yes, i mean clips for spectacles, like so:

TINI cannot do large area illumination. Plus having several 18650 batteries means i can swap the batteries of my torchlight & headlamp in case anything happen. Also LR50 works as charger & only need to steal power from my mates

that was one of my primary concerns before i decided to pull the trigger. the s2r ii was a very very close contender but it also uses customised batteries. so on that note, they both tied. klarus loss out on runtime since s2r ii had 3200 mah batteries compared to klarus' measly 2600 mah batteries (they really should have provided for a 3600mah option) and is that wee bit longer with the clicky switch... but its also that clicky switch that won me over. the klarus also looks sleek with its mild knurling compared to the the s2r ii's chunky knurling, but i suppose that's a personal preference (admittedly, the grip isn't great when paired with the clicky switch... but it's enough).

Agreed on both torchlight are that close.

Klarus paddle switch is really unique!

And yeah, Klarus should have given a better battery than the included 2,600mAh.

oo clip for specs...wtf...
the tool AAA will be damn heavy...better just duct tape the AAA to some headband

all advertising scam...this 18days is at 2 lumens.
got other lights 3 months run time! at 0.03 lumens or something...and they use 14500 / AA...no need worry about proprietary

end of the day it boils down to the level that you're most likely to use and imo in a tent, 100l is more than enough... as is the 400l for walkabout. hence, comparing the two:

s2r ii v e1
@ 120l: 14 hr v 14.5h
@ 400l 4.5h v 3.4h

so going by the official specs alone, you win some, you lose some (although at s2r ii's price level, had the klarus shipped with the 3600mah battery, it would have blown the competition out of the water!)

yups... not really suitable for aaa, but the 10180 seems ideal, no? the little clip-ons should have built-in side shields to keep the glare aware

Lol...

u use 100L in a tent? damn thats a big tent.
walkabout depends what u do, pitch black even 10L enough.

it's a six sleeper tent... and no, i don't use 100l. most times i hang my s1r turbo s with the traffic wand attached @ 60l if i need to do some reading. otherwise the 12l is more than sufficient (rated for 33h). has served me well thus far. for my general walkabout, i have my trusty manker u12. the engineering mode works great in that you can adjust the brightness to suit your needs... or prolong runtime. and yes, i have a keychain light hanging on my backpack running on aaa. guess one is never enough

engineering mode reminds me of my zebralight...i got the sc52w just lying around in the box cos i hardly use it anymore.
btw, for camping light just buy from mrdiy haha

to be fair i don't think the engineering mode is the only thing that kept you away from your zebralight, right?

lol... not just for camping. mr diy has lights for all occasion

nothing beats 300L lantern in an open campsite. Even better when its under a light coloured flysheet

was contacted by an old friend to do a review of these newly release headlamps...

just no point using the zebralight... only once in awhile when i need some extra lighting to shoot products that i will use it.
the only AA lights I use now are manker e12 which i leave in the car... and nitecore ea11 that i leave on bedside table cos it has a red lamp.

i suppose if you have other options, then yeah, no point using the zebralight

ya i feel like selling off the lights i dont use...
the zebralight was fun for its time...

akan datang... the i1r2 eos. what i find strange is that although it pushes 20l more, it seems to be a downgrade from its predecessor in the sense that:

(i) smaller battery capacity (70mah vs 80mah);
(ii) lesser throw (40m v 54m)
(iii) lesser light intensity (400cd v 730cd)
(iv) less stamina (@ max 15m v 20m; @ 5l 6h v 7h)
(v) fractionally heavier (13g v 12g)
(vi) fractionally bigger

so what gives???

(waiting for rookiedaddy's enlightenment)
