What's the current hot EDC?

For me Zebra sc600w mk3 Hi. Perfect light.

I find this interesting because I found that I was quite unimpressed but that one. I got it and the Sofirm SP10 V2.0 at the same time and even though the Sofirm is much cheaper and not as bright, I find it to be a much nicer to use light.

FW3A for me

prior was Tool AA v2.0

prior was Fenix PD35-tac

I like all the suggestions. Thanks. I did order, and am waiting for delivery for the S2 XP-L HI. One of the reasons is because I could order the shorty body and use it with a 18650 or using the shorty body the 18350 which is actually my preferred size for an EDC. My current love affair is with the SolarForce L2M because it can also be used with a long body and a short body and using the L2T head that doesn’t have the hex section makes the whole short body very light and it has a 35MM head and reflector so I get more from the LED. And what is making it even better is now I can buy the triple LEDs and power them with a 18350. But I am very curious about the S2 so I’m anxious for it to arrive.

Emisar D4 v.2 with AUX lighting and 95 CRI LED choices.

FW3A

Enough folks have burned holes in their pockets (and other things) with the D4 to confirm that it is indeed the current HOT EDC.

Yeh mine got a bit hot ,started smoking & melted itself off,
Dbstar had his meltdown after a small drop,
:smiley:

Did you figure out the cause.

No , it’s dead ,I’m waiting on neal to sort it out ,he said he will send a new head a few weeks ago but no joy yet , he’s not responding to my emails anymore. :weary:

From what I hear, you’ll get it. Too bad we are starting to get failure reports. No common theme though. It would be a PITA to lock out the FW3A at the tail cap every time.

EDC is my Fenix LD02. Walking around the house at night a BLF A6 in CW.
I am surprised more have not mentioned the A6. It is an excellent light.
I paid 17.85 for it on sale from banggood. It took nearly a month to arrive!

ROFIS MR70

lol, almost as many lights as answers
Jetbeam RRT-01

My hot EDC picks are three Convoys: M1, S2 and S2. Not the current top of the line, but they’re cheap, sturdy, bright enough for me (I plain and simple have no need for 1000 lumens), pocketable, and extremely versatile with Biscotti.

Is the BLF A6 basically the same as the Convoy S2?

No.

They are about the same size and shape, but they are completely different flashlights.

The BLF A6 is the same as the Astrolux S1. (except the Astrolux S1 package includes an extra 18350 tube)

I have been carrying a BLF A6 for years…so long that the anodizing has practically worn off, no longer black but grey…still kicking and making buckets of light
Did a spring bypass when I first got it…haven’t looked back
