I can’t find much info on this one but the selling price of the UltraTac T15 is around $40
Nitecore EC23 XHP35 HD E2 1800Lumens High Performance EDC LED Flashlight 18650
I picked one of these up for about $40 at BG. They aren’t doing a deal right now but with a little patience who knows?
How about a BLF A6 or an S2+ with XHP? I think that will be awesome. Most of the times I want my EDC on low levels but handy to have high output and long range.
So what would be an advantage of the xhp35 over the xhp50.2? I suppose throw would be one. I was going to build one with a 50.2 since the output is higher and I can run it on a lower voltage.
Olight M2R has an XHP35
No such reliable driver yet :cry:
I like mine even though I prefer a warmer tint. Worth the price I think
Great find, thanks for posting! Budget priced! 1500lm 15855cd
But as you said not much info, can’t find a good description of the dual switch UI. Appears to be only 2 sources where to buy it: Kaidomain and ebay.
On the T15 page you linked in your post there’s a button for a user manual but it doesn’t work. I’m going to contact them about or KD about it.
Another good find! Thanks for posting!1800lm 16,200cd
I have the Nitecore edc23. It is VERY impressive. I very much like it. The UI is excellent and user friendly. The light is the perfect.
yet another! Thanks for posting. Wait… a NW version from Olight?? YES! :+1: :+1: :+1:
Plus it fits the magnetic charging dock (optional) I really love that system.
After buying several Olight in the past (S15, S20, s30) I’ve had to steer away from them because of no NW option.
Definitely a decent price, I’m tempted to give it a try, especially if it tint isn’t overly cold/bluish. I’ll have to read up on some reviews for it, seems there’s are quite a few here. Someone on the Nitecore store site reported the EC23 had better color rendering, (he also has a Concept1) But I much prefer the smaller size and smoother look of the Concept1.
Impressive list. They all seem very nice.
Is there an overall standout?
OP updated with all the additions that were posted so far. (that fit the size category)
The list is growing fast!………
Mostly all XHP35, so far only one with XHP50, the Eagtac DX3B mini’s
That’s what I meant. All the ones on the list look great and can’t afford to buy them all.
Which one to get….decisions, decisions……
Well that would be very subjective (if that’s the correct word)
Different people have different needs and desires!
.
The standouts for me personally are:
EagTac DX3B Mini Pro (small, sleek, powerful, MANY emitter choices incl. NW versions, tail magnet)
Nitecore Concept 1 (small, sleek, powerful, tail magnet, a switch you can find in total darkness, reasonably priced)
Olight M2R warrior (NW version, Magnetic Charging Dock compatible, Tactical Tail switch)
.
Although out of category (not really a tube style size with its slightly larger head), this one also is a standout for me:
SC600w Mk IV Plus - 2300lm (XHP50.2) Battery: 18650 - Size:96mm (L) x 30mm (Head Dia.)
I think its short 96mm length may make up for the larger head, plus the larger reflector would have its benefits as well.
I was thinking the same thing, as the list gets bigger - the decision gets tougher :disappointed:
My thoughts exactly, I couldn’t agree more.
Seeing all the lights I’ve listed of comparable size it tells me there ARE reliable drivers out there, but I guess none are available to us …at least not yet 
Could you possibly include typical pricing alongside each of them (normal and with coupon)
