    Best emergency "mass" giveaway lights?

    Hi, great thread, humanitarian line of work and initiative here. 1xAAA: from all the lights I´ve used over time the simple, sturdy and budget Tank 007 E09, waterproof to 2m, 3-modes twisty just crystallized as something that is always with me, disregarding what else I carry. It´s barely bigger...

    Compact, one 18650 powered with decient CRI and color temp

    Hi and welcome. Priced at under $50 the most "bang for the buck" in a slim package with fine moonlight to 1050 lm turbo there is the Thrunite TN12 - 2014 with a NW T6 emitter instead of the XML2...

    Looking for an all purpose flashlight

    Farm, fields, woods, no lights, no windows: In my opinion You will be best served with a 2x18650 Fenix TK35 allrounder. It´s not the smallest but it´s got excellent runtimes because of the 2 rechargeables, a lot of range and punch when needed and it´s good for using indoors. Because it´s smooth...

    Thrunite TN12 2014 (XM-L2, 1x18650, 2xCR123A/RCR) Review: BEAMSHOTS, RUNTIME, VIDEO+

    Not a direct answer to Your question but as it gets quite hot on max-max I always step it down to max except for some short bursts, visibly the difference is really minor and it saves battery-life. My general verdict would be it´s an amazing light for what it costs but in direct comparison I...

    Zoomable beam for camping and hiking, multi-mode, long battery life!

    High and welcome. Since 18650-powered led lights are available instead of "zooming in" I just "power-up" almost endlessly and to see the slightest details in the bush. Generally speaking for the purposes You envisage I would take a serious look at the allrounder with 2x18650 or 4x123 Fenix TK35...

    The most reliable torches

    For drop and waterproof + reliability the Olight Warrior M-20X. I think it´s indestructible and just rely on it. Anyway I do have equally good experiences with several other solidly operating lights like Fenix TK30 (coating maybe a bit less resistant on this but that's just for the looks) and...

    New arrival and instant favourite. This Nitecore SRT5 is so well thought through and adaptable to different situations that I want to call it perfect. Really fascinated how well its grip is and on a surface it never rolls, really stable with tailstand ability. Overall impressive functions and...

    New to this world!

    Hi and welcome. This will be nice to discover and own some really good new flashlights. To keep it simple I would suggest getting an eneloop charger and 4 (8) Eneloop batteries for all AA purposes as well as a basic but good 18650 battery charger (mine is from Cytac) with 4 x 3.100 mah 18650...

    Good old Fenix TK30 twisty-twisty-twisty 630 lumens thrower. Got very used to this one and it´s output spacing is handy, love it in the short version like pictured. Has always been reliable and has come around quite a bit this one:

    What lights do you carry in your car?

    Hi again, for AA and AAA batteries its just the eneloops and the respective charger. Well worth having them and forget about Duracells and battery costs in general. The Eneloop charger is a dedicated one You buy with the first pack. For single 18650´s lights (as long as they are not very hard...

    What lights do you carry in your car?

    Hi quaileggs, waiting for the experts to chime in, but I wouldn´t want to leave that "bomb" in the car if it gets too hot. 4x18650 is a lot (be sure to have the same batteries, new and from a quality brand, not Ultrafire) and I wouldn´t trust the Ultrafire either (I have them and use them but...
