Howdy,
I was hoping yall could recommend me a nice flashlight for in my pickup. Thanks. Currently i have a big heavy mag lite but I am looking for something lighter and smaller.
Thank you
1) How would you prefer to purchase the light?
Internet
2) Budget: An easy question, but you may change your mind after answering the rest! :-)
Less Than 150
3) Format:
I want a flashlight.
4) Flashlight-specific format/size:
I don’t care.
5) Emitter/Light source:
LED (known for efficiency, longevity, and compactness)
6) Manufacturer:
I want to buy a light from a traditional mass producing manufacturer that is ready to go out of the box.
7) What battery type do you want to use?
_I intend to use lithium primary batteries (CR123, CR2, Energizer Advanced/Ultimate Lithium AA/AAA)
8) How much genuine out the front (OTF) light do you want/need? Sometimes you can have too much light (trying to read up close up with a 100 lumen light is impossible).
I want to walk around an unlit rural area (50-150 lumens).
9) Throw vs. Flood: At what distance will you be most likely to use this light? Select all that apply.
Used in emergency around a truck but also to investigate things around the farm so could be long distance or short.
10) Runtime: Not over-inflated manufacturer runtime claims, but usable brightness measured from first activation to 50% with new batteries (Measured on maximum output).
____90-120 minutes (Runtime is moderately important, but still not critical)
11) Durability/Usage: Generally the old phrase “you get what you pay for” is very accurate for flashlights.
____Very Important (Camping, Backpacking, Car Glove-box).
12) Switch Type and location (choose all that apply):
____I don’t know.
13) User Interface (UI) and mode selection. Select all that apply.
Strobe with high and low light levels
14)Material/Finish/Coating
____I don’t care.
15) Special Needs/extras: Is there anything else you want or need that hasn't been mentioned? Select any below.
