UltraRunner
Newly Enlightened
I'm thinking ahead to Xmas and what flashlight to ask Santa for. I'm an ultra runner who does 100 mile races on trails so a great flashlight/headlamp is a must.
Been mulling over the Tektite EXPEDITION™ 1900. Waterproof, check. 12 hour full brightness burn time, check. Wrist lanyard in case I trip, check. I like the flood of light from the 19 bulbs also.
I currently use a Streamlight 7 led and like it except for it's burn time and brightness. (I also use a 4 LED moonlight headlamp)
So what is not to like about the Tektite? Is there something better, cheaper than the $119 price? Thoughts? I realize I have a very specfic need here. Thanks.
