Review: EagleTac D25LC2 Clicky 12-mode

Yes, nice one Kreisler. Nice to get a bit of historical background, and fully referenced material. Reminds me of the time I was a student :slight_smile:

Nice review thank you. :slight_smile:

Have to say I was so looking forward to this light, I have the Twisty version. But very disappointed in the final design. I thought it’d be a twisty with tail switch but retain the same design and awesome deep carry pocket clip. They did with the D25C clicky, but for some reason the D25LC2 seems to have grown more so and the awesome pocket clip is missing :frowning:

Yes, it’s called the D25LC2 Mini and runs on 2xCR123A’s or 1x18650. They also do a slightly slimmer D25C2 which isn’t wide enough for an 18650 if you prefer primaries only (or a 16650).

I’ve got the XP-G S2 version and it’s an awesome little light, best feature is the pocket clip, sadly missing on the new clicky version.

WHAT? Is Kreisler doing a giveaway?

Marvelous… :slight_smile:

I just really wish their aa version worked right on 14500s.

nice review, work in progress and/or giveaway :slight_smile:

I'm either blind or looked in the wrong place, but I found the mini only with XPG, not XML.

You might be correct if you are wanting an XM-L version. Sadly while the EagleTac website looks pretty, it’s friggin awful to navigate and highly contradictory, claiming one thing on one page and something else on another.

If you are specifically after an XM-L Mini I’d suggest emailing EagleTac direct and ask them if it’s available.

WAW,Saved me some money reading all that,didnt bother eating FOR 3 DAYS[:disguised_face: or buying a news paper.
Thanks for the info.Havent owned an Eagle Tac.Would consider it more now after reading your findings.Very Impressed

As a giveaway it would be kewl.Why not do a giveaway chain.The guy who gets it,gives something away to someone and so on……

Have a rest now,ya finger tips must be blistered

DON…

Nice detailed review, I read the rastagio review, he obviously wants to be in with the brand name boys…… I wonder what he’d make of a uf2100e with a decent cell rather than an ultrafire one :wink:

Hi Kreisler, why dont you extend your review in your 3rd post.
just ask the 2nd and 3rd poster to delete their post, so you can just expand yours

how about copy and paste.
Im pretty sure you use a .doc document from where you copy and paste your whole review. At least that would be the safest way.
and if you edit your original file, you just need to copy and paste the original in your post.
(delete your old text, and paste your new)
when you have 2 consecutive posts, it wouldnt bother people to read it!

I meant, copy the first half of the file in the first post… the second part in the second post.

the problem seems like to be in the max. words per single post.
so if you just divide it somewhere in the middle, and move that section to your second post?

I guess that that wouldnt affect the thread!
for me at least, I wouldnt care to have to read a review that is split in 2 posts, as long as their are no other posts in between

and so it shall be written and written and written!!!

Thanks very much! Frontpage’d and Sticky’d.

Kreisler, you will need my address to send this giveaway light to :wink:

i am not so sure that youd want my copy ..

hehe ;)

Ok, kreisler, I admit it took me forever to read this review. I've had it bookmarked for a couple of months. By far my favorite little jewel is this:

"2012-10-08 kreisler : Review: EagleTac D25LC2 Clicky XM-L U2, humbly acknowledging the ambitious and successful review efforts of previous reviewers and that their work cant be emulated by any means let alone surpassed he prefers to gather notable existing sources of third-party info regarding the product à la literature research and evaluate their utility. does a great job in doing so. a unique and fantastic approach of reviewing a flashlight: a review of flashlight reviews!! incredible that dude, kreisl once more an original hero in the flashlight scene! duh"

An incredibly thorough review! You piqued my interest in EagleTac many months ago and guided me in my selection of the D25A Clicky Ti (thank you again). The D25LC2 will be my next 18650 purchase.

i have this model with the coloured leds….does exist any cheaper flashlite with colored leds,which you can change by clickie system or so…? this eagle is too expensive…
