WTB HDS or Novatac light

Hi!

I’d like to know what is the fuss about these HDS lights. Since they are pretty expensive, I’m reluctant to buy one new, so, looking for a used one!

Any model with a sufficient low would be nice, with a neutral/warm tint even nicer.

I live in Europe.

I think your best bet is to watch the CPF marketplace - HDS is usually on the pricey side - with the hds 200 going for around $200

novatacs usually pop up and go for anywhere between $75 and 175 depending on the model

Thanks for the piece of advice :wink:
Unfortunately I don’t have any post on CPFMP, so I don’t have a chance to react quickly. Now I have to post three time on CPFMP :smiley:

BTW, do you have any HDS? If yes, do you think they are worth it?

i have never owned either.

all the hds owners rave about them - they seem to be extremely robust and can take a beating in terms of everyday use and still maintain reliability…
both nova tac and hds seem to have a cult following like surefire it seems

to me they seem too expensive and not bright enough - but that is just me personally

i have edc lights that size and price that i never carry (titanium) because im worried about losing them or scratching etc

i usually carry $20 convoys LOL.

Yeah, that’s the thing…so much features, looks very robust, but so few lumens compared to the price… argh, I want to know why so much love for them!
