How about HDS?
HDS lights are supposedly very conservatively driven. Like only 200 lumens or so. But they use a LOT of aluminum. This makes them quite durable. In testing HDS, supposedly the developer threw the light down onto concrete from 30 feet up. Repeatedly. Did it non-stop for something like an hour. It got banged up but still worked fine.
Durability and reliability is the main selling point of HDS, but it isn’t cheap. Expect a typical HDS light to cost a few hundred dollars. And they’re not small. A 1xCR123 HDS is bigger than a 1x18650 Zebralight SC62.
Personally, I like UranusBuilt flashlights.
I'd that that they're almost the best out there.
Yeah, they're a solid number two. :evil:

You know, thats a really expensive flashlight and it doesn’t actually has cooling fins. Armytek is beefy too but I don’t really dig the design. I need something with lots of cooling fins but not of the trustfire types.

No, but I really wish I did. :)

Any of his lights are simple and nearly indestructible.
Man, thats another expensive brand name!
The stainless convoy is built like a tank, not very good at cooling, but very sturdy
Yeah I’ve seen those but I want something LARGE! hahaha IDK why but I juz like those big lights built like a tank :party:

Sinners lights are pretty much over-built. But they border on “custom pricing” by the time you outfit it with an engine.
The Copper model is very heavy for it’s size. Heat sinking from end-to-end.
He (Sinner) has mentioned making a P60 model.
Be interesting if that has the same stout construction. Really interesting if in Cu.

These are kinda beefy for ButtFire lights.
UranusFire c818
UranusFire X9
Not bad but I’m really doubting their quality
