Been watching the Ghost Hunters (TAPS) series on TheDareWall and I just got to season 6.
They drive around in upscale SUVs. They have infrared cameras, wireless audio and video; Tons of expensive electronics; But yet it looks the best flashlight they can afford is a Maglight 2AA with a beam full of rings, while most of the crew looks like they have Harbor Freight multi LED specials. . . .
They they point their lights down hallways trying to see what's happening 30 meters away, and the lights can't even illuminant that far.
Even taking the whole ghost thing out of the equation, some of the places they have been are just dangerous to navigate in without good lights. I would want a nice floody light GP light like a PD32UE that I could keep on low for moving around. Then I'd also want a pocket thrower like a Fenix TK or a ArmyTek Predator for those long dark hallways. Of course I would want some spare 3,400ma cells for each. Finally a nice 1xAA D25A or a 2xAA LD22 (or similar) as a last ditch back up.
But things that look a lot like Harbor Freight specials. . . . No Thanks!
