Probably better if I get addicted to SureFires than more expensive beasts. Maybe Cloud taking their sweet ass time getting their EPL to market will save me a few bucks in the long run, because if I get an EPL and it blows everything else out of the water, then I'd probably want a REIN for a rifle, and an MCH for my main working flash light, next thing I know I've got $2000 wrapped up in frickin flashlights.SureFires are reasonable by that standards.
Cloud's stuff is great, but I'd still rather have a Surefire. Clouds are bulky, proprietary and it seems like every two weeks they have a new version.
I had a rein micro, was as big as an SF 600 DF, and the pressure switch was massive. Despite being "micro", it took up just as much, or even more space than the owl.
I still have an owl. I wish it was programmed to be momentarily only. The only reason i keep it around is because it's pretty easy to set up on different guns.
