    Seeking a budget red flashlight to use in the woods at night, for hiking and some stargazing.

    This makes a lot of sense! Thank you. Is there a good place to buy a filter that will arrive within a week? Also, is there a way to see which filters would fit these flashlights: Fenix PD40R V2.0 Flashlight - 3000 Lumens Elzetta Charlie C-343 Energizer Vision HD Performance Metal Lights I have...

    Seeking a budget red flashlight to use in the woods at night, for hiking and some stargazing.

    My 4 friends and I will be doing some amateur hiking and looking at some stars in Arizona, USA, next week. I'm looking for 5 flashlights that give off red lights. My EDC flashlights are ~$150 (Fenix) to ~$250 (Elzetta) each, but my friends have $5 to $10 flashlights they got at Walmart and...

    Recommend me a Red LED flashlight for stargazing

    I was going to buy it on AliExpress, but its slated delivery date is October 2nd, which is a bit late. We definitely need it by the end of September. Is there another site we can buy from with faster shipping but has approximately the same price? (I've purchased flashlights from AliExpress...

    Recommend me a Red LED flashlight for stargazing

    Thanks for the suggestions! We mostly need to use the flashlight with red light so we can walk in the woods from our car to the cliff to stargaze, and I don't think that penlight will give off enough light for us to trust our footing and to light our paths, unfortunately.

    Seeking the best 18650 batteries available on Amazon US store

    Hello. I know most 18650 batteries sold on Amazon are junk and there are much better places to buy these batteries. However, I'm in a hurry and need approximately 6 batteries delivered in the next 2 or 3 days, so Amazon seems to be my only choice (let me know if I'm wrong!). Can someone link me...

    Consensus on the best bike headlights? Please give me your top recommendations!

    Hello. I have spent too much time - in a good way! - in this forum reading about bike lights. Although I'd like to buy multiple lights to test and use, I just spent a lot of money on two new bikes and accessories, so I'd like to narrow down the dozens of recommendations I've seen in this forum...

    Need Sub-$50 Flashlight ASAP

    I ended up gong with the Fenix because it's a brand name the gift recipient has heard of before. The price difference is rather significant, so if the flashlight were just for myself, I could have ended up with the Streamlight.

    Need Sub-$50 Flashlight ASAP

    I'll be placing the order in about eight hours. Can someone let me know if the Eagletac would be a better buy than the Streamlight? I first heard of Eagletac years ago, but have not kept up to date with their flashlights and do not have any personal experience with them. Thanks.
