Hey guys, I need new hosts for drop-ins, but want to try non-surefire brands. Please let me know your feelings pros and cons on each of these brands since I am completely new to them. thanks!

I don't have the stainless SF host, but I have some aluminium ones.Hmm, not much seraph love here. The stainless solarforce def looks good. Do I need to change switch for high output engines?
Both are fine, and good value for the price ....
Their (clicky) switches are not high-current capable, so you may want to upgrade those parts, if you plan to use high Amp dropins.
Each Seraph includes both a twisty and clicky tail cap, plus extra O-rings. For 3amp and over loads they recommend using the clicky tail cap only.
I thought the twisty would be able to handle higher amps than the clicky. I prematurely wore out a Solarforce clicky using a direct-drive dropin. Skylumens fixed me up for a great price.
Hey Ven,
Thanks again for the photos; as always, a great resource. Would you say the Seraph is more slippery than the SolarForce? Are you going to use it for work?
I'm thinking the same. The clicky switches on my SP-6 and SP-9 are both marked "Max. 2A". I only purchased the hosts (not the kits with accessories), so I don't have a twisty to compare.I thought the twisty would be able to handle higher amps than the clicky.
