Hey guys-
Looking for a simple work light. I work in a nuclear plant and need something for spotting valve numbers, looking in dark places, etc.
I'm currently using a Fenix E21, but would like something a little smaller and with a pocket clip.
Here's my sheet.
1) How would you prefer to purchase the light? I will be mail-ordering or buying online, so this doesn't matter.
2) Budget: Less than $100.
3) Format: I want a flashlight.
4) Flashlight-specific format/size: Every day carry medium (4-7 inches).
5) Emitter/Light source: LED (known for efficiency, longevity, and compactness)
6) Manufacturer: I want to buy a light from a traditional mass producing manufacturer that is ready to go out of the box.
7) What battery type do you want to use?
____I intend to use alkaline batteries or rechargeable nickel chemistry (NiCad, NiMH, NiZn)
8) How much genuine out the front (OTF) light do you want/need? I want to walk around an unlit rural area (50-150 lumens).
9) Throw vs. Flood: Between 5 and 20 yards
10) Runtime: 90-120 minutes (Runtime is moderately important, but still not critical)
11) Durability/Usage: Slightly Important. I will live in my pocket, but I may be crawling around on the ground, over pipes, etc.
12) Switch Type and location: Clicky - forward or verse, not picky. Don't want a twist.
13) User Interface (UI) and mode selection. I don't care.
14) Material/Finish/Coating: I don't care.
