Need portable high output spot light.

The 6D one is even better.

In what way? It has lower candela, and lower lumens. What am I missing here?

Thank you everyone, I just bought a Malkoff Hound dog.

Thank you everyone, I just bought a Malkoff Hound dog.

I don't think you will ever regret that purchase. Congratulations on supporting a quality US manufacturer and business!

 

[letschat7]

Yeah Malkoff stuff is really nice.

I thought they were scaled up? I guess I'lkl have to get a 4D LED next.

 

[letschat7]

Holy crap that 4D really does have higher specs topping out at over 1k lumens. The 6D I have already seems pretty bright. I'd use it more if I wasn't scared of alkaleaks. I've been kicking over buying some Ansmann or Tenergy rechargable D's for it.

Thank you everyone, I just bought a Malkoff Hound dog.

Congrats. I think you will be pleased. Did you get the one that takes two 18650s?

 

[lentuk]

No just the regular Hound dog with One 18650, if this one cant do the trick I will get the Malkoff Super.

 

[Monocrom]

Thank you everyone, I just bought a Malkoff Hound dog.

Nice! Good choice.

 

[lumen aeternum]

I live out in the sticks on 15 acres, last night two vehicles came way out on my dirt road, parked in front of my house about 30 feet away and started yelling at each other, road rage, or marital dispute, what ever it was it got ugly.
I grabbed what I thought was my most powerful LED and tried to see what was going on but my light would not light them up.
I ended up yelling at them 4 or 5 times to leave the property and they finally left.

I have not been here on the forum for many years, other interests, can someone please recommend a spot or something I can light people up with on my property? My budget is whatever it takes.

You need a weaponlight for your shotgun.

 

[lentuk]

I do have one, It has a Malkoff M61 conversion but I was not ready to point it at them at that point.

They shipped quick!

Acebeam K65GT vs Malkoff Hound Dog (for size)

Haven't turned it on yet but I'll do a double beam-shot for comparison soon...

The Acebeam looks like it might make a good mace.

 

[lentuk]

Please post the beam shot, glad I bought the Hound Dog though, that Acebeam is huge!

Handle too short for that.

Oh, I've seen much bigger.

 

[IMA SOL MAN]

"Cheater bar" add-on.

 

[letschat7]

Oh, I've seen much bigger.

This sounds like what the girls at work say.

Just a killer light, no other way to describe it.
= you do need buttontop 18650s' for it =

Nice beast at 3000 lumens on eco mode. When I go to pro mode for 6000 lumens it trips my button top batteries. Had to order new better high drain button tops. Flat-tops as you said too short...

Wish there was a way to charge carrier without taking the batteries in and out of carrier (non magnetic).

Consider yourself lucky to own one, it's genuinely a special light. Not multi emitter, no super wide reflector.
What you have is a 16V deep reflector light that pushes a SBT90.2 to a place it was meant
