Hello,
I've been looking through these forums quite awhile now, and am looking for a decent "first" flashlight. I don't have any specific requirements or use for it, I will mostly use it for camping though. I want something that has a lot of light for the money, and therefore my searches have led me to the QIII and ft-01. What would you guys recommend between these two? There are so many postings on both, and pretty much everythign said about them is good so I don't know what to get. I remember seeing 1 comparison shot, and if I remember correctly the ft-01 (T-bin) was a bit brighter. any opinions on them regarding brightness?
Iv'e also briefly glanced at cheaper options, such as the "elly" from fifthunit (9$ shipped). It seems nice since it runs on AA's, but it only has 20 lumens as compared to the ft-01's >50. However, never owning such a powerful led flashlight, it is hard to determine exactly what the difference in lighting is. Is the difference major?
But anyways yea, it would be alot of help if you guys could give me some opinions on them. Thanks!
