    You can run your Surefire G2X also on a single rechargable 16650. They fit and work great! The Nextorch E51C is high - medium - low and maybe also an option. Always starts on high.

    Glad to see an Elzetta product! I have a blue Elzetta Bones model. Single output high only and it's the only model they make that uses 18650 batteries. It has a very odd square hotspot from the shape of the led. 🔦

    Really enjoy your reviews. You see the potential in all of them. You're to blame for my collection of Weltools and I need to thank you. Also enjoy my Ntiecore P23i. It's great having a variety to rotate your carry options. I think I'm set for flashlights for a while. God a couple more nice knives lately and enjoy them too.

    Awesome video, and I truly love all your videos. Can you list all the potted lite heads that Weltool makes? I know you have most of them and please include any LEP ones if they have any. Im on the fence for a LEP and LED high thrower from them.
    Thanks

    An FYI about CR123a batteries. All US made CR123a batteries are made by panasonic. Streamlight, Surefire, Panasonic, Battery station, etc branded ones are all the same batteries with a different wrapper.

      and thats why you should buy surefire ones because they look cooler and help support an amazing company over its predatory competitors

    You can use a keeppower 16650 with the surefire been using them for years

      That is so weird. I tried that with one of my surefire lights and it destroyed the electronics and it stopped working

    • @Gieszkanne
      @Gieszkanne Před 8 měsíci +2

      @@flashlightcrazy That is impossible. The 16650 has 3,7V while two CR123 have 6V. I also have used a 16650 on an older 320 lumen G2X and a newer 600 l version. Also you can read it in many comments and forums.

    Great info on the comparisons but I believe your measurements are off. Weltool for example: Size (±0.5mm): (head diameter) 31mm, (body diameter) 24mm, (length) 131.5mm

    When I worked in LEO (up to a few years ago) I preferred the Surefire G2x with 16650s and the Streamlight Polytac 18650 -
    For a few reasons - I preferred the grip of the poly-material and the grip pattern. I would not cry if I lost one or if it ended up in a bio bag.
    A lot of aftermarket support for both lights because they are so old and kind of a tried and true LEO/Security/EMS light.
    Nowadays though I would go for the Weltool though but if I was still in LEO I would go for the Surefire still.

      Even before Elzetta, Malkoff already makin' LED modules for Maglites, then next P60 LED modules for Surefires, then Elzetta adapted his M60 modules, after that Malkoff already made his own line of lights.

    Some lights are just too expensive...You're not getting any more reliability by paying $200 more over some other low priced options... Although I'd like to see a review on the Modlite Hog
