what are your top three EDC flashlight

Hey i did'nt get to name my 3 most used lights....for edc use i would have to go with L2m, ITP SA1, and the Romi RC-A4. These do get rotated out with other lights of course, i like to have one for indoor use and a small throwy light like the ITP C9 or the SA1.

iTP A3 EOS - On my keychain

Romisen RC-B3 w/ Q3-5C - On my desk within reach (I'm there a LOT)

iTP A2 EOS or Streamlight Microstream - In my shirt pocket

I like this question because it changes all the time ..

AAA - 701 tank

cr 123- nitecore EX10

AA - Eastward YJ J09 or a Tank 566

I like tanks cheap,great tints ,super build,what's not to like ?

This question leads to the next one .. that asks .... what light are you going to buy next ??

maybe a thrunite catapult xml ...for starters

Hooray for Necro-Threads! Since I joined after this thread started, here's my edc:

Home: Fenix LDO1 /w 10440 on keychain and Zebralight SC60 in the pocket

Work: MG P-Rocket in the belt holster, Zebra H51 on the hardhat, and a good ol' C78 in the pocket.

I'm starting to collect torches at a disturbing pace, but so far those 5 haven't been de-throned.

Maratac / ITP 3mode AAA [ very nice ]

Ultrafire A20 1 x RCR123A [ one is SSC P7 - the other is XM-L T5 ]

Ultrafire RL-168 [ moded to SSC P4 ]

Since my original post 7 months ago, the one I use 90% of the time is the Aurora SH-034.

Clips to my belt..........flood-throw, useable beam to ~50m........and cheap.

I think it is the same as mine here.

Since I've only recently become an addict, I have only a few months' experience to play with, but...

Just can't complain about the trusty Fenix E01! This little guy gets the job done and inspires confidence. I couldn't see NOT carrying a flashlight now.

My other jacket-pocket light is a fairly new RMSEN RV-107. Crummy switch, gobs of light (especially compared to the E01), great price.

Come spring, we'll have to decide on a "motorcycle cubbyhole" flashlight... probably one of my Romisen RC-29s.

Lights on my keychain (always with me): Akoray K-102 head + homemade body to accomodate 10280 li-ion cell, DX 3xLR41 keychain light modded with Nichia GS 10 lumens 5 mm led. This is my main backup and secondary backup lights. The primary light depend of the mood.

AAA - Mr Lite KC-05. Covered with some clear vinyl shelving liner because the finish isn't that good, but it's always on my keychain.

AA - Sipik Sk-68. Zoomable, good output, cheap, fits well under my suits. Need to try it with a 14500

18650 - Modded Techlite Lumen Master. XP-E Q3 modded to take an 18650 instead of an AAA battery holder. ~180 lumens, I can use a 3-mode soft switch.

Cool pic of your keys on your 'light chain'. :bigsmile:

Stainless steel DQG AAA clicky

FW3A

Not at all, it's a great thread!

1. Trustfire TR-801 with moded driver (AK-47) with hi-med-lo.

2. Sipik 68 zoomie

3. 504B alternative version (look at manafont) wit their R5 dropin 5 mode. It is EDC when climate requres to wear a jacket of some sort. (currently using the XM-L P60 cannon)

This was my favorite flashlight... a custom light using a Luxeon and an N-cell. Beat out my Arc AAA and even my Arc4+ for sheer beauty and versatility.

Then I was absent from the scene for a few years.

Right now it is my iTP A1. The little sucker is brighter than my Elektrolumens Blaster and hotwire Mag, which used to be the brightest lights I owned!

My Fav is EDCs are my Nitecores. These go out when it seems to suit the trip - indoor - NDI/D10, outdoor - NEx

D10, NDI, NEx

Got these during the garage sales and second hand, so although not normally budget, they definitely were budget priced (thinks of that poll asking about buying name brand at half price vs good budget lights)

I had 10440 and 14500 lights with me for some time, but I found they are empty too fast. So I usually carry a compact 18650 light in my pocket: the stock UltraFire P10-R5. Recently however I modded my UltraFire A10B with an XP-G R4 4B neutral white LED @1.4A, and now I carry that, even though it is a bit bigger.

Currently it is definitely my Mr.Lite J4 with an XM-L and reflector mod. The Ultrafire U20 keeps turning up near me as does the Trustfire S-A6 and the Mr.Lite LT3.

The bigger ones tend to be in the car or in a bag. Nothing bigger than a single 18650 light is likely to be on my person unless I'm dog spotting or doing something that might need a lot of light.

Interesting ,,, Top 3 Hu !

No1 = Nlight B3 http://budgetlightforum.cz.cc/node/1168 I swapped out the electronic clicky for a mechanical one , and now its a joy to use .

Maratac AAA / ITP AAA

Ultrafire A20 [ XM-L mod ]

I have the Nlight on a lanyard + Carbiner [ so I wont lose it ] , and I just love the fully regulated output ...

I might have to get the Nlight B2 for my Birthday .. [ its an excuse ]
