Very nice buddy. :tu:

I've stuck to my Eagletac D25A for a while now.

Led Lenser F1R.
Its pretty much the only light I carry with me.
Its not perfect, but REALLY good. A bit on a heavy in its weight. Also no focus at all.
Good conversation piece, as people are always amazed by its brightness. I'm not much of a flashlight guy so I don't see myself changing in a long time. My 3rd Led Lenser this one and like it a lot.

I was like you until recently I got a very good flashlight on an impulse buy.

Now I can't see myself compromising when it comes to my light again. To easy to get something good for not a whole lot of money.

Not saying your Lenser is bad as I have never had one.

The Microstream has become one of these classics that, despite not being the cutting edge of torch technology, still does the job very well. :tu:

It really is an awesome light.  I haven't been without one for at least 6 years now.

I've been carrying my Convoy S2+ 16340 with the T4-7A very warm LED in my jacket pocket since I got it.



Got to love the warm LED. 8)

You're right, it'll take both 16340 and 18350.  I just have a couple of 16340 kicking around so I wasn't going to bother shelling out for some more cells when I've got some that work.  You'll be getting better run times though. :)

I didn't know that.

Could be handy since I have some 16340s for my Sunwayman V11R around here.

Also ordered the tube so I can use 18650 batteries.

Here is a link for the grey one.

It is actually the whole host but for 10 dollars I have no issues throwing away the parts I don't need.

They also have the part you can use to make your Convoy into a triple like mine. You know you want to.

Well I'm not a light nut so I can't be too technical but I do like it very much.  I find the mode spacing to very useful.  High is very bright and the lowest is quite dim (good thing).   The UI makes sense and works well for me.  I love the fact that it has a battery level indicator.  It runs off of a AA. I've always been partial to AA and AAA lights. It's relatively easy on the pocket.  It will tail stand.  And it looks pretty cool too  :D. It's a winner in my book.

Haha, I'm not too light tech either and I really appreciate your summery, thank you.   :cheers:

Sure thing.  It's worth mentioning there is no mode memory on this light.  I usually like it but you can turn the light in either high or low without having to cycle through so thats good enough for me.  Also I use Eneloops in mine.
