12 until I found out they weren't AA flashlights. Then I found the Thrunite Neutron 2A V2 which seemed perfect (AA operated, could do 230 lumens for 4hrs and still had the high turbo option if you wanted it) but the reviews complained of bad battery drain problems. Perhaps there are a couple of key raved-about lights from other brands I haven't heard of that are AA and offer long run-times in the 250-500 lumen range that have the nice sleek and/or tactical look of the PD35/Thrunite TN12?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
