I really like the first one.

The D5, however, was pummeled by the ugly stick. It looks like it was designed by a bunch of people who hate each other.....

OH boy you are right about that.

I'm sure, the first light's dimensions are false.

The Prairie Fire D9 is exactly the same what I got from ebay, but much cheaper.

There are so many variants of XML lights out there now my heads spins in trying to decide which is a good one. Is it simply a matter now of cosmetics? They're all the same, just pick the one you like the look of the most?? So confusing....

Hey look at the $25 X9!

It has appeared a new PrairieFire, the D15 model, nice looking one, also the color

Yes, deep smooth reflector, should throw very well. And only 16.90$

I think that the diameter of the reflector attributes much more to the throwing capabilities of a light rather than the depth.

This diameter is 45mm. For a dedicated thrower you’ll wanna be looking at upwards of 55mm (The bigger the better, take a look at the 13 inch [330mm] HID, it has 3.5million lux).

I just looked at the dimensions of the prairie fire: Dimensions: 9.76 in x 2.56 in x 2.56 in (24.8 cm x 6.5 cm x 6.5 cm)
which is the first one.

The STL V2/6 mentioned on DX appears to have a smaller head: Dimensions: 9.45 in x 2.40 in x 2.40 in (24.0 cm x 6.1 cm x 6.1 cm)
Now I just want to know which one is driven harder, and is the prairiefire reflector really bigger? or is the bezel just thicker than the STL V2/6?

Looks like a copy of the TrustFire X6 and cousin to the UF X6S , just different labeling.
