Hi Guys/Gal's,
Fist off I found y'all from the guys at Watchuseek and the DWC (Dive Watch Connection) after asking about of all things flashlights. And I gotta say, this is as bad as getting into watches … LOL But, due to my pay grade (this purchase looks like I'll be spending around two bills or so), I'm hoping to get it right or close to it the first time.
After wearing my eyeballs out, as well as frying my brain reading reviews over the past week or so. I'm presently torn between two lights;
1. FENIX TK21 U2 CREE XM-L U2 @ 468 Lumens (from what I've read and seen, this light throws it's light well)

2. Olight M30 Triton CREE MC-E @ 700 Lumens (something about the ability to use 2-18650 batteries is pulling me toward this light. But could find any info if using two batteries will increase it's run time and or give it more throwing power).

Now to the meat of this thread. After deciding on a flashlight, I've now seen threads/posts regarding chargers. I was initially planning on ordering the flashlight, charger and batteries, plus a few extra batteries (to make it easy) from one source e.g. Battery Junction.
But (please correct me if I'm assuming wrong, I mean no disrespect) have since read that BJ doesn't carry a quality charger?
I work throughout the night, so my flashlight is a daily tool. Safety is also a big issue for me since my dogs and I live and work out of my MotorHome.
Now for the million dollar question, What charger would you recommend I purchase?
Sorry for the long post! But as I mentioned, would like to get this purchase as close the first time if possible.
Thanks,
Pops
