Hi Guys,
I have just returned to the world of Flashlights having spent a number of years away from the forum. It's nice to be back. What I have found is a tremendous advance in available technology, it really is superb.
So..my primary use is walking at night on trails and across country, in total darkness. I have started looking at 18650 lights as I want a good output for a long time and also the re-charging factor. Also the requirement is neutral white, for the better color rendition.
Armytek Wizard looks very nice - but is it too floody for walking?
Fenix HL55 looks to have quite a lot of ambient flood, but also a large hotspot which I quite desire to be honest. I like to be able to see down the trail to see what's ahead. Having said that, the Youtube vids show the HL55 to be a little more floody than throwy, so I'm wondering if this 'too floody' question would apply to the Fenix too??
What are peoples experiences when walking with either of these, any comments very much welcomed.
Thanks Steve
