First things first. YOU GUYS ARE EVIL! Oh my God, i just wanted a Flashlight, never heard of things like lumen, Throw, Flood, etc.. and now im surfing through sites of Zebras, Fenixes, Eagletacs ands JetBeams There should be a warning when entering the site like "May cause addiction".
To my search. A while ago i bought a Maglite because i thought its a known brand and it sure is good. But i think "quite useless" points it best. To the lights:
The absolute small and light one:
Price Range: <100$
Length: I don't care. Just small and tiny.
Width: I don't care. Just small and tiny.
Throw vs Flood: Definitively Flood (Reading in the dark)
Runtime: min. 2 hours.
Durability: Not Important
Switch Type: Slide or Click or ?. No momentary switch.
Importance Queue: Size, Output, Runtime
The Minimag style, usual one:
Price Range: <150$
Width: I prefer a long narrow light for outer arm pocket.
Length: max. 6 inch.
Throw vs Flood: balanced tending a tad bit to flood (walking in the forest)
Runtime: min. 2 hours.
Durability: Very Important
Switch Type: Slide or Click or ?. No momentary switch.
Importance Queue: Output, Durability, Runtime, Lenght
Most important of course is, that it should be buyable through the internet. I thank everyone for helping and hope that Stasikoff soon starts "selling" his MC-E :naughty:
