Hi guys
I am new to this forum and i hope to learn from you guys. I would like to ask some questions.
Firstly, what are some of the factors that affect the quality of a flashlight?
Secondly, I understand that the brightness is measured in lumens, but how bright is for example 10 lumens?
Thridly, I am going camping in some place in Malaysia and will be doing lots of night time activities. So i need a flashlight that have long battery life and will be bright enough to light up the path in front of me (about 20 metres). I have look through some flashlights, and i thought that Surefire lights are not for me. I think i will go for a Streamlight but don't know which one. I am not working so i have some budget (about $30) and i need one that is durable. I am looking at the TwinTasks and the Streamlight Jr. but still can't decide.
I hope you guys can help me out. Thanks.
