from times to times i see in the news police in USA using long (maybe 6 or seven AAs) flashlights vith a 4-5 cm head.could someone tell me what light is that?
More likely they are Li-Ion rechargables or CR123-powered lights. (CR123s are slightly fatter than AAs, and much shorter. Very popular for powering high-end lights like Surefires.)
I have never seen anything longer than a 3xAA light - Any more AAs and then it's always at least 2 strings of AAs side-by-side.
I can't help but feel UltraStinger fits the shape description - the camera adds ten pounds, so while the officers would look fatter, the flashlights would appear to be thinner.
Does anyone know if this light is still being sold by Cold Steel or retailers? I just checked the Cold Steel website, and didn't see it there. Looks like a very interesting light, kind of like the ASP batonlight.
I am surprised that no one at cpf has a brute flashlight. I'd love to read a review of one.
PS: Wow, I just did 3 or 4 different google searches for this flashlight, and got nada, so you know it must be rare. I think it would be quite a trophy for a serious collector.
