Hello everyone,
This is my first post to Candle power. I am a member of quite allot of knife forums and try to get back to responses quickly although I have a girl who demands my time and I cant sit at the computer long as I have a back injury.
My name is Chris and I have recently moved to BC Canada from England. I am addicted to survival anything and any spare money goes to my camping equipment and allot of knives
My question is I recently purchased a Coast LED lenser v2. I had not really researched flashlights and I am not really impressed with the output compared to my cop friends rechargable torch of the same size. Is the coast v2 not particularly a good one ?
Allot of people on the blade forums think the FENIX L2D is the way to go. What I am after is a compact torch that I can strap to my belt, one without a flared head and one that takes either AA or AAA. I am not really bothered on how the light casts but like the sound of ones with variable outputs.
I was wondering also if you guys knew of a AA torch with 3 batteries in a triangle set up ? As far as I can tell this would be allot more powerful than my 3 AAA in triangle. One preferably with variable outputs as well ?
If these dont exist I think the FENIX L2D is the best of 2 AA flashlights as I have been told. I was just reading a couple of threads on here and it seams there are a few models of the L2D, is the Q5 the best ? I got advised on the rebel LED but on the main site it has been discontinued due to problems with it.
Any help would be great, thanks guys.
