Looking for a AA Dual Output light

Hello,

I'm an ex user of a mini maglite (incandescent upgraded to LED, which died a few days ago) and an ex user of a Surefire G2 (not the X version) which was lost.

Can someone recommend me a AA (or 2AA) flashlight that has;
- two modes at least (high output and low (below 100 lumens for low preferably))
- Budget is 100 (Canadian..)
- Handheld
- Between 4-7 inches (not looking for anything smaller, some "heft" is preferred)
- LED
- Not interested in assembling my own (as I have no experience with that)
- Max lumens (preferably anything above 300)
- I am unsure of the flood/throw
- Distance = flexible (would like to use from up to 5 - 100 yards if possible)
- Durability = Critical
- Switch Size and Type = No Preference
- UI = Don't know
- Material / Finishing = No preference
- IPX7 and above
- Storage conditions = varied

I have been looking at the following as candidates but I am undecided:
- Lumintop Tool AA 2.0 (It's too "small", I would prefer something bigger / heftier)
- Nitecore EA11 (Discontinued (or Sold Out?) on Nitecore's website) - Is there another Nitecore AA flashlight taking its place?

--
(I've also considered Nitecore's P30 flashgliht as I simply like the "look" of it, but unfortunately it is not AA)
Ps. The Malkoff AA light doesn't seem like it's powerful enough according to the specs on the website (and they are a little pricey for me, even tho they are "bomb proof")


Thank you for your time

Have you looked at eagletac? I have a ti-AA that's best AA I have had.

Actually Eagletac also offers a 2AA light that will be more hefty and more powerful and with longer run time than the 1AA light including the one in Titanium.

I have a few of these and they have been real workhorses for years for me!

You can also get them with a Clicky switch or a Twisty depending on your preference.

The ET are also about the slimmest AA lights that I know of.

The Fenix LD22 is also a great light that runs on 2AA.

Hello,

Thank you for the replies.

I'm torn between Ealetac's D25A Clicky MK2 and Lumintop's Tool AA 2.0 ...

(I couldn't find the flashlights both of you were referring to on Eagletac's website)

I'm not so sure about Fenix, something about their style that doesn't quite appeal to me.

Are there any other AA (or 2AA) flashlights I should be considering?

Thank you

Just wanna' give another
Big Thumbs Up
to the Fenix LD22 flashlight !

:thumbsup:



Fine choice, indeed !

My two recommendations are too short for you: Utorch UT01 and Wuben E05.
