I'm looking for a tactical flashlight--a lightweight, compact single AA handheld, no wide reflector or one having an orange peel surface, neither a lens with a diffuser coating, having a very tight, narrow beam for throw (minor spill).
If one exists, I'd really like one employing inductors for boosting voltage from a 1.2V NiMH or 1.5V primary battery.
I want to use it primarily for searching tree markers and secondly as a redundancy back up for my headlamp (using a makeshift diffuser in that case, the lamp does not have to have one built in).
The reason for AA configuration is because my headlamp will likely be AA, and I want to rely on the same size batteries.
I would like it to have a few output options, with at least one in the 50-100 lm range and one in the 400-500 range (unless the beam is so obnoxiously tight output doesn't need to go that high for results).
I'd like it to be a quality flashlight in the price range of $60-100. (i.e. no Surefires ) Cool white tint is okay as long as it's not obnoxiously blue.
:devil: I'd also like to fry an egg with this thing, or tear up Klingon D7 class battlecruisers, :rock: (which ever comes first.) (Not really, but you get my drift.)
Any suggestions?
