If you could take one torch and make some changes so it potentially became in your opinion ... The Best, OF The Best, Of The Best ... which torch would it be and what would the changes be???
I'll start the ball rolling ..... Jetbeam / Niteye II Pro ... Plus points as it is ....
Tiny, so easy to pocket and probably the best beam profile I have of any torch with a mix between throw for something so small but still has decent spill ... love this little torch but could also be really pee'd off with it because it's so close ... yet so far from ideal.
Things that would make it massively better.
Warmer Tint ... would make a huge difference or at least the option of cool vs neutral white as the only current option is quite cool and harsh on the eyes ...
Modes ... the 100 lm I think is at least that compared to other quality brand torches ... you don't need that most of the time ... One more mode before that round the 60 lm level and it'd make it much easier on the eye for general walking and could massively increase it's run time making it even more appealing than it currently is.
Other options for them.
If you've changed the tint / modes to extend run time, use the same head size head offering the same brilliant beam pattern and put it on a AA and a 18650 (Thinking DQG Tiny size here) but keep both of the torches as small as possible and you'd have a complete winner throughout!!!!
It's quite frustrating because it is such a perfect mix between having a reasonable throw .. especially for it's size, but also a decent spill which is where so many "throwers" fall down.
So what have you got that you can easily see how to make it even better .... to the extent it'd become your all time favourite and what are the changes you'd make???
