Guys and gals.
Ideally I want a 4XAA constantly variable ring controlled flashlight. But it seems nobody makes one.
So I must settle for a 3XAA or 4XAA light with as many as possible power settings.
So I looked at a Eagletac GX30A3D. It would have been perfect if it did not had a diffuser. I see the diffuser does light up even if you just use the main led. Do you get a model without the diffuser? Is the diffuser bothersome? I am scared it might bother me when using the light. If I want to lit up a room I will use ceiling bounce. I do not want this function.
What else should I look at?
I know of quite a number of 4XAA lights, but the difference between levels is too much.
Like it can have settings of 10 lumens, jumps to 50, but then goes to 400 lumens. That is too much of a gap for me then between 50 and 400 lumens. If there were a 200 lumens setting as well, then I would have been sorted.
Can owners of the GX30A3D please let me know how they experience the diffuse, whether it disturb or blind them etc.
Thanks you all.
