"Good questions but in the wrong area of the forums. This is the section where people ask for used lights they want to buy from other members. You might be better asking this question in the "general flashlight" section."
Ok, sorry.
"Since this is more of a discussion thread than a buy thread we will move it. You may post a WTB thread in the appropriate forum after you have made your decision.

Thank you.
"Make sure to say what battery type you want to use. AAA, AA, or lithium CR123A."
I don't know, something rechargeable would be nice. are li-polys safe?
"How bright do you want to go? "
I would like a flame thrower, but a longer runtime is more important for my edc.
"Do you want variable multi-level output?"
variable is nice but not necessary.
"Do you want a Made in USA?"
Yes! or Canada would be ok. Something made by a CPF'er would be a bonus!
"solid metal high quality last a lifetime sort of light?"
Exactly. ti is nice
"Do you want it to give light for 10-20 hours on 1AA battery so if you're trapped in rubble it will be useful?"
yea. but still bright enough to be functional.
"Or a super bright light that will die after 2 hours?"
"Do you want to freak out people with Mega brightness?"
I plan on getting a light like this, but not for my edc.
"You have to specify what you need and want!"
I hope this helps.
