    Zanflare F2

    So i recently bought this light, Zanflare F2, and tested it out at night for the first time. I can believe how impressive the beam distance is. It said it had a 200 meter beam distance, but states the candela is 2630, so its hard to believe which is true. But if the candela is correct, id be...

    Streamlight Protac 2aa tailcap

    So i recently bought a Zanflare f2 2aa flashlight. It works good, but it doesnt have a momentary on/off function. It appears to be a similar to the Streamlight protac 2aa. I dont own a protac 2aa, but I was thinking of buying a protac 2aa tailcap. Im wondering if the protac 2aa tailcap will...

    Coast HX5

    This one is just called Coast HX5. Hows the beam distance with your light. Is it any good outdoors? Like if you lost something and had to look for it. The 14500 is supposed to greatly increase its output.

    Coast HX5

    Has anyone ever tried the new coast hx5. I just found out about this light and it runs on a 14500 battery. I was planning on getting a lumintop tool 2.0 AA that has a high brightness of 650 lumens on a 14500 battery. They are both similar in price so im not sure which one to get.

    Are 2aa lights good anymore?

    So for those of you who carry a light with a twisty to turn on, how hard is it to turn it on one handed? I never considered flashlights with a twisty for edc just because id figured it would be too much of a pain to turn on one handed. Do you also use the twisty flashlights for tactical...

    Are 2aa lights good anymore?

    I was really looking at the protac 2aa, but the main reason why I havent bought it is because of the price. I have a protac hl-x and a scorpion led that have been great. Do you mind explaining what issues you've had? What about the nitecore 2aa? I know thats around $30, but does anyone have any...

    Are 2aa lights good anymore?

    So I have been looking at buying a 2aa flashlight just because I dont have a good led flashlight that takes aa batteries. I dont know how much Ill use this light as I mostly just use 18650 flashlights. Ive been looking at the streamlight protac 2aa, which is around $40. But, im not sure I want...

    Minimum beam distance

    If you need a flashlight for distance, do you have a minimum beam distance/ candela that you would require? Would you say 150 meters is sufficient? Or would you go with a flashlight that has 300+ meter beam distance?

    Does candela always have a relation to beam distance?

    So Im looking at the Zanflare f2 light. It runs on 2aa and states it has 200 lumens on high and states it has a 200 meter beam distance. It states the candela is 2630. Now that doesnt make sense to me. I thought candela always had a direct relation to beam distance. I have a flashlight with...

    Streamlight protac 2aa 250 lumens

    So I currently use a streamlight protac hl-x as my primary light, but Im looking for a back up light that takes aa batteries. Im looking at the streamlight protac 2aa, which is 250 lumens with a beam distance of 130 meters. I would use this protac 2aa in the woods and outside at night. My...
