[QUOTE="_CY_, post: 1424578, member: 7629"] that's so not true... Surefire was and is always the innovator for flashlights. Surefire was one of the first companies to offer LED (Luxeon) in flashlights. Arc LS First Run was world's first Luxeon flashlight. Surefire followed closely afterwards. Chinese companies like Fenix and 4sevens followed many years later. companies like Arc and Surefire were the true innovators. Surefire has worlds largest R&D for flashlights and it shows. long time flasholic here from candlepower forum days... started with 4sevens on CPF... Fenix was the first chinese company to offer a quality flashlight. here's a picture of that first offering in stainless ... single AA light driving a Luxeon.... they claimed 500, but closer to 75 was accounted for. a major reason for Fenix's success was due to technology transfer from CPF... 4sevens really helped with early development at Fenix. He was Fenix's first distributor and later came out with his own line. But Candlepower Forums was and still is the mother ship for flashlight technologies. two super rare Fenix L1+ Stainless [attach=full]85033[/attach] L1+ with custom kydex holster made by another cpf from Germany [attach=full]85034[/attach] A few Arc Flashlights...
