For stock light, nothing beats the Jacob A60 or the courui D01

sounds like the OP wants a laser?
LOL, specification 100% fulfilled
I was really liking the small sun and almost bought it last night. The Courui looks similar in stats but holds an extra battery which is a nice bonus. I like the button on the side and not on the bottom too. If the light performance is the same I think that’s the route I will go.
Thank you everyone for your help!
In true BudgetFlashlight form, you should buy both LOL
This forum is going to get me in trouble with the wife lol
I already bought a DQG Tiny Triple XP-G2 V2
I have already thought about getting both too. So much for having enough batteries! Lol
Throw in a A60 for the heck of it, only $15. Then just add a Y3 as it’s only $25. BUDGET light forums……yeah right. No such thing as a budget here!
Look for a cheap zy-t13 and a used Crelant collimator head. With some searching you should get close to $40. Never tested it stock, but by just changing out the LED to a dedomed XRE I got over 200kcd. I am sure with some driver tweaks and a newer gen LED dedomed you can get more out of that setup too
The courui is one number bigger and has a bigger reflector than the t08,zyt13 or yezl. Also the stock throw is higher if I remember right(about 70kcd)

Stock BigCourui D01 easily lights up grain silo 410 Yds. away. Sorry no pic, just the Google map.
for under 40 bucks, as mentioned above a SmallSun ZY-T08, Yezl Y3, Courui D01, or if you can find one on Ebay or from another member here, a Defiant SuperThrower (DST), or Jacobs A60.
Uniquefire UF 1405 with a dedomed XP-G2 on Noctigon and a LD-4B driver will give you almost 300,000 candela without any other mods, with good runtime as a nice side benefit. Not bad for a $45 parts list.
