Recommend me a tactical type flashlight

Dioda · 2018-03-19T12:05:26.000Z

I am considering the Klarus XT series. However these are known for rather noticeable PWM on lower modes

X31 · 2018-03-19T12:30:22.000Z

I only tried one that could fulfill your criteria : Olight M2T (or M2R if you want onboard charging)

Wow Tac A1S checks a lot of those boxes.

Checkout Pflexpro, or if those are too expensive look into getting a Convoy and swapping out the switch with a forward clicky.

I’m not sure how the UI & dual switches work, (no reviews yet I can see) but I’ve inquired about it:

KD (kaidomain): Deals and new products thread BudgetLightForum Deal Alerts

Questions for BanL about Ultratac: 1. Will KD be stocking the Ultratac S20 ? 2. Can we access the user manual for UltraTac T15, I’d like to know exactly how the dual switch UI works.

mortuus · 2018-03-21T10:11:24.000Z

Olight M2R ?

mrheosuper · 2018-03-21T11:15:39.000Z

Jetbeam jet-iim, its tailswitch is unique, and useful
It’s also very cheap( about 35$ with coupon), but build quality higher than cheap china lights

.

Here’s some more info on the UI:
It does appear the tail switch is a tactical forward (momentary) switch.

I’m trying to find out about what brightness level it enters first upon turn on, and if there’s memory.

Dioda · 2018-03-21T16:51:25.000Z

Interesting find these UltraTacs… just wish they had bigger reflector.

Dioda · 2018-03-21T16:52:10.000Z

Im throwing in to the possible selection the Skilhunt S3 Pro, anyone has it?

bucky · 2018-03-21T23:41:14.000Z

Anything Olight , also i just picked up a thorfire TG06S it’s not 10000 lumens but starts on turbo and has quick access to strobe

Newlumen · 2018-03-22T00:45:13.000Z

Its depend how much do you want to spend… acebeam L16 is one example.

OK so you’re after a mid size light, with around a 40 mm head size? (Similar size of a C8)

Unfortunately there aren’t many XHP35 tactical lights within the budget price range.
Exactly what is your budget? (Highest price)

.
I also wish for a budget priced, mid-size XHP35 dual-switch light with a “Direct to high every time” tail switch function like the Acebeam L16 / L30.
But right now that is just wishful thinking because I don’t think it exists.

If I got the L16 I’d want to swap out the CW LED for a NW.

.

“At the moment Im looking at Nitecore P16, Jetbeam IIM PRO or Lumintop T15S as budget options”

Did you mean the Jetbeam IIIM Pro? And Lumintop TD15S ?

https://www.gearbest.com/led-flashlights/pp_1627577.html
https://www.gearbest.com/led-flashlights/pp_597776.html

.
Either the Lumintop TD15S or Nitecore P16 look like a good choice for the price.

Is there anything about those specifically that didn’t work for you? Or just looking for some other ideas?

Check out the Nitecore TM03 the only downside for me is that it need a propriety battery which it comes with

Good find, that one does seem to be a decent XHP35 tactical light.
1-click for ON, and I think it may even start in high mode (not sure) but it does have quick to access turbo from any mode (long press).

Thanks for posting this, for me personally it may be something to consider as well. Just wish it had some knurling on it. And a NW option.

Hello, My name is Eryk. I am writing reviews in Polish. Reviews I translate – google translator. Link to original: http://www.torch.pl/forum/index.php/topic,63048.0.html !https://s19.postimg.cc/n7pwe97b7/image.jpg A few days ago I published a review of the Wuben I333 flashlight, today the T103. Should you be interested in the T103? I invite you to the test. The Wuben T103 is available in Banggood, for example. The merchant has provided a discount code: WUBEN T103 XHP35-E4 1280Lumens wiede…

We’re not exactly sure what the OP’s max budget is, but there was a code available for this that lowered the price by $25.00, but it’s no longer working, do some digging might be able to find a deal somewhere, or even request one from one of the aff-linkers here…

This one in Gold is a XM-L2 in WW for $68 and some change. Free shipping.

Right, preferably something with medium sized (35mm - 45mm) reflector. Current budget is around 50 USD, possibly more with some good coupons. The user interface of L16 would be great - dedicated turbo button allowing also for momentary action. But L16 is out of my budget and the tint seems to be ultra cold.

Yeah I want the same and both the same reasons about the L16.
