Agreed. We’re not looking for a mathematical determination of the best light. What we want are people’s subjective opinions of what they thought were the best zoom lights of the year.
Agreed, and its always good to be open to new suggestions and styles of zoomies
Who knows, maybe someone knows about a zoomie I might just like! :bigsmile:
Check out this review. It also includes links to many zoomies:

I pulled the trigger on a cofly mentioned in this thread earlier.
But I am still on the look out for another one! So please guys, keep them coming
I also bought the trustfire z8 as a pocket zoomie since it uses 14500 batteries!
I will be acquiring more zoomies, I hope to see what else is on the market! Still contemplating if i should get that marsfire….
So sad, the Z8 is very dim. It seems like the TopTom $7 zoomie I had was brighter than it!
This is probally my favourite Zoomie light currently in my Zoomie arsenal for all around use, but its not stock.
modded with an XM-L2 4C Neutral/white , the Qlite-Revision version Nanjg 105C driver with 4-modes and Moonlight mode, (no blinkies) with reduced number of 7135’s to increase run time, and also can run on either a 18650, 26650, or 3-AAA Eneloops.
@DenBarrettSAR
What’s the name of that torch?
Can you compare it against T20?
I think it’s one of the generic Ultrafire or noname ebay zoomies?
Search “26650 zoom” on ebay and I imagine you’ll find it.
It started out as an Ultrafire E7.
(Its simmilar to a Trustfire Z5, but shorter and wider body to fit 26650s or the 3-AAA carrier.
