(not sure if this is the correct forum, but...) My father has set me to this task:
He had a 2xAA flashlight that looked like a black mini-m@g that instead had a push button on the side (not tail) and had a push/pull (telescoping head) such that if you pulled the shroud around the head out, you got white light that could be focused, and if you pushed it in it pushed a red tube down so you got a red filter. He used it when he was flying and other things, but recently gave it away to a soldier in Iraq who needed a light.
Presuming of course that he could just get me to find another one, he then contacted me so I could find another and send it to him. Of course, I think he's had this light for almost 10 years so I don't know where I can find it now. He liked the ability to change the color without adding a filter cover and he does not want a $50 LED light that you change the active LED. Basically, he wants me to find him the same mini-m@g light like device. I figure by now, probably there's a CHICOM clone out there or it's still being sold by a pilot shop or surplus store, but I don't know who is the supposed manufacturer or distributor...
Can anyone point me (and thus him) in the correct direction?
Thanks!
