The pelican is a good deal at $59-$69. depending where you buy it.
I think you mean the P61 bulb (120lumens & 20 min battery) , as opposed to the P60 bulb (60 lumens and 60 min battery life).
As well R nicholls has the Nitrolon G2 on sale for $49.95. available in OD tan And Black. couple things worth noting here. The G2 has a "nitrolon body as opposed to the Alum body of the 6P. The lense is the real difference here though. The lense is made of a tough polymer plastic that will deform and melt if you leave the lamp on too long by accident. Then you need a replacement head assembly. (differnt from the Lamp assembly) The other point worth noting is that most of the sure fire lights in that family of sizes run on the same Lamp assembly P60. So you getthe sam light from the G2 as the Centurion, Just the body up-grades. You can also switch the P61 in and out as you please and It savailable separate from the flash light. If I recall these are worth about 25 bux on their own. But... they made a bad batch a few years ago and had no problems send you your free replacement in the mail under warrenty if you got a bad one. Or you can pick up the 6P knock off I sell with the xenon bulb for $5.00 and a scope ring to mount it for $7.00.
Yeah I know a little about Flashlights, don't let it get around, cuz, dude, I sell Pants.
