    If Maglite was a car?....

    The Surefires are pocketable and you can get the crenelated bezels for them. Not sure how else to make a pocketable flashlight double as a rescue tool other than the bezel for smashing things. There are also tons of accessories for them like holsters, gun mounts etc.. very tactical if need be...

    Just want to let everyone know that my dad loves his new G2X pro Surefire. We were already using it a lot around the house and checking for oil leaks under the cars etc.. great light! The polymer handle is great and light is super bright. I also like how the bezel is not completely round, it is...

    EDC for dog walking.

    Sounds like you are considering a small light however for dog walking I would prefer a big maglite. It doubles as a club in case of danger arises such as other animals trying to fight your dog etc..

    First Surefire?

    I just ordered the surefire G2X Pro. I like the size, simplicity, and the non aluminum handle. Haven't received it yet but I think I will be pleased!

    Thanks for everyone's help. I ended up buying the surfire G2X pro in forest green from batteryjunction.com. Also bought a box of 12 surefire batteries to go with it. Should be good to go as a present! Thanks again!

    Thank you everyone for the recommendations. I over think everything I know, but it is kind of fun to pick out this light. It is for my dad so I can always help him get batteries if need be. I like the PA40 or the Surefire G2X pro because of the battery life and the non aluminum body. I...

    This G2X Pro looks like a great light. Maybe I should go with that one instead of the PA40 since it is smaller. Uses different type of batteries but I dont think that is a big deal. Any thoughts on where I should purchase? I live in California and need it to arrive in time for Christmas. Thank you.

    Anyone know the best place to buy the Jetbeam PA40? I don't recognize any of the places I found on the web. Thanks. The PA40 also looks to be the same light as the TerraLux Colorado. Cool light but the grey with black head is not so appealing.

    Wow that website is amazing! Thank you for sharing the link. I have looked at most of the 4 x AA lights on there and leaning towards the Jetbeam PA40 still. It has the XM-L T6 and I prefer the newer XM-L2 however the T6 should be fine and might be floodier which would be good for working in the...

    Thank you for the great input. The Jetbeam PA40 is a rather nice light. This is the one I am currently leaning towards. Looks like a rugged light with a strong beam. I was also looking at the Coast HP7 that Costco is selling but the PA40 looks like a bit better light. Coast also makes the...

    I looked up that 26650 battery and it looks like a pretty badass battery. I like it, however, that involves getting a charger set up for the battery. I saw on Amazon that a lot of lights include the charging gear which is cool. Just not sure what one to go with. The bright and durable ones all...

    Do you guys have any preference to a 1 - D cell flashlight compared to a 4-AA? What battery configuration do you prefer in a small flashlight?

    Hello, I will probably buy online. Budget is up to $60 or $70, preferably less. I do not have a criteria for decent battery life so 24 hours sounds good if you think that is decent. Other types of batteries are ok, just would like to keep the light small and bright. Thanks!
