Hi there,
It's been a long time since I posted. On the advice of a few members, I bought a SkyRay King. I'm very happy with my flashlight.
Last year I bought my dad a £10 zoomable Cree flashlight on eBay. He likes to shine it into the sky when it's misty. Don't ask, but I think it's might be for the same reason that he sets off fireworks on my late mum and late brother's birthdays. I figured I'd like to get him a small, cheap laser to make a better light show. Whatever makes him feel better. He's a responsible adult, and he doesn't need anything that could ignite a match, just something to shine brightly into the heavens. We live way off in the sticks on a rocky coastline, so he's not likely to interfere with air traffic. Nor would he want to.
I'm thinking about £20, something that uses 18650 cells or similar, and that I can buy off eBay. My knowledge of lasers is very poor. I'm only familiar with the little pointers that my cats play with. I figured that since you guys are all candlepower enthusiasts, some of you might know about lasers. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
