Need new light - help!

Bought a Dorcy 220 LED several months ago. Wanted a rechargable, bright light for hunting use. Well, after getting the light, was tickled to death with the cost vs performance. That is, until i got it wet. Long story short, game over for the Dorcy. Now, I need/want another light with the same brightness but more with ruggedness - meaning at a minimum being waterproof. Can you guys provide any suggestions? Want a good, bright light (200 lumen minimum) without breaking the bank.

Thought I had found a super light, but in all honesty, if a light isnt waterproof, it really isnt much.... Thanks for any help.

I just got the fenix TK11, Awesome light that meets your criteria, was $54 on amazon, but price went back up.

There is many lights in the 200+ lumen range can you be more specific about price, battery options, size, throw or flood.

have a look at the Eagletac, there are some great lights just coming out 380 lumens out the front, these are on my wishlist.

Also if you want a small pocketable CR123 have a look at the Nitecore Extreme, 200 lumens max.

Or you could spend about double those 2 lights and get Novatac and upgrade the emitter to a K2, one of the most rugged lights made alongside HDS/RA.

Lots of options, take your time reading and researching and you will find a great torch.

thanks for the replies guys. as far as more detail on what i'm looking, $100 max, preferrably rechargable, and the more throw the better (think i used this term correctly - basically, i want to be able to use it like a spotlight when running a boat before light if needed - my dorcy did this well before it went swimming..)

Only 150 lumen but the TK20 is a tank. I have several lights The tk20 is one of my favorites, but it is mainly a thrower. If I had to pick a light as a survival light this is it. Pick up some eneloops and charger and you are set. It has some good heft to it.

This should serve you well great throw good price the second link is the battery and charger combo. Add the $6 kit and you get a nice holster and lanyard, this is one of my favorite lights and I have much more expensive lights.
