Hey guys,
First, thanks for being up to date and passionate on the subject. I have been browsing threads and this forum is knowledgeable!
My scenario is; I need a quality light, that has excellent waterproofing. It needs to fit in my wader pouch that is 8"x8" (10" diagonally)
I need the light to hit tule patches roughly 500+ yards. I'm thinking the light needs to output a minimum of 1000 lumens and be capable of 5hrs. (not continuously, just not reduced output)
One thing I do run across is fog. Sometimes its patchy and low lying, sometimes its like being in a cloud. Scatter is an issue with my current light, but I was reading on here beam angle helps with refraction?
I think I need protected batteries? I'm not big on maintenance, so typically I might use the light on Saturday, and recharge six days later the night before I use it again. I'm saying this because I know nothing about the new batteries.
I do know I want a quality battery. I did read that the SkyRc3000 is a great charger?
Looking for a good set up, I know nothing.
My budget is around $200-250
A few lights I checked out were:
Olightx7
K70
Thank you for the help!
