Post by sam the man.. »

Fellow Spydernuts,

Besides packing your Spydies, do you have a tactical flashlight stored on your utility belt? Well, if you do, what will it be? Here are my favourites :



pix 1 :

My favourite EDC combo - the Endura and UK 2-L.. Really AWESOME!



Pix 2 :

Surefire M-2 with MT LCC, Surefire 6-P with with Lum-Ti tanto, Surefire G-2 with Emerson commander OD and UK 2-L with Endura.

Samo, I own three little guys. I wouldn´t call them tactical <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>
1 Photon II, white
2 Arc Light AAA, white
3 Sapphire Light, blue

They usually go with:
1 Mil, plain
2 Calypso Jr Lt, plain
3 Mini Socom, tanto

PS I am planning to get me the Surefire M2. How good is it?

My spiffy new eternaLight Elite XRay has just begun accompanying me on a semi-regular basis. Don't know if it really qualifies as a 'tactical' light, but there is a letter posted on Technology Associates site <www.techass.com>, makers of the eternaLight, from a US Air Force North Atlantic pararescue crew that are using the standard version eternaLight XRay as part of their gear. In any case, a very cool little light. Also got an eternaLight Ergo3 now pulling duty in the car.

Of course, there's also your basic Photon II (white) on my keychain, but I'm entertaining replacing it with an Arc. Hmmm, I guess flashlights are sort of one my other weaknesses...

Those, along with either my Native or Calypso Jr., and I'm happy. Oh yeah, a L'man Micra always tags along too.

Well, I am waiting for the blue Photons I ordered yesterday, but on a daily basis I carry a MiniMaglite and my EDC's are a Mouse, a Calypso Jr. SE and, since last week, a Chinese Folder. I guess once I get the Photons I will need to start saving for the SureFire Centurion which caught my eye (plus all those other "needs" that I have, such as the SOG Sculptura, the Endura, another color of Photon, etc). <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Geez...
