Hello to everyone!I have been browsing through topics here in this forum for quite a while,and I wanted to ask you a question..I am an aircraft engineer,I work on Boeing 737s,and I was always looking for a decent flashlight,it is essential for our work..First I had a couple of maglite 3D`s for 6 years.After I got sick of the stupid yellowish light they project,and the bulbs failing all the time,I had a nuwai TM-801X3 led flashlight from Amondo Tech which lasted only 10 months :thumbsdow..I still search for a flashlight,not a giant lantern,something that uses a led(which lasts many years),is brighter(or very brighter..) than a maglite 3D so I can do easy and relaxed walk-around aircraft inspections,uses strictly 2,3,or maximum 4 "D" size batteries or be a rechargeable flashlight,can be used for more than 8 hrs contineously for maintenance tasks,and can handle some abuse..I am thinking about getting two of the new K2 led bulbs from Diamond and get them to work on a 3D maglite that I still have(and serviced in the local mag dealer 3 times..)..So,dear friends and fellow aviation engineers if present here,what is your opinions and comments?I would appreciate it..
