Hi everyone!
I'm really new to the whole flashlight community and market. But I'm looking for a good "beginner flashlight" so to say! My birthday is really soon and I'd like to invest in a really good flashlight, preferably within the a price range of 0-230 dollars. I'd really like a compact flashlight so it can with in my pocket for casual carry. I'm new to terms like "throw" and "flood" which I've seen a lot around here. It doesn't need to light up ridiculous distances ahead of me, but also decent. It would be awesome if it were really bright too, since I'll be in the forest a lot.
I've looked at the Olight R50 Seeker but someone said that the turbo output only lasted them 2minutes.
"-full power or turbo mode (2500 lumens) only last 2 minutes than switches to 800 lumens"
I've been looking at the Klarus G20 or XT11GT too! They both look good.
Anyways, I would really appreciate some help by you guys in choosing my first ever flashlight. Thanks a lot.
Please excuse me if this is the wrong sub forum to post this thread or something like that
