Flashlight for EUC riding (lemmy.ca)

I'm looking for a new light for EUC riding. I currently have a SP36 which I find too big and heavy and also a thrunite TC15 that lacks throw and uses a micro USB that I dislike. A buddy of mine uses a Fenix TK16 v2 and it seems to be a good balance of flood and throw, but I dislike the buttons. I really like the features of my SP36 and the single button.

I need good flood and medium throw in order to see further ahead. I looked at hank lights and I'm quite interrested, but I'm new to all this. Through my research, I think a D1K might be a good format. I saw a few people riding EUC that said the D4Sv2 with XPL-HI is best, but this emitter isn't offered anymore.

What do you suggest?

Zebralight W51

You probably mean H51, or H51w. The H53 series is the current equivalent.

I think OP wants something with a little more power. Zebralight has a suitable offering in the SC700d HI. It is, by all accounts excellent, and it is priced accordingly.

Shit, you're right, H51w.

That said, yeah Zebralights in general are great. Same for Fenix!
