25 all the way Lighter, double the candela, the single stage with the half lockout makes it actual tactical use ready. And they fixed the proxy problems. Oh and $15 cheaper to boot
The new version isn't really that much better. The light is more focused, resulting in a brighter spot and higher candela on paper, but not brighter overall. The lack of a screen makes the lamp more robust, but the operation and battery display are worse. The new buttons make operation a little more complicated. Where I used to press once before, I now have to press 2 buttons. 1 step forward but 2 steps back.
Does the EDC 25 have the same step down sensor the EDC 27 had? I think that's a terrible function it causes my light to step down in foggy and dusty environments too.

Just got my 25 and it is phenomenal
27 display is killer.

Only on startup in case something blocking. They fixed it for sure
How much
27 is way cooler with the LCD readout. I use mine for firefly mode. Those light arrays look like a cost saving downgrade.
25 is a fail
What makes it a fail?
Why?
