U forgot about runtime. My top edc light that i carry is the olight warrior mini 2. The reason is i am a property manager and i run a restaurant, sometimes I don’t use my light at all, other days i am running my light for hours.

Sure i got work lights for projects and repairs. But my edc has to be able to run for hours and provide ample output .

My top five lights that i would EDC:
1-olight warrior mini 2 (runtime)
2-surefire steleto (formfactor, output)
3-olight arkfeld UV (formfactor, runtime)
4-surefire e1b backup MV (small size, wide beam)
5-olight i5r (small size, decent runtime)
6-streamlight microstream (smallest form, but lowest output..)

I got all my lights on sale or with a discount.

The flashlights that made me sufficiently satisfied that im not really looking for better flashlights, are the:
* AA/14500 Pineapple (with 219b emitter)
* AAA/10440 Pineapple Mini (with 519a emitter)
* Wuben X-0 ("handsfree" 90 degree flashlight designed for hikers)
* Mecarmy X1S (keychain flashlight with TIR optics)

I also got the Nitecore MT1A, which has a nice throw, and gives 60 hour runtime on low, which is PLENTY bright enough for night hikes IMO. This is the official "backup flashlight" for NATO, and it used to be my favorite AA flashlight until i got the Pineapple. I also got the 1800 lumen Nitecore MH12S, and although it is kinda cool with such a bright light, i dont actually need it, and i hate fumbling for the side button in the dark. 21700 battery flashlights are also WAY too big IMO, considering even the tiny 10180 battery in the X1S keychain flashlight has me covered for most times when i need a flashlight, and AA is plenty for camping.

Honestly glad Streamlight put out the Wedge. Definitely caused more companies to make flat lights. Just so much more comfortable.

I can understand the issue with port in the Streamlight Wedge, but it’s water resistant even without a flappy on it, just like your phone. If it gets dirty with lint, use a tooth pick, and a compressed air can and clean it out.
Good video though!

Top 100 folders done as a 5 part series… I’d watch the hell outta it.

I was going to buy a new edc flashlight, ofcourse i went to youtube and typed “CutleryLover Top EDC flashlight” and was happy to find a 2023 video❤️ thanks hehe

My most carried light is an Olight M2R Warrior Pro. I know a lot of people lose their mimds when they see olight products but i've carried this light for years without issue. I work construction plumbing high rises so i prefer a high output light because i dont always have power or lighting in the areas i'm working in

I love the Olight Perun Mini 2. The fact that I can clip it to my shirt collar or pocket and have hands-free illumination is fantastic. (I don't wear hats very often so having the emitter canted perpendicular to the chassis is a great feature.)

[ParisofthePlains]

I went back and forth between the Thrunite Saber and the new Olight I3T 2 but ultimately went with the Saber. More lumens, longer throw and slightly cheaper. I also like the fact that the Saber comes with a rechargeable USB-C battery instead of a standard Alkaline battery like the Olight. This video just reaffirms my decision.

Olight mini Warrior 2, is my all time favorite flashlight.

[gunsnwater]

At work its a pollystinger, edc is protac 1L-1AA dual fuel with lithium AA. Bright and long lasting. The 123 heats it up quick but is very bright. Just picked up the streamlight with the carabiner type clip, rechargeable non replaceable battery. 25 bucks 325 lumins. Its nice, would prefer replaceable batteries.

[sotherelulu]

My favorite is the Olight SR1 Baton. I wish it had a regular usb-c charge option but I've learned to keep the magnetic base with me. Also love the thrunite T1. Thank you for the great video

[floyd]

Yeah, Streamlight isn't like Surefire in the fact that they're an all American company with all American flashlights. Most of them are made in China now, but from what I've heard/read, there are different versions of the Wedge, some are made in China, some in the US, not sure which yours is.

My current favorite EDC flashlight is the Vosteed/Reylight Rook. It's an 18350 light with a triple Nichia 519A. Over the years I've began to prioritize light quality (tint and CRI) over light quantity and this light puts out a very beautiful beam. It's also no slouch in the output department with a max output of 1800 lumens. You can also program it's UI for mode memory on or off, moon mode on or off, different mode groups and whether the light goes low up to high or high down to low.

EDC light in my pocket for YEARS...present light is probably my favorite I have ever had...Lumintop AA 2.0.

[Nordraw]

My EDC lately is the Olight Arkfeld beats the hell out of the Sure fire.

[cctvspystore]

Own quite a few Flashlights myself, was at one point a Diehard Flashoholic but I've always considered my Zebralights the best of the bunch

Hey Jeff can we get a fishing video? Maybe a tackle box setup or a rod/reel setup? Ive been on a fishing craze this summer and i would love to see your approach to fishing. Thanks! Hope you see this

[andrewc]

I've had a lot of lights, the pocket clip has alway been one of the most important/make or break features for me.

[jenslietzau]

Most carried: RovyVon A8 (on my keychain), followed by a few A5s (on the zipper pulls of my jackets)
most used: Knog Bandicoot (a headlamp that you can put on with one hand is super useful),
most played around with (recently): Wurkkos WK40

[desertratedc]

The streamlight wedge, stylus pro, and acebeam pokelit AA are definitely in my top three!
