budget dedicated thrower

I have a few led flashlights now and while i havent quite got the modding bug yet as i have absolutely no electronics experience ( although i am concidering dedoming soon) i would like to get a dedicated thrower in the budget range. I have seen some tn31 at a promotional price of $160 which sounds great, tk 70 and 75 our out at present and while i would love a btu shocker i just think it is too heavy for regular use. I already have a hd2010 and small sun yz t08 that i actually use regularily and are both great lights, i am tossing up between a modified fandyfire stl-v6 or a k40 next . I cant find any beamshots comparison between the two but would consider others.needs to be in the $100 to $120 range. I already have the standard sky ray stl-v2 version which is great but still a bit long in the plunger style. Any suggestions would be great or beam comparisons of the suggested lights to help :slight_smile:

Solarforce S1100 is $119. (in USD, don't know which you were using for your budget)

Thanks comfychair noticed the s1100, but from what i have seen it doesnt throw like the 2 mentioned although i like the looks and is in the price range with the ozzie dollar as it is at the moment :slight_smile:

This will blow away a stl-v6

This is a thrower stock and with a simple mod it’s unreal. If you do the math you will see that it’s about reflector size and brightness of the led for it’s size. If you remove the LED and put in it’s place a de-domed XM-L2 it will blow away just about everything out there. You also have to take a small round file to the reflector and make it a little larger so all the light gets in the reflector for a perfect focus. This is an easy to do mod with no driver swap needed. Two wires to solder and that is it for electronics. The de-dome in gasoline seems to work every time. At lease I haven’t had it fail me yet.

I use mine with only two 18650’s and it’s just as bright as with three.
