This thread I’m finding interesting regardless of the giveaway just to see peoples short list. I’d say let it keep running at least till interest dies off.

lateotter · October 31, 2012, 2:04pm

AAA: Thrunite Ti (1xAAA)

AA: CQG S2, neutral, l-m-h, no memory (1xAA)

18650: Fenix TK35 (2x18650); UF-2100, 3 mode, with clip (1x18650)

CR123: Thrunite T20 (1x16340); BLF Mini (1x16340) - Currently en route and should arrive before the end of the year.

Other: HD2010 (1x26650); 50w/35w HID (1xbattery pack) - Do these count? Technically both are 18650 too.

Recently been looking for more quality/premium AA lights. I would definitely say the D25A counts. Most of my other AA lights either flicker on nimh (but oddly don’t with 14500) and/or have slow PWM. Didn’t bite on the PA40 deal and waited too long on the Quark X AA2 deal and they sold out.

Thanks for organizing the give away kreisler! Makes me happier just thinking about the possibility of winning.
