Hey Guys,
Well I have decided to buy my first LED, I have always been an incandesent guy for the power and throw, just recieved my Thor 10 million yesterday from Cabellas! God that thing is awesome! Was out on my front porch ligthing up the sides of houses almost a half mile away last night! Anyway back to the LED question, while the Thor is awesome it is also impractical for the night dog walks and I don't like burning my Surefire or Mag 2 C Mod for extended periods. Also my wife likes to walk with the flashlight on constantly to light her path so we're talking a half hour to 45 minutes at a time , I only fire up when I need to flash a car, other dog or find out what my dog is trying to eat or sniff. LED came to mind because of the longer battery/bulb life, what would be the best LED for me for under 50 bucks and a cheaper LED for her for around 20. I saw a no name 7led 2X123 model at batterystation.com for 17.00 would that be a good choice for a woman who does'nt appreciate the beauty of flashlights!? Also I thought of rechargeables, are there any decent rechargeables out there for under 50 bucks? Thanks to all
