I see they offer a couple of accessories. If I may ask a question off topic: What would be the practical use of a green or a blue filter, anyone?

Green for map reading at night, no loss of night vision, blue for spotting blood.

Don't you mean RED for LESS loss of night vision?

Green as well, more so when you need to differentiate between colours on a map.

That's interesting, never heard of green light being used like that before. Backlighting a map with a red light has always worked for me.

I hope this Klarus XT 11 lives up to its reputation, was interested in the Olight and then I read this (http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?334884) so mine is in the post.

does anyone know of an AA torch that is for some reason better than the 4sevens quark pro?

Myself not keen on AA torches

the reason i want AA is commonality with my other electronics. In my work I use AA's a lot so I always have stacks of them. Even in shops they are a lot more common than Cr123's etc, and more affordable
