After the unfortunate group buy fiasco, the SC26 also affectionately known as the Fatty (due to its appearance in 26350 format), is finally available through several online retailers.
It now sports a XHP35 HD or XHP35 HI LED, along with several other body colors.
With a choice of ramping UI and fixed modes UI, 2 different battery formats and 6 tritium slots – it all seems like we are on to a home run or is it?
As its name suggests, the Fenix UC35 V2.0 is the 2nd iteration/version of the rather popular Fenix UC35 2014 model.
There are several improvements over the model it replaces and a rather useful “hack” that we accidentally stumbled across.
The Concept 2 (C2) is the latest from Nitecore’s Concept line – the first was the Concept 1 which was introduced in 2017.
This is the highest output flashlight from Nitecore with a smallish form factor – and is possibly why it is in the Concept lineup.
That said, let’s check out the merits and demerits of this flashlight.
The Olight I3T (or i3T) EOS is the latest iteration of the I Series (keychain).
In keeping with the tradition of the previous EOS model (I3E), the I3T utilises the Philips LUXEON LED but ditches the keychain – in favor of a dual direction pocket clip.
The majority of the AAA flashlights available currently are twisty-style switches. Hence, having the I3T with the clicky forward switch is definitely a nice welcome.
