I think the new Astrolux lights and the Emisars are definitely up there. I love my MF-01 and D4 more than most everything else I have bought this year.
Having said that, how about the best actual budget light of the year? Or the best all around for the money?
With those criteria, I would have to give it to the Zanflare F1. For the money you spend (with a code) and what you get, I would have to say it is definitely the best all around budget light of 2017. Is there a better light out there for $9.99-$12.99? If so, I haven’t yet found it.
My vote goes to the Nitecore EC23. It’s 1/4th of an inch shorter than my Fenix PD35 and nearly twice as bright 960 vs 1800 lumens. I can’t wait to see where they take this next.
1. My best light of 2017 is probably the BLF Q8...... Because.......its the only light I bought for myself in 2017 :D And I havent even used it properly.
2. BLF GT? But I haven`t received it yet, so would have to wait and see if it should be on next year`s list ;)
Thank you for continuing the tradition.
It is really fun to see what lights made the list in the past years! It`s a nice sum up of flashlight history on BLF!!!
Sorry I missed that. Still a bit late though, I don’t see how an item can be voted for already as a 2017 item without any actual production run owners.
I need to get me some of these lights. I have my name on the list for the BLF GT.
Anybody know where I can get a XP-L HI V3 1A ? MTN have the V2 whats the differance.
