Pressure switch is NOT compatible with any of the single CR123 lights posted above.


Will will work with the RC-M4 http://www.shiningbeam.com/servlet/t...h-M4-II/Detail

And the RC-G2 http://www.shiningbeam.com/servlet/t...-dsh-G2/Detail



Of those I would pick the M4. Seems like a nice rifle light.

I was looking at that for a car light, but I think the next will me the M4 with pressure switch. The shotgun needs a new light.

Thanks for the info on the pressure switch compatibility!
(Great. Now I have ANOTHER one I want! )


Here's what I narrowed it down to...

For the AR15:
Romisen RC-M4 II Q5 2-Mode Tactical LED Flashlight
SKU#1111 $23.75
Can add pressure switch if needed.
Would PREFER one with only one brightness mode, but don't see one in this model.

I may pick up the one mentioned above since it's clearanced and ALSO accepts the pressure switch.
Romisen RC-G2 Cree Q5 Flashlight "Black" (1xAA)
SKU# 1002 $15.95


**NEW** Remote Pressure Switch for Romisen RC-M4 LED Flashlights "Black"

SKU# 1113 $6.75



And for general use:
Romisen RC-N3 CREE Q5 LED Flashlight "Black"
SKU# 1009 $23.95
Dual battery ability is nice feature.

Note that this guy isn't raping anyone on shipping.
That's a refreshing change of pace from the typical online store. ESPECIALLY considering the low cost of the items.

The shipping for my order(three lights and a pressure switch)is $2.75

I'm after the;

ITP A03 EOS (Upgrade) black 3 mode 80 lumen single AAA light the size of my maglite solitare? OH HELL YES. This POFS solitare puts out 2 lumen... maybe. So this is definitely getting bought.

Next up is a replacement rifle light. I don't want a pressure switch. I'm not interested in weird batteries, but the option to use them is fine.

So;

This Romisen RC-N3 CREE Q5 210 lumen (black)

Not thrilled about the 6.13" OAL (my current light is 4.7" OAL but much thicker)

Same light 2 modes? No brightness listed... or how it changes modes. (If it's click on, soft push mode change that would be acceptable.)

Romisen RC-G2 CREE Q5

Extra flood inside is great. My light floods wide which makes navigating and keeping peripheral vision indoors possible... but still maintains a hot core and decent throw outdoors. I think the light above is the most comparable to what I have. In size, output, and probably beam pattern. Just with some added oomph and all on a single AA!

6.18 is with the AA adapter. CR123 mode is about 3.24 (by my measurements)

Yes, I'm pretty sure that's the difference. The "II" in the name matches the description of "two light modes".

Trying to compare the models is maddening on that site, but I guess the savings makes it bearable to some extent.



ETA:
The only thing that concerns me about the "M4" that I'm getting for the rifle is mounting it.
I hope I can find some sort of mount that will work with it.
