    3 modes of brightness. Brightest is good for 25 yards or so I guess. Good for everything I do like finding my way home and looking for a shot deer.

    I feel like the original Maxtoch was the best all rounder. No fancy shit, just one button. Handy red light and bright enough main light. Do any of the companies make one like this? I’ve still got one and it’ll be a sad day when that dies.
    I had one of the Nitecores but bugger me the amount of functions on it drove me mad.

    Yeah it takes a while to get the hang off the nitecore functions, like being able to get the function you want first time is a lottery until you spend a bit of time learning how.
