Hey guys,
I'm sure you guys get flooded with these post all the time, but I just stumbled on this sub and I've definitely found a new rabbit hole. Ideally i'd like something palm size, tail switch, with a simple UI on/off. As far as light specs go, from what I can gather from reading, i'd like something with a balanced mixture of throw and flood. Originally was looking at the Emisar D4. Again, i'm new, so i'd probably stick with something in the AAA/AA range, until I get my feet wet. Thanks for any help in advance.
