NF-X8626 Flood-to-Throw Zooming CREE Q3 WC 3-Mode 160-Lumen LED Flashlight w/ Strap (1xAA / 1x14500)

Pros: Easy to switch from flood to throw.
Side switch instead of tail clicky works great.
Solid body construction with thick walls and lots of mass.
Innovative internal zooming mechanism

Cons: Poor heatsinking. Not really upgradable due to poor heat management.
Not the brightest but not the worse either.
Flood beam is narrower than most other flood-to-throw lights I've tried.

Other: If you have no plans to upgrade the internals then this is a great light that seperates itself from the rest of the zooming torches with it's side switch and internal mechanism. A nice little light at a really nice price.

Pros: An easy way to turn. Zoom. It can be put upright to light up. He did not skate on the horizontal axis. Operates on AA batteries. Small size and light weight.

Cons: No memory. Not very bright LED. Poor thermal contact. Not so bright shines on AA batteries. No clips belt.

Other: Cheap flashlight for you. Small size and weight to carry at all times. Operates on AA batteries and a battery of 14 450.
