Ok, here's my situation. I need a flashlight for camping in very dark dense forests. Essentially what I want, is the brightest possible light for 30$ or less. I've been looking everywhere for the right kind of light and to be honest I'm completely confused. What's the difference between watts and lumens, and how do they pertain to how bright the light will actually be?
I've been told Maglite is the best "tried and true" but I refuse to believe that, considering they seem to be slow on the pickup of LEDs and even more advanced batteries like lithium. I want a light that's not going to be orange in tint, and will have a decent runtime of least 2 hours. I would want something rechargable but I think that will probably run me more than 30$.
Anyhow, any advice on this matter will be greatly appreciate.
P.S. Sorry if this has been asked a million times over.
