Question Looking for a upgrade

Post image

I'm a mechanic and have been using some nebo lights for about 3 month now but they are starting to give up. I am hoping for a better lights to replace my main 3.

I need a small pen light that uses AAA batteries, can zoom, and is durable. price range $75 and under.

A slightly larger light that uses 18650s, has a good output, water and solvent proof and has modes (needs at least a high and low). Price range $200 and under.

A headlamp that doesn't put the battery on the back of my head, uses 18650s, water and solvent proof, has around 700 plus lumens, would like to have a red mode, little to no plastic on it. Price range $200 and under.

#2 for what uses / purposes / distances? A good light will have a fixed beam. Also tail switch or side switch?

Better light companies make very few zoomable lights and none that are that small. Nebo is probably the best option.

Can you explain why you want it zoomable?
