ok, I've been reading up on a number of different flashlights over the past week - learnt a lot too, largely down to this forum.
However of the many flashlights I've looked at online or read reviews of, very few seem to have the ability to go from a spot to a flood ability. The classic Maglites do, although in fairness the flood mode that represents a donut for the beam pattern is nigh on useless in my book.
But the YouTube vids of the the LED Lender flashlights (P7, MT7 type of thing) seem to be quite affective.
So my question is - are they? And if so, why don't more flashlights have this ability? And are there any negatives to having such a feature?
