What Happened to the Sten?
Posted: Jan 8, 2012 1:53 pm
So the Sten Light is by far the top go-to light for cavers (for durabliity, battery life, price etc, dont start saying Apex, Fenix, whatever FTW, thats not what this is about). But it hasnt been updated in over 3 years, while lights like the Scurion, and Rude Nora are sailing past it, and lights like the Fenix's and Apexen are catching up rather quickly.
The Sten is still a great light but hopefully it doesnt fall by the way side.
Has anyone heard of any updated versions in the pipeline?
Edit to add this too:
Many of the new "major" lights shift to a wide/angle spot setup. Seems to be the new thing, and was one of the major reasons I sold my Sten and went with a Scurion. Not for the lumens but for the spot (lumens were reason number 2 lol).
