Does anyone have (or collect) old elbow style flashlights? I have my dad's boy scout flashlight from the mid-1940's, an elbow light in dark khaki green. It is a 2-D cell light and is about as bright as a candle compared to the LED light I carry on my keychain today. I see Fenix has a modern one, MC11. What about it?

Welcome to CPF, pinhead56 :)

Your father's green angle-head light was probably a Fulton. There are lots of threads about it, such as this one.

There are other angle-head lights around, such as the Tomahawk series; and although not strictly angle-head, Zebralight headlamps emit light at a 90deg angle to the body axis.
