I am looking at the Nitecore lights right now. Can't decide between the D10 or the EZAA

Pretend that size doesn't matter and isn't an issue, regarding it's performance,
do you think it's worth the price? $160 sounds like a hell of a deal for that kind of output! I love the fact that it's an LED too! I wanna get my dad something cool and he loves bright *** flashlights. What do you think? Is it worth getting for my dad? He's leaving to Croatia in 2 weeks and I wanna get him a gift before he goes so he can bring it with him and this sounds perfect.

Hahahha, no, but my finger has been hovering over the mouse button for weeks.

It is pre-order right now, so not yet released.

Batteries alone will cost ~$100 if you don't already have 6 18650 li-ion's laying around.

Yeah. black bear sells custom ones (bezels), but I never understood what they are for? Do they serve a purpose other then inflicting more damage on someone's face?
