Greetings
I am a nightclub bouncer in New York City. I carry a Maglite 3 C cell on my belt, as much for personal protection as a light source, but all that weight and hardly any light generated has me thinking. I was drooling over the Surefire E2D until I realized how tiny it is! I figure I need a light 7" long, which takes me to the C3 and the 8NX Commander. 150 bucks seems like a lot of money to me, but are there big advantages to rechargable over lithium batteries? I deal with drunks and people on drugs regularly and feel I need something with some "heft" in case my personal safety is in jeopardy and I need to wack someone (only as a last resort).
Thanks for your help,
ethan
