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?
The SC33 would be great, but tail switch. Not as useful for me because of the way I hold the flashlight while riding. It uses the XHP70.3 HI emitter, so I might get that type of performance in a D1K with this emitter. For the SC29, this is a great option, it checks a lot of boxes. Thanks!
The “double click for turbo mode” is good for high traffic areas, quick warnings (a car starts pulling out in front of you), and bumpy patches.
I also shine it on the ground next to me sometimes when I’m being passed. It makes me more visible and people usually drive around the bright spot, but it’s not blinding anyone. Anyway… I like these things, my Sofrin has pretty much been 10/10.
