All I wanted was an LED flashlight for an upcoming kayak trip. Eventually my research for the right light took me here and after about 3 days of reading I'm now ADDICTED! I ended up buying two flashlights but I want more... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/help.gif
I never realized how many types there were and just how cool they are (nor that they're so popular). I mean, I've always gotten a little chuckle from flashlights and I really had some fun with my new LED headlamp on the kayak trip last year but, man, there are some wicked lookin torches out there and I want em!
Anyway, thought I'd just say hello and I'll be back with some questions, I'm sure.
BTW, I bought the Ultra-G from countycomm which I plan to wear around my neck on the trip (where can I get a nice lanyard for it?). And I also bought a PaLight which I'll attach to my PFD in case I get sucked out to sea (I've come close before) or wreck on a rocky island.
And now I've got my eye on a Streamlight Twin-Task for the longer range stuff with the Xenon mode. Unless someone has a better idea. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif I want something smallish, long life batteries/bulbs, water-resistant, but I want to be able to blast a nice beam with it.
Thanks!
