Ok, I searched the threads and found that people have already sung praises for the Fenix TK-11. I wanted to add that the Fenix PD30 is an outstanding pocket or backup flashlight.
I bought one from Amazon for about 60 bucks, and it was a well invested 60 dollars. The flashlight is very small, being about 4 and a half inches long and about 4 ounces in weight (guess on the weight, mind you...). It is very well constructed. The body is metal and it has good seals, texture, etc. The end cap button is a little stiffer then some lights I have owned, but that is a minor issue.
The Good News: It is BRIGHT! I have put it up against my D Cell, my Stinger, and my Surefire, and it smokes them! It is not as focused a beam as some of my lights, but it makes up for it by just turning whatever I point it at to daylight. The only negative I would give it, is that it is good for about 20 yards for police work. After that I would prefer something that has a narrower beam.
I also bought rechargeable batteries and a charger, so I am into it for another 25 bucks. Even with that purchase though, it is still much cheaper than the competition.
After purchasing it, I was so impressed that I bought the AA version and threw it into my motorcycle's saddle bags. I give it a solid thumbs up!
