    is there any benefits to gas or keroscenne laterns?.

    Long run time; surf fishing at night on the beach they can provide light for hours as you rebait hooks, remove the catch and re-rig lines if something big busts you off.

    [Review] Imalent MS18 100,000 Lumens (brightest in the world)

    Best Flashlight Brand

    "Quality fit for purpose" is a phrase that comes to mind. Hence "best flashlight brand" is a somewhat relative term and i have had some useful Dorcy brand flashlights that were good value for money such as their "Flashlight of the Future" 1 watt Luxeon Star model which pumped out more light...
