Just recieved my A2 today and it's quite the light. Not too big or heavy, and the grip is just right. Though it's not as bright as the higher lumen SureFires, it definitely has throw, especially the incandescent. The 3 LEDs are really handy, and useable if you're walking around at night. I'm definitely keeping it with me when I go out.

To the people thinking that a forum for flashlights is stupid/weird: don't be retarded, and keep in mind you're on a forum dedicated solely to HEADPHONES. Someone will always be able to say something of that sort is weird/stupid, it just depends on how close-minded they are.
Anyway, I'm a bit of a light-whore, I have a 4-D and 6-D cell Maglite, and an INOVA X0, all mounted in my car somewhere. They're all cool in their own ways, but I dread the day I need to refill the 6D Mag, it's practically half the price of the flashlight... I've also upgraded bulbs (from 9004 to 9007) in my car, as well as added driving lights. At some point I want to retrofit some bixenon projectors.
I was also just thinking, if I were to get a $300 light, it'd probably be a crazy HID one...

Time to revive this thread as new things are coming from Surefire soon. Cree LED's are to be added to some already proven models in March.
I have a Surefire G2 coming that I got from Lighthound. I want to see what the Surefire incandescent is all about. Once the Cree's roll out I'm hoping to pick up an E1L.
I'm also rather tempted by a Cree Orb Raw Ns to put on my keychain...

Actually, it looks more like the SSC P4's are taking off faster. Primarily due to their beam angle being closer to Luxeon, not to mention the packaging of the emitter is nearly the same (well, except for the cathode and anode being backwards). The Cree's require a different reflector, and the emitter packing is completely different.
But the spill is much brighter, so the Cree's make a superior flood light. And when the Q3 bin's are out, Seoul SemiConductor will have some catching up to do. Not to mention LumiLED. Luxeons are falling behind quickly.
Rob is pretty busy getting those Raw Da's out the door. Might be some time before he offers any more custom stuff. I'm glad I snagged a Raw Ti XR-E when I did.
