    Hunter's Flashlight - Suggestions?

    I'm not a hunter myself, but I've been asked the following and would appreciate suggestions: "...I need a flashlight primarily to track wounded game. Need to see tracks and blood on the ground. Also need to be able to scan an area to look for eye reflections. If the light dies on me, I'm...

    Modern replacement for UltraStinger: Work light for inspections

    Looking across a dark crawlspace in an old basement to examine a physically difficult to access area for pest damage or water infiltration, or peering up or down a chimney - I see why he likes a powerful light. Certainly less lumens are preferable for close inspection of details - which should...

    Modern replacement for UltraStinger: Work light for inspections

    Looking for suggestions for a flashlight for a friend who does home inspections. He currently uses a Streamlight Ultra Stinger. Claimed lumens on those are about 295 I think but that seems to be exaggerated a bit or perhaps only at top of charge. Requirements: LED Rechargeable 250+ lumens on...

    HELP!: TITANIUM INNOVATIONS ILLUMINATOR HID SPOTLIGHT Problem

    Help! I have an old version (I believe) of the Titanium Innovations Illuminator Spot Light - at least it appears to be the same product as pictured on the Battery Junction web page here: http://www.batteryjunction.com/titanium-illuminator.html though mine has a green body, and I think i may have...

    Vibram FiveFingers

    I have Vibram Five Fingers. They are great. IF you get them, start out slowly - your feet are not used to being...feet. Once you start wearing them, you won't want to run or do other things without them. People will check them out if you wear them in public. This can be fun if you are...

    Out of the loop - Advice for Latest and Greatest EDC, etc.

    I'm very flexible though I do seem to run through more CR123 than anything else. I have a McLux III PD which would be my EDC if I weren't so reluctant to risk losing it. That said, I intend to buy myself several flashlights this season, and I'm open to variety, both in form factor and battery...

    Out of the loop - Advice for Latest and Greatest EDC, etc.

    I've been out of the flashlight loop for about two years (during which time I have been changing diapers - no, not my own...) and would really appreciate some input on how I might spoil myself this Christmas season with some new purchases that I have missed out on while warming bottles (yes...

    Stenlight S7

    It is a very specialized light for caving, though it is very useful in other applications. I have one, and I don't cave. Quick thought is this - it is about as bright and durable as you can possibly get in a LED based headlamp, and has a long run time. It will probably do the job of lighting...

    Night-Ops Gladius Blackhawk Junk

    I hope if your Glock blows up you are carrying a six D mag with which to beat your dangerous neighbors to death! Now how much for that crap Gladius of yours? Obviously, you will be asking just a fraction of the purchase price due to it being so enormously crappy. Might I suggest $50? I will...

    LOST my HDS EDC XRGT, now what???

    I was thinking I could use a Fenix P1D CE until the new HDS lights come out. Thoughts on this light? *EDIT* Ah, I see it is in pre-order at Fenix store. I guess it isn't available yet. :ohgeez:

    Night-Ops Gladius Blackhawk Junk

    More important than your dissatisfaction with your Gladius is your statement that you were "practicing strategic light use" - was this in front of a mirror? What were you wearing? Just curious. :laughing:
