    Looking for a full sized LED 4000K flashlight

    The $100 was there originally. I don't see any point in going higher, because a complete new LED Mag-lite kit is $82, if I'm willing to work with the bluish light output. 643 lumens may not be ideal, but is adequate.

    No. I've got a Black Belt. :-)

    Looking for a full sized LED 4000K flashlight

    I just replied to one of the above replies, hit the send button, and it said the server was busy and dumped everything that I'd written. I was saying that I'm a senior, barely paying the bills, and with no retirement plan either, so a $995 flashlight is way out of the question. Anyway, thanks...

    Looking for a full sized LED 4000K flashlight

    Nah, but have fun if you want to explore it for yourself. :party: I suspect that this is why police like what they call full sized "law enforcement" flashlights. Because they can hold them under the arm, just like I do. It's simple, does the trick and doesn't require any head bands, miner's...

    Filters can also attenuate the lumens. Thanks.

    Looking for a full sized LED 4000K flashlight

    Yeah, it looks like, if I want a FULL sized rechargeable LED flashlight with dock, I'll have to go with the Maglite RL1019, and just deal with the bluish white color temp. Thanks guys!

    I looked on Amazon and didn't see them. I looked at their site, and they're not even dock rechargeable. Thanks anyway.

    Looking for a full sized LED 4000K flashlight

    Thanks Peter, but I do night work, where I have to find addresses and knock on doors at night. I've been using the old halogen Mag-lite since 2006, but want something with more lumens, the same size, but lighter, and in around 4000K, which is pure white.

    Looking for a full sized LED 4000K flashlight

    I've been looking for a quality reliable full sized LED flashlight. All the well-recommended LED flashlights seem to be only 4" long. I want to replace my old halogen Mag-lite, with something lighter and more lumens ( NOT having to switch to "Turbo", but on high setting? Maybe 1100 lm? ) , but...

    Full size LED 4000k flashlight

    I'm missing the "sticky". I've been looking for a full sized LED flashlight, myself, which was how I eventually found this thread. All the well-recommended LED flashlights seem to be only 4" long. I want to replace my old halogen Mag-lite, with something lighter and more lumens, but 4000K and...

    House lighting fixtures - do any come with open wiring and no ballast, for LED usage?

    Does anyone know if there are sites that sell led fixtures with open wiring, so you can pick tubes and just wire the fixture for them, instead of having to buy a ballast fixture and cut the ballast out? I've had some interesting successes with home lighting conversions ( see...

    Best color temperature for outdoor flood lights?

    I just tried replying to this and got told that my token expired, whatever THAT is! WTF! SO now I have to type this all over, because it deleted everything I'd just typed! I had to try again 3 times since and reloading the page didn't work - I had to close it completely, then find the forum...

    Best color temperature for outdoor flood lights?

    We're getting ready to replace everything anyway, and change from incandescent to LED, so that's not relevant now. One relevant thing is that I heard that yellow provides better vision at night, because it bends around surfaces. Another relevant thing is that 2700K is yellowish white ( they...

    Best color temperature for outdoor flood lights?

    I've been using some 5w LED bug lights on the porch, which put out about the same lumens as a 40w incandescent, so they say. The lighting is adequate for walking to the front door, but I want to really light up the area with LED flood lights. I don't see a color temperature listed for the LED...
