    I want an SC600 mkII thrower

    Recommend me a light for EDC and use as a Bike light

    I found that I needed TWO lights when riding my bike. One that is floody and one that is throwy. The floody light is great for slower riding, but I like to see a bit down the road, especially if I am going down a hill and picking up speed. I use a FourSevens G5 for the throw and a Zebralight...

    What LED flashlight is sitting on your nightstand?

    TK-75. Great for seeing stuff from my deck out large distances in the back yard and surrounding area

    Pocket 1x18650 thrower for walking country roads at night

    Does anyone have any experience with the SRT-6 as an "in the middle" (between flood and throw) light? I really like the idea of an "infinite" adjustable output (yes, I know infinite is a misnomer). I may have to get more than one light :grin2:

    Pocket 1x18650 thrower for walking country roads at night

    First, let me clarify "Waay down the road". Maybe that was exaggerated because my context is the SC600, which is a great floodlight, but no throw. So for this thread "waay" means 150 to 250 yards (or so). I have a TK75 for "crazy throw", but I don't want to carry the beast for a long walk. On...

    brightest 1 AAA led light?

    +1 on the Fenix LD series. I want the LD02. I have the LD01. Of all my lights this one gets the most use. It's always hanging on my keychain. My wife even asked for one. The LDs are not the brightest AAA, but likely among the most useful. Other than the "Wow!" factor, much brighter will be more...

    Best 2AA with good moon light mode?

    I have had good luck with the 4Sevens Quark line. Although I prefer my Fenix LD22 for "feel", as it seems higher quality. Note that this is purely subjective and it has no moonlight mode. It's just a great 2AA light

    Pocket 1x18650 thrower for walking country roads at night

    Yeah, maybe you are right. I am basing a lot of this on my Zebralight (which I love, but it isn't cutting this use-case). The Zebralight has a HUGE gap between turbo and the next mode down Walking with the Zebralight is great until you want to see a bit down the road, then you have to really...

    Pocket 1x18650 thrower for walking country roads at night

    I appreciate all the responses. I have been looking at reviews for all the lights mentioned. One of the things I notice when walking is that there is a huge gap between Turbo and the next level down on my Zebralight. Its also so floody that I need to kick it to turbo to see across a field and...

    Pocket 1x18650 thrower for walking country roads at night

    Thanks everyone for your posts. I have looked at the responses. It seems that while most of the lights here will do 650 to 1000 lumens in turbo, they all step down to something like 250 - 400 lumen pretty quickly. I have a 4Sevens G5 that does about 350 lumens for a decent amount of time. Am I...

    Pocket 1x18650 thrower for walking country roads at night

    I have a Zebralight SC600 MKII and LOVE the size, the massive lumens, and the multi-output. However, I took it walking the other night and there were some very dark roads that I wanted to look WAAAY down the road. In order to see far enough I had to crank the SC600 up to turbo and then it was...

    New to the Flashlight world LOL Trying to find a flash light.

    a headlamp may be best. If you want to get a standard flashlight (not a headlamp) then make sure it will tailstand. you will want to be able to set it down and have it shoot up into your work space. The zebralight SC600 is super bright and tailstands nicely

    Newbie: Just how dangerous are 18650s?
