Has anybody else got one of these? The continuously variable output is nice.

Did you mean a D10?

If so I very nearly bought one, but plumped for the LD10 instead (which I then sold ::))

I think he means the Defender Infinity.  I don't have one but I want to get one.

It looks really good for the money. The Romisen G2 is close to that output at 120 lumens & only 23 bucks shipped. Nitecore does make good flashlights though.

I have one. The variable output on the secondary mode is what attracted me to this light. It is on EDC rotation with my Jetbeam Jet 1 Pro.

I have one and like it as much as when I bought it.

This light has retained it's resale value and street price very well...better than most I'd say.

Good choice :tu:

I'm glad there's some love for the DI then  :tu: I'm probably easily impressed as I went straight from Maglites and am therefore not the best judge.

I'm confused  ??? So, lets say you take it out of your pocket, and you turn it on, would it be on Max or on the User Setting?

It has memory mode so it will remember the last brightness setting you chose.

Yep, it's on your user setting when you press the clicky switch, but just twist the bezel for full.

I got the limited edition nickel plated NDI when they came out. As my flashlight tastes have changed over the years I have come not to like the head twisting then tailcap clicking UI. It still is a nice light however.

Cheers mate. I'm thinking about getting one of these. The dilemma is choosing this or the Fenix LD10. Currently favouring the Nitecore, but still open to suggestions :)
