Hey folks
I'm in desperate need for some good advice ….:sigh:
I'm a flashaholic just like the rest of you… but kinda out of the loop since my MTE P7 900 lumen flashlight….
Everyone at my work loves this light, and a few went and got the same one.
Well the glass lens busted and I need a new light…
PLUS I need to have the best flashlight at work….ha-ha
Not looking to spend the money on a HID, I have a cheap-o 24w HID and not to impressed.
IM LOOKING FOR THE BEST LED FLASHLIGHT I CAN GET( AROUND $200+/- )………BUT GONNA NEED YOUR GUYS EXPERANCE TO GUIDE ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION…
I'm looking for :
LOTS OF LUMENS +++++
MUST HAVE GOOD THROW ……LESS SPLASH
GOOD = BATT. LIFE/ RUN TIME
AND SIZE
I'm sure that's what most people are looking for but these are a few I'm looking at
Elektro Lumens EDC-P7
UlraFire RL-2088 18W Osram*6 LED 1200LM</SPAN>
UltraFire WF-1300L SSC-U2*7 LED 1300LM
Are any of these worth the money and what im looking for???
Also the RL-2088 comes in 18W ...... and I seen a 15W ???

18w = 1200 lumen but 180min run time
15w = 1300 lumen but 60min run time
Does anyone know the difference????
Sorry to bother you folks with my problems, but I kinda need help with this one sooooo many led's out there my head is spinning
THANKS !!!!

I'm not trying to disuade you from buying a new light, but I have an MTE P7 and was looking at spare lenses on DX. They have some that look like they'd fit (33mm) in packs of 10 for about $3 if you'd like to fix it as a spare.

Edit: Looks like the lens is actually 34mm, but 33mm would probably still work.

You may want to edit your title to reflect that you want the "brightest" and not the "best"

:thumbsup: the brightest ≠ the best.
For $200,you can get one 35W HID flashlight,which is brighter than all the led lights you mentioned. I have no idea what exactly do u want? Brightest Led light with long runtime? It really hard to find one. For 1000-1500 lumen led lights,lasting for 1 hour is just enough, i think.

Based on what you have indicated I'd say that the Jetbeam M1-X or Eagletac M2X or Sunlite 16W are all lights that you could consider.

I would read reviews on these lights (which are readily available in the Reviews Section) to aid your decision
