I'm thinking about getting a D4V2 or KR4 in one of these setups:

NTG35 1800K and 5000K with a Carclo 10623 optic

or

SFT-25R 6500K and FFL351A 5000K with the N244SW optic

I'm trying to decide between an SC600w and an SC65c for EDC use. I'm leaning towards the SC600w because of its higher output and less rosy tint, but it definitely looks chonkier than the SC65c, maybe even the D4K. I need the light to be able to fit in a pocket alongside my phone (not a fan of pocket clips)...could it work with the SC600w?

I'm considering getting a Zebralight so I can see what all the hype is about. But I'm kinda hesitant since there's no color options on their website and the anodizing finish you get (black, gray, army green, tan-ish) seems to be random, even if all the pictures on the site show just one color. If I'm gonna pay as much as I would for an Arkpro or E07X Cannon, I'd at least like to be able to ensure that I get a black one...is there a way to do that? Or would I just have to hope I get the right one?

If the Lume1 SFT-42R version puts out 7500 lumens, how much would the Lume10 put out? The only reviews/tests I've seen have been for the Lume1 or LumeX1 versions and I don't have the equipment to measure it myself...

I doubt I'll ever use the powerbank feature, but if it increases output and/or has better turbo runtime, then I'm in.

This would be a no-brainer if both emitters had the same beam profile, but since the w2 is throwy while the sst20 is floody, I'm not sure which optics are gonna look good. If it can make both emitters look similar in beam profile (this guy's light is a good example) without any weird artifacts, then that's what I want.

I'm on jlhawaii808, so I can choose from carclo, noctigon and custom optics...which ones should I get for my D4K?

Ideally something that's throwy for the "lightsaber" effect and dual channel so I can use both colors?

I want something with high output, aux LEDs and as many features as possible. It should not be too small, either...I already have enough keychain/pocket lights as it is.

I have no doubt that docs, nurses, techs, etc. would easily notice a proper diaper under scrub pants since they work with diapered patients all the time. Would something like a goodnite be slim enough to avoid detection? Even if slightly wet? (I'm not gonna intentionally wet at work, but I do have mild urinary incontinence that comes and goes)

I want a monocular that I can slip in a pocket alongside my phone and flashlight. If you know what an olight arkpro is, you'll have an idea of the size I'm going for.

Ideally the monocular would also be at least somewhat rugged. I'm not expecting too much at sub-$100 prices, but if it can survive a drop or two then I'll be happy.

I'm thinking about getting a SK05 Pro 2 and am leaning towards the MAO version, but apparently MAO finishes are notorious for easily getting scratched and dirty if they're not done well. Does Loop Gear do a good job of it? Would a good finish still hold up to being in a pocket or purse with other shit?
