    I've done a lot of reading on CPF but have yet to join. I've been so busy with kids and home improvement lately that I haven't had much time to visit any of the websites that I am already a member of, like this one.

    So far the Fenix is the only bona fide torch I have but I'm thinking about asking for an Olight for father's day. I've heard very good things about Olight.

    I can't believe I missed this thread
    I have a bit of a fetish. Have a few Streamlight poly's, a couple Inforce 9v's and a Surefire weapon mount that saw some serious time in Iraq and Afghanistan. (given to me by a close friend that was in the marines. this is my favorite of coarse. Can't thank him enough)

    The Elzetta looks like a nice light. First I've heard of them.

    I've got the M60 now and use it for a home defense light. Too big for a pistol mount.

    I second Olight, mine is the M22 Warrior. I have a couple of surefire lights and they are good but I moved to rechargeable cells due to cost of 123's and surefire not accepting 18650's instead of 2-C123's.
    I have the M22 set on low for most tasks and if I need a brighter light I simply push the tail cap twice and it will go to full power. Push three times and it goes to strobe.

    Check out goinggear.com for reviews of many lights. They are a good company to deal with and reasonable prices on lights and batteries/chargers etc.
