The P26 is a sturdy, durable, web built flashlight. There are a few things that one must get accustomed to when deploying this unit for daily use. For one, the included pocket clip can sometimes get in the way when holding the light and using ones thumb to activate the tail-switch. And because the clip best sits on the flattened portions of the body, adjusting it to try to overcome this limitation can be somewhat pointless. Additionally, there is a lanyard ring that screws onto the body close to the end cap. This allows the lanyard to securely mate to the body of the light and avoids the possibility of the lanyard getting unintentionally worn down and cut from rubbing against a semi-sharp portion of the light body as is to be found on the tail-cap. It is great addition, but one has to be vary careful with this ring as it can move back and forth on its threads causing the tail-cap not to make firm contact with the battery. When this happens, the light wont work and it may take a bit of assessing to determine that the lanyard ring is just too close to the tail-cap. The adjusting ring that allows the light to go from 0.5 lumen up to 100 lumen output is not easily adjustable when the light is being held in a "tactical grip" as its positioning on the light doesn't allow for easy adjustment while operational. However, this design represents an interesting departure from the pre-programmed fixed output designs that are prevalent today and allows for more precise control of the output. Possibly, an option that allowed both modes of operation could be a good trade-off, but then again, that may also drive up the cost somewhat. Those are the dislikes, here are the likes for this light. Strong, consistent output. Used at night primarily for search and identify, the light produces a very strong, consistent beam. No fussing there. It is easy to handle in most cases and with the belt clip and lanyard ring removed, it tends to fit ones hand almost like it was a finger. The build quality is excellent with its parts fitting snugly together which aids in its water resistance. I used two different 18650 batteries in the light. Both had dissimilar mAh ratings and I found the light performed well in both instances. My next step is to procure an original Nightcore battery and assess the performance with that battery installed. Overall, I can say definitively that for the price, the P26 is a good buy. Its performance, look, feel and functionality are above par cumulatively and it can be a great enhancement to your toolbag or box. Read full review
