Ace - do you have the Eagle Tec T20C2? That one looks pretty cool, 300 lumens...http://www.eagletac.com/specials/t20c2/t20c2_2.html

Did you buy one locally or over the internet?
EagleTac
Quark123
The EagleTac has more output, but not enough to make a huge noticable difference. EagleTac is also more money. either one is a good choice though.
Both lights will blow away a Mag light or streamlight.
Internet. If you get the Eagletac, i reccomend this seller. Very good customer service and fast shipping.

Bought this one last yr. I tracked 4 or 5 with it and liked it. It's not as compact as others but well worth the price and fits in my pack.I don't like the blood tracking red/purple light as well as I do the white light except when it comes down to looking for small drops of blood. It doesn't burn through batteries like my other flashlights either.

I've got the EagleTac P10C2, which was their ist model in the "Personal" line. It's a little smaller then Ace's "tactical" one (I believe). I bought my FiL the P20C2 for xmas and he loves it. More power, level setting, strobe but the same size.
I've got a Quark as well, also a great flashlight, it's always a tough call for me whether I want the power of the ET or the lightness of the Quark. One benefit of my Quark is it takes AA so I can carry one set of backup batteries instead of havibg to carry some 123's as well.
Cant go wrong with either and I think you'll find once you start looking into and using a modern flashlight, you'll end up with several. Their like knives and guns.
Between the two IMO, it comes down to whether power or weight is your top priority.
Enjoy it!

Here ya go. These blow all y'all flashlights away.
Yeah but they dont fit in my pocket.....
I have a Fenix PD30 throws 230 lumens on high, I use the first 2 settings for long life, they last forever on 2 lithiums. I bought and extra 12 for 80 cents a piece and Im still running the first 2 10 months later. I use it for work also so its amazing how long it runs.Every time I shine it at night people freak out how far it shines, then I turn it up...

Kendal...that is what we mostly use if if it is a serious tracking job....a Coleman lantern will light up the world at night. I keep one in the truck just in case, took some sheet metal and blocked off one side of the glass so you don't get blinded, wear a thick glove to tote it and you are good.

I'll be another vote for Fenix lights. I worked nights for many years and always depended on a flash light. Started off with a regular Maglight until I could afford the rechargeable. I thought 30,000 candlepower was tremendous. Then the Streamlights came along and everybody had to have one. I have carried the SL series down to the Stingers. I've also worn a Streamlight strapped to my belt for a long time.
I recently bought the Fenix TK 12. It's adjustable from 11 lumens all the way up to 280!!
Brightest light I have ever owned. Very pleased with it's craftsmanship.....

Check out this light from Cabela's. I bought one last year on sale for $20. They're regular $30. I was very surprised how bright it was for its size. Blows my old mini-mag out of the water. Very impressed.

I will stick to my dive lights. I would put any one of them up against any metioned. Plus I already have them and have had them for several years.
When your nite diving you have to have them small and brite!!!

Another vote for the Surefire G2. Small and bright. I keep one in my pack for trailing deer.

I recently ordered one of these from Sportsman's Guide and it uses two AA batteries and is very bright with a focused beam without dark spots in it. Price is around $26.00.

I have one of those winchester blood lights from wal-mart that cost $14 and I carry it as a all around light and it has worked for me so far.
