Wait a minute, a couple dozen posts up you were trying to sell me on a $260 flashlight, now you're saying that you're carrying a larger, dimmer, incandescent?

No, it isn't dimmer than the HDS. Note the modified high intensity lamp part. It is a lot brighter than the HDS. Also, I like incans sometimes. And I have seen it argued that incans perform better in some conditions, such as smoke and fog, than LEDs. I'm not sure that is true but on the chance it is I like having a really bright incan for emergencies.
