"The only light worth a damn out of the ones you listed is the Streamlight."
"Can’t go wrong with Streamlight."

(10)
"Small size - Wurkkos TS11."
"Wurkkos hd01 would be the only choice with a laser and high cri."
"I have one, its awesome."
"Here's a link to the HD01 UV flashlight."
"The UV is very strong and of the good 365nm variety."
"May be look at the ts10 max."
"Wurkkos TD05 or Sofirn SP31 v3."
"Wurkkos TD05."
"Any multi LED with 519. Wurkkos TS10 is pretty small and cheap."

"
"Can’t go wrong with Surefire."

TLR

"It gives more light than the other tlr 7s."
