    Techlite - Lumen Master 200 (Costco)

    I have bought the 150 lumen versions and have had no problems with them. I keep them in my hurricane kits and store the batteries separately. They have been beat up, thrown in swimming pools and dropped down a stair well. They still work. Let me know if you can find a better light for $5...

    "I had a flashlight but it was dead"paraphrased quote George Zimmerman

    Sorry, this is tantamount to voodoo and fortune telling. Zimmerman has every right to get out of the car. He has every right to be in that public space. He has every right to walk down the street unmolested. He has every right to help suppress crime in his neighborhood and so should you...

    "I had a flashlight but it was dead"paraphrased quote George Zimmerman

    +1 on this. I live in FL and the SYG law is not a license to kill and these problems are very infrequent. Retreating in the face of peril does not work. Think of it in the reverse. At what point in time is NOT retreating satisfactory? Some one breaks into your house, you try to retreat...

    A great old friend, and the wear it's recieved!

    Call ZebraLight. Explain the issue and that you are not experiencing it on your other light and see if they will replace it. Unless you feel emotionally attached to it.

    Cheap reliable light to keep at the office?

    I have these and never have a problem with these lights and don't notice any parasitic drain.

    Cheap reliable light to keep at the office?

    Go to Costco and pick up the blister pack of 3 150 lumen tactical lights. I have them and they are great for this.

    I also run 18650's. Long life and never a problem.

    Send it back and make them fix it.

    Flashlight reliability

    I will stick some rechargeables in them to get a sense for how long they will last for general usage. I may dunk them in a barrel of water to test. Additionally I will attach them to my shotgun and run some courses with them using high brass. If it survives that then I am generally good to...

    Pride in your EDC Light

    +1 on this. EDC to me is very important. 1st it can save your life plain and simple. If you don't have it on you or in your bag (I.e., a good light, multi-tool, paracord, firearm, etc..) you could be in deep trouble. 2nd there is a quality of life issue here. Your EDC is what you use...

    FOURSEVENS Maelstrom X7 Review

    Really nice job! I have the G5 and it is a great light with incredible throw. I will say that the UI is clunky, somewhat imprecise and often a bother to use for a tactical light. That not withstanding i am glad I own it and 4sevens really backs their gear.

    Newbie: Just how dangerous are 18650s?

    +1 on this. Get a multimeter? Maybe.. Buy good batteries and charger? Always a good idea. Batteries blowing up in your flashlight and fire? Never seen or heard of it ever. Neither in the LEO/Tactical communities that are very light dependent or on the news or any place else. Could it...

    Law enforcement duty belt, what do you carry?

    I have a Fenix TA20. It is one heavy duty light and keep it on my rifle.
