I voted HDS originally. But since getting an SC52, it's been pretty much all Zebralight.

Mainly a 120 HDS HCRI. Sometime another HDS model or a MDC gets taken instead.

My EDC light typically changes depending on what is newest for me.

My current EDC is my very heavily modded Aleto N8, now sporting a bare aluminum look, metal side button and fresnel lens. Driver is a 3.8 amp Nanjg105c with DrJones Mokkadrv e-switch firmware. Emitter is a 5000k XPL High-Intensity. In its current form this light is a 92mm tube-shaped zoomie powered by 1x18650. I measure throw at a modest 20k lux.

My other EDC is a modded DQG 18650 Tiny III, sporting a newer version of the same driver as in my N8 also 3.8 amps. Emitter is triple High-Intensity XPL (two of the emitters are 4000k, the third is 5000k).

Since 12/2012 I've been using a JetBeam RRTO w/ a 16340. If this breaks or gets lost, I think I'll replace it w/ a LED Lenser P5R.2. I'm a bit fascinated w/ the whole magnetic connection/charging base...

Mine has always been an HDS for many years. There was a period of about close to 3 years which I always have a McGizmo XM-L Haiku as my favorite but the HDS is always with me. Now then Haiku gets left on the shelf with occasional use but more and more HDS are joining the family here. I have many other lights but none can compare to a HDS. You will have to feel it to know why we are all crazy about it. I think it is really the perfect EDC.

That poll should have "Other" as a choice.

My current EDC is a DQG 18650 Mini Tiny III. I replaced the guts on mine, so it's currently sporting a 3.8 amp driver with DrJones Mokkadrv firmware powering triple XPL HI on a copper Noctigon with Carclo 10507 optic. I figure maybe 1200-1400 lumens of nice neutral white light.

I'll likely go back to my modded Aleto N8 zoomie, but I just Duracoated it again and have to wait a month for the Duracoat to cure.
