Hay im brand-new to this forum and not experienced with torches at all so sorry for any ignorance i display!
I have a Mag-LED 3D i keep in my flat at university and i love it! But back home i have an old incandescent 5D Mag-lite and its a bit useless; very large, dull and low burn time. So i wanted to replace it and i thought i'd just get another Mag-LED maybe a 2 cell.
But having a look around a torch site I noticed that super powerful hand sized torches aren't as expensive as i thought they were. So i noticed the LED Lenser T7, which i can get for just under 40 quid, and thought it looked really good - small, bright, long burn, multiple modes.
But after reading some stuff on here it seems that Lensers might have some probs which worry me - particularly rapid power drop off after initial use (which i know is part and parcel of alkaline cells) and limited effective burn time.
So i was wondering if anyone had any opinions on wither or not i should get the Lenser T7 or better if anyone has recommendations on something better and available online in the UK for around £45 or less.
Thanks
