help find-Better than BLACK Shadow Terminator

What light would be better output, multi LED, great looks, and etc. as the BST? It would have to beat on price at about $85. I just don’t know enough and would like direction.

Without modding. I don't think it is possible.

I didn’t know, but it’s good to know. And, yes I mean w/o mod, just a off the shelf light. Thanks,

You have one?

A clone I bought modded, but think I am going to buy a real BLACK Shadow version. I like the light, the way it looks and the review by Johnny is very positive. I can’t see anything very much under$100 that has the power and quality of this.

I picked up one from Illumination supply last week. Installed 4 Sinkpads. Just incredibly bright. I love it!

Yep, but not planning a mod. Just sticking with good old reliable!

Ok, but get those emitters on Sinkpads or Noctigons ASAP. They will thank you for it in the long run.

Nowadays, I don't even run a flashlight without them.. Weird, I know.

Every time I have looked under a stock MCPCB I was shocked the light didn't burn out immediately after turning it on. Most of the time they have either not enough goop underneath or its sitting slightly above the shelf glued down.

Is that true of the BST we are talking about from illum? Johnny mac review didn’t mention that about this light,I don’t remember anyways. My main purpose is to go with it as is.
