ET D25aaa can be had in 219b and is a little smaller than an LD01 too.The clip sucks really but there us a decent magnet and a more usable range of levels to me too.(Image removed from quote.)The Preon are also 219 and the Beta QR are too.You can get Eigers in 219 and I have a few of the various Thrunites in NW and am not sure if they are actual Nichia or not but they are really nice compared to any Angry Blue that I know of for sure!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Wow, these are some great suggestions! I assumed I’d be basically looking for a unicorn, but it seems like there are several options.I’m off to do some research!
Flashlight addiction is a disease. Some of us need help.Please...help.
Not sure if you have ever bought anything from drop, but they have the Lumintop AAA with a Nichia 219c. Has an e switch with 3 modes. Maximum of 110 lumens. I have a copper with the now discontinued 219b. One of my most carried lights, because of how warm it is. Edit: Sorry, the Nichia has a maximum of 85 lumens.
https://countycomm.com/collections/aaa-flashlights/products/aluminium-anodized-aaa-flashlight-by-maratac-rev-3This one features a Nichia 219. 92 CRI. 4000k.
The Prometheus Beta QR is what I was going to mention. With a Nichia 219c in 4000k and modes of 1/15/90 Lumens, seems like it would fit the bill. If you want a pocket clip, that has to be purchased separately.As ezdog mentions the EagleTac D25aaa is really close too, except the tint more warm than desired at 4500.
All are excellent suggestions. Just depends on your everyday needs and what you are willing to spend.
This looks pretty interesting. And the price seems decent as well. I had a lumintop tool aaa in aluminum briefly, but it had a more pronounced rubber booted tail switch. Is this switch electronic? Or just a metal cover?
single AAA or 2? this is a good deal from BLF, use coupon code 7DJ3B9AA brings light to about half pricehttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07XSNCJQZ/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Yes. The switch is electronic, not just a cover. Great light in my experience.
I got you Spud...get an FW3A next.
I also came across another lumintop, the IPY07 which seems interesting as well.
I have the 2 AAA version. It’s a nice light, but the switch sticks out to far. It activates in my pocket too easily.
Welllll...already got a deal worked out to get one. lol
That’s good to know, thanks for that. I’ll take it off the list as that would drive me nuts.
Yeah, it’s pretty annoying when a coworker asks what’s glowing in your pocket.
Nice. Which emitter?
Thanks, so two votes for the beta and the eagtac. If the mode sequence of the eagtac is H-M-L, then that would take it off the list for me. Any experience with operating the beta qr? Is it too smooth and therefore slippery?
I don't know. sos24 made me an offer on one and I jumped on it. I just keep hearing so many good things about the FW3A.
The EagleTac mode sequence is L-M-H-L-M-H-(strobe sequence)I do not have experience with the Beta to say how slippery it feels.
