Durable, bright, and floody?

I am looking for a durable LED flashlight. It will be used around the farm and outdoors, so it probably won't be babied (might get thrown around, dropped).

I would like something floody, and as bright as possible. I'd like to really be able to light things up (eg. for finding lost deer bodies in the bush at night).

No preference of batteries.

My ideal budget would be max $100 but I might consider going higher.

I've done a little browsing on this forum in the last few days. I liked the brightness and floodiness of the Klarus G20 (around $60 on sale?), but it doesn't look very durable.

What are my best options?

Thanks in advance!

Have a look at the Malkoff Wildcat V6, it's available with either the MD3 body or the MD4.

An MD4 body will accept 2 x 18650 (3500mAh) batteries and would last twice the amount of time of an MD3 with 2 x 18500 (1700mAh) batteries.

In most cases 500 lumens are anough

a Convoy S2+ or Eagle Eye X2R with orange peal reflector are pretty floody cheap and durable
its easy to mod them or have a spare driver
