Durable LED flashlight

[Grun]

Aside from Surefire, are there other fairly bright, around 100 lumen LED flashlights that are durable (shock resistant, long life, water resistant), but less thant $50?

Fenix,

check out Fenixstore.com

for about 50 dollars, some more some less, I love mine and it works as good as my surefires.

Also consider the Inova lineup.... They might not use the latest/best LED generation, but they are definitely durable and many are very nicely priced.

Streamlight also has a good reputation - some models ( PolyPro ) are popular for industrial use - but most of the PolyPro are a bit less throw on paper than you want - they also have some other ones that are nylon and resistant to water.

Another Fenix recommendation. I have dropped mine on concrete, asphalt and ceramic tile - Not only do they continue to work, but you can't even see any evidence of them having been dropped. They are VERY rugged lights.

I have a Fenix, and they seem good.

For another light, should I go Wolf-Eyes 6MAX, or the Surefire 6PL/G2L?

 

[Dr.K]

Surefire should always be an option IMO.

 

[Grun]

yeah surefire is an option as well
how are the incandescents?

I will second the Inova line, tough as nails, I have beat the H*** out of mine and they come back asking for more.

how are the incandescents?

Some of the best on the market, but how are you going to use the light? An LED may be better.

Get a Cree based TerraLUX for a MiniMag, 100Lu and cheap total package.
