Hi, what do you think about the Pelican Recoil Flashlights.
In my opinion they are not so bright as the Streamlights (PP4AA Luxeon).
What is better by recoil?

I don't own one, but having researched the Sabrelite version I would say that the recoil design helps to keep the beam tight, so that it pierces through smoke/fog/etc. It also works well for silt and mud and stuff in water, as a dive light. Probably one of the better HL rated lights, along with the UK 4AA eLED. .

Thanks

But the Problem I have is: No longer Runtime, not more distance, not more brightness. What is better by Recoil?
I have tested the Streamlight PP4AA Luxeon, it is much better, in my opinion, as the 2010 Recoil.
The Recoil Headsup Light are the same, good Spot, but only for very far distance, not so good for an Headlamp, what do you think?
