I own 3 Zebralights SC52w, SC600w (Mk 2's) and H600fw Mk 4 and am looking to buy my 4th, 2nd headlamp w more throw than my H600fw (frosted lens). Superior UI, quality, weight, size, looks and tint. Clear winner imo.
Thanks for a nice, comprehensive review with actual shots in the dark. I have two Zebralights (one with a flood lens and cooler tint, one with general-purpose one and warmer), and I love them both. They last pretty much forever and the high CRI light helps me see pretty well.
My zebralight has served me well for years and continues to do so. My only complaint is the elastic in the headband wearing out over years of sweat and temperature changes. But it still keeps the thing on my head, so I can't complain too much. Otherwise, it works as well as the day the box arrived on my doorstep, and I have used it every single day since, or just about.
do you recommend h600c with ncr18650ga battery with xtar ant mc1 plus cahrger? just asking because i'm very new at flashlight and battery technology.
@@leeonr I use the 18650's. Some think it's not quite as convenient, but I always have spare batteries charged and instead of just leaving it on the rack, when I need a fresh one, I just swap it out and get back to work. I use my light even in the day time so down time isn't really an option. I forget who makes my charger but it handles numerous types of batteries and in a pinch I can use the battery to charge my phone.
Thanks US! I like the Sofirm head light, and I have several headlights already. Thank you for this review!
Thanks for watching Greg! Can't go wrong with Sofirn! The SP40 has a good spot beam and is very reasonably priced!
The weight & mid & low modes of the zebralight are the features most attractive to me. Nice review!
Thanks for watching Matt! Glad you enjoyed the review!
I like the ArmyTek Wizard C2 Pro. I like the run times and the way light mounts to the head band. It seems a lot simpler than shoving a headlamp through rubber retaining rings.
Yeah attaching the ArmyTek to the headband mount is by far the smoothest and the loop helps to keep it secure!
I like Lumintop as the sweet spot. Price, size/weight, pattern, brightness. Not crazy for the bright overdone headband but I see the advantage in a work environment. Don't need the complicated software either. But all in all looks like the tool I need. I hope the offset from center point isn't noticeable on an L shape light. I wish there were more centered options in 18650. Very nicely done thanks.
Late but sp40 has been going strong for over a year. Mostly indoor use with home DIY and painting but it's good to go. I just switched it to 18350 to test run time.
You make the best comparo vids! Love 'em!
Expect deliver of ArmyTek headlamp
Great video as always, thank you for the this informative presentation
Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed it!
I absolutely love that warm tint on the zebralight, and even with the concentrated hotspot there's still plenty of flood
Hey HRGB! That's my favorite tint as well! Hoping to pick up some more warm lights for upcoming comparisons! Thanks for watching and enjoy the rest of your weekend!
I’m digging the HL3A here with the customizability of anduril ui as well as it’s form factor! Although the warmth of the zebraLight and it’d moonlight mode is appealing as well.
Yeah Anduril is very nice! The warmth is nice on the zebralight. I find myself gravitating more and more towards warmer lights.
I didn't have to see the rest of them once you showed the ArmyTek Wizard C2 Pro. It's got everything I want, the button placement, magnetic charger, and the optic. I just got the Sofirn IF22A after seeing your other video, and the C2 Pro would compliment it well.
Haha yeah all around the ArmyTek Wizard is hard to beat! Wish it had USB-C but my EDC is the ArmyTek Prime C1 so I'm starting to build a collection of charging cables. How are you liking the IF22A?
@@UrbanSurvivor The beam pattern is awesome. It throws great while still having some spill. I've even tried carrying it on me a few times and it's not that bad.
Thank you for putting up a comparison of good quality lights, it’s the best video I’ve found so far.
I’ll tell you that I purchased the ThruNite TH30 V2 after a ton of research, and I was extremely happy with it until it stopped working on me after not much use. It appears to be charging the battery but then won’t turn on. I have two of these lights so I swapped the battery and still nothing. So unfortunately the actual light and not the battery is no longer working. Sad part is I’ve only used it a about 6 or so times & never got wet. I’m just glad it died on me when I didn’t urgently need it. I’m now searching for a different manufacturer in order to replace it. Looks like I’m going to try the wizard this time. Thanks again for the great review, very helpful.
Did you contact Thrunite? They have an excellent warranty and replaced one of my lights (TC12-V2) after having it for a year without any questions. I did provide proof of purchase, a picture and an explanation of the troubleshooting steps that I had taken in my initial email to them so I am unsure if those would have been required. I also own the TN12 Pro & the TT20, my new favorite, and they are all great lights.
If you want reliability, go with Zebralight. After 40 years of collecting flashlights, they are my favorite based on reliability and light quality.
That was a great review! I personally lean towards the Lumintop HL3A because of its shorter stature. I camp and fish, having a small package (and water resistance is impotent over easy charging). Thanks again ;)
Thanks Mark! Glad you enjoyed the review!
Another great vid! Thanks man!
Awesome, glad you enjoyed it and thank you for binge watching my channel today that helps me a bunch! Let me know if you have any other ideas for comparisons you might like to see!
Armytek is a must !! Good lighting I like the battery on it !
Agreed! Thank you for watching and hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend Madison! BTW the estimated arrival of your i1R2 Pro is tomorrow! Let me know how you like it!
All good options. I'd go with the ArmyTek for durability and long runtime.
Agreed! ArmyTek is one of the best! Thanks for watching Reed.
Great review! Digging that Armytek!
Thanks Paul! Glad you enjoyed it! Let me know if you have any other ideas for comparison videos!
I first got into flashlights with a zebralight about 9 years ago and ever since then ive been hooked. I'll have to vote for the h600c zebralight. I edc carry h53nw all the time as its my favorite AA light. I still have a h52nw and an old h51cw. Very good video and i enjoy these kind of video comparisons. Thanks !
Yeah I definitely can see the appeal to Zebralight! Hows that light from 9 years ago holding up? Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it.
@@UrbanSurvivor its still holding up good the h51 with cre xpg cool white emitter works well.
I’ve had two Nitecore fail on me. One was a flashlight that I dropped at waist level onto concrete and it stopped working. And another was a headlamp that became intermittent and then eventually stopped working. I cleaned the contacts and tried several batteries including Nitecore’s own batteries.
Currently I own two Zebralights, one being about a year old and another is five years old. Have had absolutely zero issues with them. Mainly use Samsung batteries with them.
I have had good experiences with two Thrunite flashlights that I own so I recently purchased the headlamp. Seems to be ok but only time will tell. I do like that it’s USB-C rechargeable. I’m pretty sure that the headband will wear out quick. If so, I’ll swap it with a newer type spare Zebralight headband.
Zebralight. Warm beam, wide flood, simple UI, button on top. Great usable light and simple operation.
Yes Zebralight makes a great headlamp and there's so many different options for emitters on their website! Thanks for watching and enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Man those are all nice, but Zebralights are something else! Love the beam pattern, temp, and simplicity. Although I do like the idea of integrated charging, it's not really necessary IMO with a charging case/power bank like the PB2S and I think just adds another potential failure point. I do like the armytek but that proprietary charger would never see use. God, you can make a case for all these lights though. I see why everyone's collection is so massive.
Haha yeah I do like the tint on the Zebralight but the ArmyTek is built like a tank! My EDC is another ArmyTek so I have a few charging cables now but I do wish they used USB-C which would be much more convenient. Thanks for watching and hope you enjoy the rest of you weekend Evan!
I have Zebralight H53c (HiCRI, AA battery) I like everything about it, but the head band. Soft rubber which is bend towards forehead is painful to wear for more than 10 minutes. I tried to reroute it differently to have textile part behind the rubber, it works, but it's more loose with tendency to rotate up and down. My previous cheap Petzl is from hard plastic, but having textile band behind it and evenly spread pressure on forehead is much better.
Another great light comparison! Excellent job.
I would honestly go for the Sofirn because of the simplicity and type c charging. Fiddling around with a headlamp is silly business. I don't see any reason you'd want a complex interface. Thanks for the video!
Thanks bud! So glad you enjoyed it! Yeah USB-C charging is the way to go! Its shocking that it's not standard across all lights at this point.
@@UrbanSurvivor , I completely agree. Proprietary charging adds complexity to your life and zero benefits.
Can you make a video about a comparison Fenix headlamp models like the HM65R-T & the HM65R-DT?
And Nitecore NU43?
Would love the armytek for sure. If it had the lumintop headband design it’d be perfect with all the silicone strips for sweat
Yeah ArmyTek is a great brand. My first purchase from them was the Prime C1 and it's my current EDC light!
Good "quick overview/comparison" video. Have my eye on the Thrunite though now interested in the LIumitop. Please do more comparison videos of more "right angle head lights" as they come out or with lights you didn't include here...
Glad you enjoyed the review! Yeah its about time to revisit headlamps! I'll see what I can do.
I love my SP40 - used it every day for over 18 months and it's never let me down, very comfortable, simple and nicely spaced modes. Top tip - you can slip a spare battery in the loop of the headband at the back of your head!
Glad to hear its held up well for you over an extended period of time! And thanks for your pro tip on the extra battery storage!
Well that would make me nervous with an Lithium battery. I just bought a second sp40 as my battery holder :D
@@gordonbloe6959 in a silicone battery sleeve!
Wizard is definitely the one I'd go with. That runtime combined with very high output when you need it is unbeatable to me. The beaded optic is huge too, love the smooth beam pattern it makes.
Yea the smooth lightput really makes it the best. Inhad the wuben headlight before... but gave to my wife and got the armytek. Worth it.
zebralight also offers a diffuse lense for the same beam pattern. I don't have any experience with the ArmyTek, but from everything I've seen they look pretty good. I like their mounting system and the side switch position. I've been using zebralights for almost a decade and I really really love them.
Combined the Wizard Pro w/Tracer 2 vest whenever I go out night biking. Wizard ensures am seeing/being seen from front, vest makes sure I am seen from back/sides
I have the armytek in warm white and the warm color combined with the floody Optic makes it look almost day like in enclosed spaces.
@@squirts1I’ve been using zebraLights a long time as well, but it seems like they have either reduced their number of models or they’re going out of business. I hope they aren’t, they make a really nice light, even if they don’t have some of the newer stuff like magnetic charging.
New subscriber here. Fan of the Nitecore with the long run time and a good track record. I do K9 S&R and Detection. The reliability and rechargeable battery is what I like from the company. Happy holidays, be safe.
Hey AJ, thanks for the sub! Great to have you on board! Let me know if you have any other ideas for lights you'd like to see compared! Happy Holidays to you as well.
I liked the armytek wizard. Great video !
Its easy to make a case for the ArmyTek being the best all around! Thanks for watching Cade!
Great Torch review , full size WOWTAC A2S , small size OLIGHT H1 / H1R NOVA . ArmyTek mid mode is great.
yup, can't beat the wowtac a2s for the value. people always sleeping on the wowtac headlamp.
I will have to check out the WOWTAC A2S thanks for the heads up on that Alan!
Does ArmyTek use proprietary batteries (due to magnetic charging) or does it work with any standard ones?
Can you compared headlamps for helmet in industrial I need a recommendation...
Nitecore for me! I like all the distances of the light, the color of the light and the design of the headband.
Yeah Nitecore is fantastic! They have a huge line of headlamps which probably justifies a dedicated video at some point.
The thrunite seems like the best in my opinion mainly due to the lumen levels, working nights or being out late a bunch of lumens helps light up a room or just light up where ever I’m walking too. Awesome give away thanks!!
Yeah ThruNite is great! Especially for what they deliver at a reasonable price point! Thanks for watching I hope you have a good weekend and hopefully you can add this to your ThruNite collection ;)
@@UrbanSurvivor funny seeing you upload the video I was browsing around for a angle light to have on my chest for hands free work, cheers and have a good weekend and safe holidays!! (Hoping to win the draw still super stoked with the other thrunite)
Really considering an Armytek Wizard with the red light option. Can anyone comment on the weight of an 18650 headlamp and if it’s too heavy to wear for long periods? I really like lightweight headlamps and want the best of both worlds. I’m looking for comfort, a good low level red light, and decent runtime of at least two hours on a medium brightness white light.
I think I’d like the Armytek one the most. It seems to have the most options for functionality. Gave the video a like, thank you for the review. Happy holidays!
Thanks for watching Mike! Yeah I like that one and the Zebralight quite a bit. Torn between the 2.
Hey Mike, I picked you as the winner for the Giveaway! Please email me a screenshot inside your profile and your shipping info to urbanpreppergearguide@gmail.com !
@@UrbanSurvivor Thank you so much, we really appreciate it! I just e-mailed you what you wanted. Happy holidays!!!
Thumbs up from me. The Armytek has an awesome design I simply love it. Are those the manufacturer stated throwing distances? I am surprised you didn't include the Wowtac A2s in your video. It probably is the cheapest with the longest throw too out of them all. It's a lesser known brand but respectable since is made by Thrunite. Thank you for the video. Keep up the good work!
Yeah all of the lights I've seen from ArmyTek have been very impressive and can't wait to get my hands on some more! Yes, those are the manufacturer stated throws, outputs and runtimes. Yeah the Wowtac A2 would have been a great one to include! Looks like a great light and seems to be available for about $24 on Amazon!
This is my favorite flashlight review channel. Just like Sgt. Friday would say on the old TV detective show Dragnet, "just the facts Mam, just the facts".
The Thrunite TH30 V2 would be my choice of this lineup. I spend a lot of time in the mountains and I don't care to sneak up on, or to be snuck up on, by bears, moose, wolves, cougars or worse, humans, because I couldn't spot them first. The TH30 V2 has what it takes.
Thank you for your videos!
Thanks very much for the kind words Thomas! So glad you are enjoying the videos! I try to keep my videos free of fluff and to the point. Working on some more similar style comparisons but please share if you have any other ideas for lights you'd like to see compared!
My favorite is the armytek wizard c2 pro . What really I really like is that the 0.15 lumens run 4800 hours .and that it can throw very good and have a good flood on it's 2500 lumen mode . And the toughness on the armytek is very good.
Yeah as far as I know they make the longest runtime 18650 lights! Over 6 months is insane! Zebralight is pretty close behind though. But yeah, ArmyTeks build quality is very impressive!
I like the warmth of the Zebralight, There are other features on the other lights I like - charging ports, output, etc. But I think the warmth of the Zebralight has me won over.
Yeah the Zebralight is my favorite tint as well! Thanks for watching Caldren!
I have to agree as well. The warmth and that super low moonlight mode are amazing
Gotta go with the Wizard C2 Pro here. The high output and longer runtime, along with the beaded optic, check all the boxes for me. I also heard that their build quality is very high. I've been thinking about picking up a right angle light for a headlamp, and I think this might be it.
Beaded optics are great! They create such a smooth evenly diffused beam pattern. Skilhunt is another brand with a handful of bead surface lensed lights worth checking out too! But yes, the Wizard is built like a tank! Thanks for watching Arios!
The Wizard Pro C2 Nichia Magnet is also great option if you want high CRI over max output. It’s a tank and produces absolutely gorgeous light.
i have 2 zebralight 600's, great lights
How about sofirn HS40 with 18650 battery.
i love the thrunite light its pretty dope. awesome giveaway man
Yeah Thrunite is great! Im working on a tactical 18650 light comparison and they are supplying the BSS V4 which is another cool light they make. Thanks for watching and good luck!
These are some great headlamps 🙂 Unfortunately none of them met my requirements.
The PERFECT headlamp according to me would be one with a high CRI of 95, neutral white tint that are a little on the warmer side, pure diffused flood that covers my whole field of view, pretty much NO HOTSPOT whatsoever, at least 2500 lumens, USB type C charging port on the body itself, can use a non proprietary battery and does NOT have a magnet in the tailcap.
Gonna order myself Sofrin one, looks really affordable.
The Zebralight is my winner - I'm a sucker for warm lights. I wish it had a charging port though.
Warm lights are my favorite too! And totally agree with you about the charging port. Thanks for watching!
how about the olight perun 2?
Not sure if you can help or if you'll see my comment but I'm looking for a headlamp that is USB C or micro USB rechargeable and has a magnetic end, detachable from the headband and a cool white LED not Yellow. I know that's specific and probably doesn't exist I can't find one anyway
As usual you picked a very good variety of models to compare against. Personally I use a Olight inside, because of the auto dimming mostly. But outside I really like the beam, quality and brightness of the ThruNite TH30 V2. The ThrunNite for me is the best value of all these models (best bang for the buck). The Olight's (not included here) are expensive for what you get.
Which olight are you using? I reviewed the Perun 2 a few months ago and think its really great and its nice to see that auto dimming feature on some of their newer lights.
@@UrbanSurvivor I have both the Perun and the Perun 2. Love the lights HATE the cheap headbands that come with them and wear out in no time. The Perun is now riding on a Wowtac headband. I use the 18650 (Olight proprietary cell) version most when working inside. The Perun 2 is a fantastic headlamp but man that thing is heavy and I can not wear it for extended periods of time. Perhaps a better headband would make the Perun 2 easier on the noggin and hold up better. If Olight is going to continue to make quality Headlamps and put them on sub par crappy headbands then they should provide no less than 6 headbands with the lights, at least that way you would have a years worth headbands.
I used to like Olight because they are compact, I like the modes, and many of their flashlights have a magnetic tail cap.
I have stopped buying Olight flashlights because I have had 6 fail. They were all various types of single 18650 lights, and I used them for EDC and lighting as a mechanic working in the dark a lot.
I would recommend against any Olight 18650 flashlight.
I do have 4 Olight Double A flashlights that all work well.
I also own Soferin flashlights, and they are a good value.
My most reliable and best quality flashlights are all Zebralight.
@@jasonneugebauer5310 I agree with you on this. I do happen to have a Perun 2 on order at the moment as I need a more floody throw but my most used headlamp is the sofirn sp40. It is so cheap I can toss it around and not worry about anything. And it still keeps on ticking. The magnet base is the highlight of this headlamp.
What about the nitcore hc35?
I've used a zebralight headlamp in Afghanistan for about 7 years as a contractor. Really like their lights.
Glad to hear its holding up well for you! Yeah they are a bit more expensive than a lot of the other brands but they seem to last quite a long time.
Would have been nice if you could include Skilhunt H04 in this mix.
Agreed! A few others on r/flashlight pointed this out as well. I had that light about a year ago and traded it for another light to make a review. It is another excellent choice though.
Another great 👍🏽 comparison! The Army Tex Zebra the ☝️ one for me. Heavy duty it’s a winner for me and hope I do win??????
Thanks for watching Darnell! Good luck you have a good chance and if not, more opportunities coming soon!
I love zebralights. The quality all around is awesome!
Yeah they are well made, simple and the tint is fantastic!
@@UrbanSurvivor what was your favorite? I think it’d be interesting to have a conclusion/recommendation section where you state your favorite and why, then recommend 1 or 2 for different types of users? Just because since you have it hands-on you have the best idea of what they’re like in the real world!
@@UrbanSurvivor maybe you already did that and I missed it though lol
I think I would like the Armytek... I have been seeing a lot of good reviews on all there lights lately... I don’t know why I haven’t tried one yet... are they a new company?keep up the great work 👍
Yeah my EDC is the Prime C1! They have been around for a while but are relatively new to me as well. These lights have some of the best build quality I've ever seen. Definetly going to be including more in my future comparisons.
Believe it or not the energizer 1000 lumen 18650/CR hybrid headlamp is my favorite at 23 bucks.
Very nice
I have carried my Zebralight M I’ve 600 frosted ?? in my pocket everyday for the past 5 years. I put it on the headband when hands free is needed. I got my wife a nitecore and it completely died after about 4 battery charging cycles, so don’t get nitecore. My Zebralight out shines her newer Olight Perun 2 also and is half the size. Olights’ proprietary batteries and chargers is an annoyance also.
would have been nice if you could include sofirn hs40, hs20 and wurkkos hd15
Agreed, a few other people mentioned including the Skilhunt H04 as well. Maybe I will revisit the topic next year and hopefully include some of those.
@@UrbanSurvivor thank you
It turns out that how long an 18650 battery lasts depends on where it was made, not on the value they printed on the side. ProjectFarm tested a bunch of these (ua-cam.com/video/qMZuHMlRw_0/v-deo.html) using very good methodology and found that the ones made in China were significantly over-rated. There was one that said 9,999 mAh! It was crap-o-la, lasting 1200 mAh. None of the 18650's made in China lasted over 13% of their rating . The best were made in Japan (Sony, Panasonic) and Korea (LG, Samsung). If you are going to depend on your headlight, make sure you use an 18650 that you can trust.
IMO....As owner of 2 Nitecore lights + 2 spares, their 18650s/3400mAh provide me w/easiest charging options, longest run-times & highest mAh for what I need. Even living in Hawaii, w/some overall S&H restrictions, longest have waited was
Orbtronic. They're legit.
Are there any 18650 headlamps that have a red Led?
Armytek C2 WR is what you are looking for
I would go for the Armytek Wizard C2 pro. A really low moonlight mode is so handy. Other important features for me are a magnetic tailcap, ability to charge on-board if need, and the quick attach headband sounds handy.
6 + months runtime is on another level! Easy to make a case for this being the best all around light. Thanks for watching Dustin!
I like Thrunite because of its output.
Yeah Thrunite definitely is the best for high output! Great price too!
Nite core hc60 good flood , it’s comfy and adjustable
Yeah Nitecore makes some great headlamps. Thanks for watching!
Lumintop HL3A - for the win, thanks to Anduril UI 😏
Definitely has the best UI of the bunch! Thanks for watching Piotr!
I'm not entering the contest, I just wanted to comment to say that I can't wait until you do a side-by-side batsignal review. Which options Jim Gordon prefers, the handle switch or a bluetooth remote. Straight winged bat or classical curved bat symbol. XD
Lol that would be great! I'm acquiring some LEP lights for a comparison so we are starting to enter batsignal territory with the intensity. If you know of anyone who makes batsignal lights, let me know though!
@@UrbanSurvivor
ua-cam.com/video/Y4Z0QYYXNDA/v-deo.html It's a 100,000 lumen light with a pringle can and bat symbol inside it. I can see one scaring the crap out of their meth-producing neighbors with this.
Fenix?
I really like the thrunite headlamp because of the high output, the size, and the headband fit. Also the high output is necessary for what I use headlamps for.
Hey Daniel! Yes, ThruNite makes great products! I've probably tested out over a dozen products from them and they are one of the best for high output, well built lights for a reasonable price! What do you typically use headlamps for?
@@UrbanSurvivor I haven't ever had a decent headlamp. Usually break them or drop them. Keep buying the brightest energizer ones from Walmart lol. I am a mechanic and they see a lot of wear and tear. I have a weird obsession with EDC products lol.
I like the army Tec.
You can easily make a case for that being the best all around! Thanks for watching Timbo!
My zebra lights were so unreliable i threw them in the trash,i now use armyteks,the most reliable lights i have ever used under the extremes.
I find that hard to believe. First of all it´s "Zebralight" Second, they have a very long and proven history of quality and reliability. Third, I doubt SEVERAL of them failed you. Fourth, no real Zebralight owner will throw a Zebralight in the trash.
@@Hepta.Asteras If it does not work i throw it in the trash,i dont care what light or object it is i do not have the room to store shit that dont work or last.
@@jactilm8687 yeah, I know, my Porsche was not working so I threw it in the trash...
I have six Zebras now, all flawless so far. I read a story on Reddit where a guy dropped his 32 stories down an elevator shaft (elevator technician) and despite the head being bent in a bit it still functioned 100%
Potted electrics for the win.
Sorry the OP had a failure - I'd have sent it in to Zebralight for repair/replacement.
@Dormiens Vigila Well to be fair one should throw all Porsches in the trash right along with Mercedes Benz, BMW, Land Rover, and so many other expensive brands built like shit and designed to fail and only be serviceable by dealers at ridiculous prices. I have no opinion on the Zebralight's quality though
Lumintop for Anduril
Lumintop for the UI hands down! Thanks for watching Jacob!
Overall, the wizard is best, absolute tanks. Tint on zebralight is best. Tough decision.
Haha yeah my thoughts exactly! Thanks for watching!
I like the armytek with its big battery-longer running time along with 14 modes and wide flood
Yeah it's easy to make a case for the ArmyTek being best overall! Thank you for watching and hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Zebralight = Porsche.
Wurkkos hd15)
The one thing I like about the ArmyTech, they are built like tanks! There market is military. I like something I don’t have to baby.
The build quality is very impressive! My current EDC is the Prime C1 and I absolutely love it. Thanks for watching and enjoy the rest of your weekend!
for people who wear hardhats and need a headlamp daily, best option is zebralight. light, small, powerful, 18650, built like a tank. Rechageable ones suck, ive tried all the good ones. have one thats over 10yrs old used in boilers and vessels, abused more than most. I dont know what they coat these with but its strong AF (older olive green ones)
Torn between zebralight and armytek.myself.
No magnetic tail on a right angle light is an instant no go. For me it's a no-go on any light I have to have it but specially on a 90° light
