My little girl is getting into flashlights and has now asked her old man for a pink one for Xmas. Does anyone have a clue where I can get one? I have tried all the local places with no luck. I really don't want to have to stoop to buying a junky toy light. Any Ideas? She is coming up on 4 years old so it needs to be moderately tough, but not overly fancy.

Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Where can I get a Pink flashlight?

I've seen a few pink ones at Wallyworld (My daughter likes to have a few flashlights as well)...I've seen pink Rayovac Lantern/Flashlights up front at the Flashlight Section near the check-out (most wally-world's are set-up fairly similiar), and I've seen a few pink AA Mini-Mags near the boating section (Around sproting goods, but not with the main flashlight area)...that would be the best place, if you don't want to order one on-line. Hope this helps!

Here's a sample of the AA Mini-Mag...pretty tough as well...

I've also seen bright pink mini-mags at WallyWorld. Drop in a Terralux LED and you'll have a really nice little gift!

I totally agree!! for 4 years old I think that a pink mini mag with a terralux LED dropin and push button switch would be awesome.

This Terralux LED http://www.batteryjunction.com/tle-5k2.html
and this is a push button switch(child freindly)

This kit is from Nite Ize and it is cheaper but still good, and you can even buy seperate LED modules for different colors. http://www.batteryjunction.com/niaamimaledt.html

good luck and best wishes for you and your daughter!!

tek-tite.com has some pink lights. They are plastic which I like better than the aluminum m*g's; and they are very tough and waterproof.

I saw a Hello Kitty flashlight in pink at Target where they keep all the other flashlights.

I just saw hot pink MiniMags at my local Walmart last night. If you want one and can't find them locally, let me know and I can pick one up for you.

Pink minimags are definitely the way to go
you could even look for the mjleds, and then you will have a pretty good light

A slightly more robust idea, maybe get a G2L and get a plastic primer, and a nice pink finish coat. About the best of both worlds, frilly colors, and superb light.

Is there such thing as pink heatshrink tubing? Would add to grip and durability as well, perhaps.

i wonder if automobile workshops would offer to custom spraypaint for some of my lights? :thinking:

i think any reliable LED lights like Inova T1 & X5T, Surefire E1L, Pelican M1 2310 will look striking in pink! :popcorn:

In my best Terry Jones falsetto, "It's got some pink in it."

I'd second the pink MiniMag + SMJ dropin suggestion.

That's perfect! I'm going to get a few for my wife and daughters for stocking stuffers.

Three issues I have to caution against:
1) Unless you get EMS shipping, it won't get there in time for Christmas
2) I have a silver and blue version, and they are DIM DIM DIM. A 5mm squeeze light is brighter at close range. They are not near 5watt.
3) Those bezel crenelations are sharp, and IMO very unsuitable for a 4 year old. First time she drops it you have a gouge in your floor, or worse, her foot.

I'd go for the pink MiniMag at WalMart for around $8
