Flashlight recommendation

Another source for known authentic battery cells worth noting is:

The light I've carried for years now for long throw purposes is Eagtac S200C2. It's got a pretty throwy beam off the shelf, but I swapped its LED emitter with an XP-L HI (high intensity), an LED optimized for throw and which is included in the D1S. Yep, I've used it for spotting things on a 90' grid from the stage floor!

My S200C2 is probably not quite as throwy as the D1S which has a slightly larger diameter reflector, though close. I've been waiting for Emisar to come out with a 21700 lithium ion cell based thrower before I upgrade.

And yes, my light is a bit big for what a lot of people would be willing to carry continually. I admit that! I think it's the biggest diameter light I'd actually carry with me continually.
