    Penlight Recommendation

    Thanks for the reply, this is very helpful. I've only been into 'decent' flashlights for about a year or so, so I'm still finding a lot out. I know the runtimes are always exaggerated, although I have started using the higher capacity Eneloop XX's which pick up some of the slack. I was under...

    Penlight Recommendation

    Hey, I'm only going by the quoted figures, I'm not familiar with the company. Perhaps you could explain why, as it comes across as a bit patronizing otherwise (which I'm sure is unintended).

    POST APOCALYPTIC "EDC" Flashlight, which ONE would you choose ?

    Re: POST APOCALYPTIC "EDC" Flashlight, which ONE would you choose ? I'd probably opt for my zebralight h51fw and either my fenix ld20 or ld40, a good stash of eneloop xx's. 25% higher capacity so longer run times. Get a reliable and efficient solar charger (any recommendations for this are most...

    Penlight Recommendation

    Wow, there's a whole lotta love for the preon 2. It's a nice looking light, but the numbers don't really work for me. 160 lumens is really bright, but it comes at the expense of runtime. For me personally, 45 minutes just isn't good enough. I think the ld05 has a better compromise, but I don't...

    ZebraLight H502 XM-L

    I've pretty much decided on getting a flood light and your comments have got me much more confident and excited about getting one. Just have to decide between the h51fw and the h502!

    ZebraLight H502 XM-L

    Ironically, I was worried about the h51fw being too floody. Most of my lights are pretty throwy, sc51, fenix ld10, 20 and 40, so thats what im used to. Figured I'd go for something different this time so I'm not doubling up on what I already have, just in a slightly different form factor. I dont...

    ZebraLight H502 XM-L

    Dammit! Just as I finally decide on getting an H51fw, you guys go and throw a spanner in the works! I never really understood the difference between the functionality of the H51f range and the h501's. Can anyone tell me? I'm looking for a right angled light that i can clip to my jacket...

    Please help me decide...Zebralight SC51c or SC51w?

    I have an SC51 too and want to get a headlamp. I won't be using the headband as I want it for going out for a walk in the evening. I live near the beach and usually walk along the path beside it. It's rarely pitch black but it does get pretty dark and people often walk their dogs down there so I...

    New Zebralight 4 AA Q50!

    I think this one is definitely going on the Chirstmas list. I prefer AA lights and this seems to give the most bang for the buck. In have a sc51 which I love and while i wait for the Q50, i am considering getting an H51 for some hands free light while I'm out for a walk at night. I'll be...

    Zebralight H51f questions

    That's very true. I suppose since I have a few "regular" lights, it does make sense to get something a bit different rather than just duplicating what I already have. In this economic climate I don't have a heap of cash to spare and just don't want to waste the money on something that is of...

    Zebralight H51f questions

    I've been agonising over getting the H51w or the fw. I like to go out for a walk at night and usually take a small flashlight with me, especially in the winter months. The fw seems like an ideal candidate, but I fear that it might be just too floody. I usually have my fenix ld10, which I love...

    Fenix LD40 vs Jetbeam PA40

    I guess that's really what it comes down to, doesn't it - what is right for your needs and circumstances. I guess that's why there are so many heated debates on here and why we don't all have the same lights! A lot of people rave about the 4sevens lights, and I have no doubt that they are...

    Fenix LD40 vs Jetbeam PA40

    So given the choice of the two, you opted for the Fenix. That's pretty interesting. Can I ask why you went for it instead of the Jetbeam, given that on paper at least the jetbeam is more powerful?

    Fenix LD40 vs Jetbeam PA40

    Not terribly concerned about having carrier, although if you manage to damage it you are kinda friar tucked. The battery indicator is a handy feature, especially given that modern lights are electronically regulated to give constant output, but it's hardly a must have. Obviously the pictures of...
