...that is no bigger than a 2x18650 standard light with decent-sized reflector. Can be 1 or 2 18650, but it needs to be a monster thrower with a super-tight hotspot.
I showed him the Super Tactics at work tonight, and he loves it, but it's not bright enough.
So go crazy, totally crazy, on suggestions. My friend at work is not satisfied with the throw of C8s. He needs to be able to carry this light on his person, just not something Mag-Lite huge.
I was thinking X8, but my set hasn't arrived yet. Also, we'll consider SST-50 lights.
*** And, we are staying in the budget realm, so no TK70 recommendations--and that's too big anyway! :p
STL-V6 is a excellent thrower, probably the best for the price. If you need something smaller - Trustfire X9 is nice, not as small as other 1x18650 lights but still smaller than 2x18650 ones..
