Hello,
I am a police officer with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). I would like to have your input on a suitable replacement for my Mag Light 3 D Cells.
Essentially I need the following:
1. Durability. The flashlight I would like to have must be durable enough to be used as a weapon yet will still light up if used in such a fashion.
2. Very bright and good throw. For searching bush and long distances. Ideally I would also like it to be a blinding light.
3. Water resistant.
4. Between 8-12 inches long.
5. Heavy.
6. Long run time. For extended search periods.
Have I missed anyting? Probably. Please remind me if I have.
Essentially, what I need is a bright, long lasting durable flashlight. I thought I would post in the LED forums because I am assuming that an LED flashlight would be less likely to fail than an incadescent bulb if it were to be used as a striking tool.
Thank you for all those who replied to me already when I mentioned this topic in a previous post. I hope that some of you knowledgeable people can provide some insight.
Please post any links to sites or information you may have.
Thank you.
