I have bought several torches from SB and they have always been solid and reliable lights.. He has quite a a good rep and selling junk would not be in his best interest.. Sure you can buy a light cheaper from DX but I would rather deal with a seller who is easy to contact and usually answers any and all questions within 24 hours.. I am also going to buy one of the PLI MCE lights.. The beamshot below is right in line with many of the P7's.. I read in a separate review that these have a little better throw that most stock p7's, we'll see if that is true..

For a great helmet light look at the L-mini version 2.. I use the original L-mini as a helmet light and they are small and have great throw along with multiple modes.
