I own, and often carry, a lot of lights. The i1R2 probably hasn't got the most hours on it, but in terms of the number of times it gets turned on, it's by far the winner.

Late to the party but my Streamlight Protac 2L-X. That thing has seen fire scenes and military trips. On a light...er note it was also used as a spotlight for my cousins' makeshift Wizard of Oz play. It also illuminated a tiny disco ball at a party for a few hours!

There's smaller, brighter etc but this thing rocks for many of my use cases.

Love it. It's a bigger carry than what I would take with me outside of work, but the trade-off is that it's much more capable.
