So I work in a cave as a tour guide I do both walking tours(on paved sections in lit areas) and adventure tours (close to actual caving) so I use flashlights a lot for this. I also do caving regularly in the TAG area.
HD02: So I got the HD02 because it had a laser and the wings are useful for photography, I have had if for about 5 months so far and it has been wonderful and the Wurkkos customer service extremely helpful, the light itself lasts a fairly long time I mostly use it to point things out and as a spot light. (If you have the light on high for gods sake lock it before putting in your pocket)
The laser is a laser and is not to bright nor to dim.
The wing light’s ability to change temperature is amazing for taking pictures, the main light works well as a spotlight and the ability to lower the light level is nice, the black light is a 365nm which is always nice and more useful to me than a 395.
The reason I say that customer service is great it that the one I got had a driver problem, and was draining cells even when off or locked, I emailed Wurkkos and they replaced it.
TD04: it’s a nice bright light, fits nicely in the hand and with it’s different modes it is great for caving, it’s bright settings will light an entire room and the dim settings are good for keeping it on for a prolonged time.
Zebralights: there headlamps: H600d MK IV spill/spot and the H600Fc MK IV floody, these lights are great they will lasts for over 10 hours on the medium low setting (there are 6 settings medium low is the 3rd up from lowest) this makes it amazing for caving I have both lights on my helmet, they are very waterproof (I once thought I could use one underwater and took the floody to about 60 feet down in saltwater, they don’t work down there they just cycle through modes, but it servied it’s also 7 years old)
