I need a light other than G2

I would like a light under 6 inches with more throw than a pelican m6(which I have). My price range is under $50. Thanks.

Re: I need a light

surefire g2 nitrolon with a p61 lamp assembly hope that helps

Cheapo, when you find such a light please let us know.

I thought the Peli was the longest throwing light of this class (2x123)./ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon3.gif

Ok, what is wrong with the Pelican anyway?

OK, how about Brinkman Maxfire?

$19.99 at Wallyworld

If you're OK w/ plastic: per flashlightreviews.com, Bright Star Responder 4AA & Princeton Tec Surge out-throw the Peli. Also, maybe a UK 4AA with 4 watt lamp from brightguy.com? All would have advantage of cheap AAs rather than CR123s.

I had an M-6 and just couldn't get used to 1 hr. runtime on 2 CR123s, so I no longer have it. Am optimistic about the SL Strion on its way this week, but it's over your $50 limit. BTW, I haven't owned the 1st 3 I suggested above, just read about them. But, if you buy one, please post your impressions!

P.S. Didn't even consider your 6" length limit. Don't recall dimensions on these guys, but brightguy lists those.

What is wrong with the G2? I mean, do you have something against Surefire? Or plastic?

The 4AA Responder is supposed to have excellent throw and is a hair over 6". The Princeton Tec Surge has great throw and CRAZY total output. Again, just a hair over 6" but really bulky being an 8xAA light and a much better beam than the Responder.

Really, the M6 has great throw for a light of its size. The Streamlight TL-3 has better throw but is longer than 6".

I order pentagonlight and still waiting to get it. 70 lumens with 60 minutes runtime is very interesting and also price 60-70 dollar is very nice.

A Streamlight TL-3 will be brighter and out throw the PM6, but with 3 cells instead of 2. The bezel is a little larger as well. You could probably find one on the internet or e-bay around your $50 price range. Check out some reviews at flashlightreviews.com /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

130+lms, ~60 minutes runtime, <70 $ = Streamlight TL3! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/happy14.gif
