Get a MF04 or GT, great bike lights, amirite

I have an S2+, and I love the body, but I can't speak to its performance. Mine is UV.

They get a lot of love though. See if you can find the range(throw) for them and the A6.

@timsandtoms best budget edc flashlight in your opinion?

S2+

But I don't own any that would count as budget.

So, not speaking from experience, I just like the S2+ and it's real reasonable.

OH! BLF 348. That's another good one, budget for the performance you get.

My EDC rotation is Emisar D4Ti, Acebeam UC15, and Olight S Mini Ti

I want to get a Lumintop Tool at some point, probably the Massdrop titanium one, but more just because I think it's pretty. They get a lot of love, but there are better performing lights I think.

There are a ton of solid options if you just want 130 lumens from 1xAAA.

Really depends on what you're willing to spend, what extra stuff you're willing to put up with, and how small you want it.

@Millwood i have a convoy s2 plus that i broke before bike season :)

Get tir lenses from leddna

Get it with 6 x 7135

@Julian this is best budget edc :)

Well I already have a nitecore tube

If you have a solid one, depends on budget and goals

Is there something specific you want a new one to do differently, and how much would you spend? Do you already have Eneloops, 10440s, 10180s, 14500s, 16340s, 18350s, or 18650s? How big is too big for an EDC?

where do u buy those cheapo casio type watches?

from casio via amazon

don't buy the knockoffs

Hmm, convoy s2 has better throw than s2+ according some redditor<:thenk:329322130804047872>

@Moad eBay or Amazon

oh

they're cheap and good enough not to warrant buying the chink alternatives

Oh, s2+ is 18350. Guess I'll just get the s2

because those usually have shittier LCDs

you mean 18650 <:thvnk:332928260004642827>

S2+ comes in either. And 18500 I think. You're just looking at the 18350 listing.

Oh

@timsandtoms explain to a retard pls

T is the brightness? So T6 would be the brightest one?

Color temp

LEDs get sorted into different bins based on what color they are and how they perform, the Emitting Color option is which bin you're picking. Couldn't tell you specifics, read the description or link me the listing. 7135 has to do with the circuity involved, and I haven't delved into driver design much yet. @Sapharanth mind explaining?

I think more let's it run brighter but less efficient?

Pottery

Right on, so you're just picking color temperature. Ever bought lightbulbs?

Lower is more yellow(warmer), higher is more blue(cooler). And cooler and warmer don't make sense because they get the numbers from if something was this temperature Kelvin, it would glow this color.

But thas how it goes. Around 4000-5000 is usually considered neutral, higher is cool, lower is warm. Generally speaking.
