Hi,
I have one of those Power on Board 35w HIDs and they're a great light for longer range use. However they last an hour and sometimes I need light for longer than that. Carrying 2 of them or a second battery isn't really an option so I was wondering what a good backup light would be?
Main need would be throw/output out to about 100 metres so I'm guessing an LED light wouldn't be an option? Please don't shoot me LED people as I haven't bought an incan for years for use at ranges under 50 metres so I'm sold on them normally
I know LEDs can throw to 100 metres now but do they still have a usable spot?
Next is runtime... I would like the longest runtime possible. Hours would be nice if possible.
Finally size would preferably be no begger than a 3 C cell mag.
Price of around US$ 100 I guess.. less would be better but if someone found the "perfect" light I'm dumb enough to pay twice that
Anyway I am considering the light below...
- Ultrafire Torch x1
- Ultrafire 18650 Rapid Charger x1 (AC100v-240v 50-60Hz Worldwide voltage) with NZ plug
- Ultrafire Protected 18650 3.7v 2400mAh batteries x2
Does anyone know the runtime for the above?
Thanks for any advice/info offered.
Cheers,
PB.
