I’ve looked at that one. I just can’t help thinking that the rotary dial on the tail would be awkward to maneuver. For me, the Eye10 makes more sense with the rotary dial near the head.

I like it on the tail more, especially while cycling it is easier to change modes.

Btw just found it on intl-outdoor:

hi, new here. I’ve realized this is a 2yrs old thread but was just wondering how the lights held up? I’ve recently bought one for $~25 on sale and well, I’m so happy with it as well. having only owned a streamlight microstream before, this is a huge upgrade, only downfall for me the clip. I’m currently carrying clipless next to my wallet. I’m sure there are a lot better lights out there but for now, I’m contempt, especially for only ~$25 :slight_smile:
