I love my Maratac AAA and EDC it everyday. I want another one but honestly to pay the shipping cost from County C 😥 is difficult for me to pull the trigger on
I’ve got a Thrunite T10 incoming. Should be here Friday. My last EDC light crapped out on me, again, so I’m done with the L3 L11C for now.

Click to expand…Your L11C failed? How?
I’m looking for Christmas gifts…SolarForce Z2 on its way to compare with a Fenix E12… most likely choice though, is a Coleman Micro Packer 3AA LED lantern… seems very well built for the price point… complaints were no diffuser… the translucent cup works well

Click to expand…The first one quit lighting after about 2 months. I could tell it was on because it would get warm and drain the battery, but no light. So I sent it in and they sent a new one. The new one’s clip was so loose as to be unuseable so I took it off and it was fine that way. Then, again after about 2 months, same thing. No light. Fool me twice, and all that. So I’m gonna try out the Thrunite which seems to make decent stuff. I’d rather have the Nichia 219 but I’d rather it work too.

Click to expand…Dang, that sucks. Thankfully none of my L10Cs or L11Cs have done that. Hope the Thrunite works out better for you.

Maelstrom Regen MMR-X en route!
I will probably also get a Nitecore Tube for my keys when the batteries on my Photon Freedom run out.

Just got word that my Maratac AAA Cu from massdrop has arrived into the country… just hope it doesn’t get stuck in customs for weeks…

Click to expand…Yup. I think I like the numbers on the Thrunite better though. It’s a little bigger, but it has a higher high at the same runtime, and I think I’m going to like the slightly-higher firefly mode. I also think I’m going to prefer having 3 total modes instead of 4. The L3 can be had with 3 modes but you give up the firefly instead of one of the middle modes, for some reason. I wish I could get the Thrunite in a higher-CRI emitter, but I’ll take what I can get if the light works for more than 2 months and the clip isn’t useless. I looked around at single-AA lights and this one was the best balance of cost and specs(many didn’t have a <1 lumen mode at all, and that's a dealbreaker for someone who uses that a LOT).
I’ve Got a pair of single AAA Thrunite light coming in soon. Its the small Al one mode 120 lumen model, burns a battery in 45 minutes! Ill be needing a fresh pack in my kit I suppose.
