    New Product Announcement - NITECORE P26 Infinite Brightness Tactical Flashlight

    How is the beam of this P26 going to compare to the MT22C? I can see from the specs that the 1000 lumens are the same, but the LED is different and the throw of the P26 is further. Is that due entirely to the LED or is there some difference in the head/reflector? I do see the difference in...

    That is tremendously helpful. Thank you!

    REVIEW: Nitecore SRT9 Flashlight

    Would someone people offer a subjective opinion on the throw of the SRT9 compared to the SRT7GT? At ~100-200 yards or meters, is the beam width significantly wider on the SRT9? Is the intensity within the hot spot incrementally or significantly more? While overall light output of the SRT9 is...

    What replaces the JetBeam RRT-01?

    I saw that and contacted them but it turns out the website was wrong. They didn't actually have that stock. Thanks for the suggestions. I have a Nitecore SRT3 on the way and will likely also try a Sunwayman as well. The Niteeye EYE10 is available in some places but otherwise appears to be...

    What replaces the JetBeam RRT-01?

    For those of you who appreciate the rotary/magnetic control rings as I do, what replaces the JetBeam RRT-01? Unfortunately the RRT-01 has been discontinued (even though JetBeam still has it on their website) and JetBeam has confirmed for me that no one in the US has any inventory to sell. I did...

    What replaces the Eagletac M3C4?

    I did buy the AceBeam K40M. I thought about the K40L or K40S which are more true throwers but went with the K40M since most of time I'll only be pointing at a distance of about 200m. The K40M definitely puts out a wall of light. Given the size of the head & reflector, I was actually surprised...

    What replaces the Eagletac M3C4?

    I just saw/realized that the Acebeam K40 uses only 3x18650, so it won't be quite as big (as the K60/K70). I think I'll give one of the K40 models a try to see if my wife would be happy with that. Thanks for the suggestion. I wouldn't have re-considered Acebeam if you hadn't suggested it.

    What replaces the Eagletac M3C4?

    I laughed when you welcomed me to the forum. I actually joined in 2008 but have more than 500x fewer posts than you do. Clearly I need to contribute more. I would LOVE a Cool Fall Spy. So far I haven't quite been able to justify it but perhaps I should give it another look as I am a huge fan of...

    What replaces the Eagletac M3C4?

    I own several of these and have given several as gifts but since I can no longer get any I'm looking for the next-closest replacement. The things I specifically like about the M3C4 are: - The 5-level control ring. I absolutely love this for the one-handed operation. It's so simple to adjust...

    JetBeam M1X + JetBeam RRT15 + Sunwayman V60C = ?????

    Last night and this morning I spent several hours looking at the lights suggested in this thread and I'm going to give the Eagletac M3C4 a shot. Thank you, peterharvey73, for mentioning the optional tail end clicky switch because I didn't notice that the first time around. That will let me set...

    JetBeam M1X + JetBeam RRT15 + Sunwayman V60C = ?????

    I believe (though I'm not 100% certain) that both Sunwayman lights and the Olight won't meet my criteria because you cannot control which brightness level you are going to get when turning on the light. I believe they always turns on to the previous light level, and you can't change the light...

    JetBeam M1X + JetBeam RRT15 + Sunwayman V60C = ?????

    What if I trade the infinite variable brightness control for a light that has at least a low/mid/high that you can set before turning on the light, like the JetBeam RRT1 R5? That would at least let me set the light level before turning on the light and have one more level than my M1X. Does...

    JetBeam M1X + JetBeam RRT15 + Sunwayman V60C = ?????

    Summary: Is there a light with the usability of an RRT15 (variable brightness + separate on/off switch) with 700+ lumens and good throw like the M1X or V60C? I have owned a JetBeam M1X for quite some time but always disliked only having only two quickly accessible modes (user setting & high)...

    AW 18650 problems with JetBeam M1X

    Let me start by saying that I have made multiple purchased from AW. I use and absolutely love his rechargeable batteries in about 10 different lights and will continue to buy more. I simply have a problem with my JetBeam M1X that is somewhat unique to the manner in which the JetBeam works...
