I've been shopping around for a new flashlight, and after coming across some reviews here, I was hoping to solicit your help.
I need a flashlight that is...
- $30 or less, up to $50 if it's REALLY worth it
- at least white and red lights (I'm in the Navy, I need red for night use)
- uses common batteries like AA (compatible with rechargeable)
- pocket size, light weight
- clip preferable (for attaching to a ballcap as a head light), but not a deal-killer
The only ones I've been able to find so far, like the S&W Galaxy 13 and Coleman Max use three AAA, which according to some threads here is a bad thing because it starts to loose brightness very soon. Is this really a serious issue?
Thanks for your help!
