Flashlight Enthusiast
Back in the early days when the Luxeon's (I probably spelled that wrong) ruled, it seemed like in order to get a really decent LED flashlight, you had to spend $200 and the like (Surefire, etc) and there were limited mainstream manufacturers. I myself bought a couple of McGizmo mods. Now there are a lot of mainstream flashlight manufacturers such as Nitecore, Olight, Fenix etc that offer a variety of lights, many in the $50-75 dollar range. It seems like their only real expensive offerings are the ones with multiple LEDs that produce thousands of lumens. But in exploring some flashlights suggested to me in another thread, it seems like there are still quite a few single LED flashlights that run upwards of $150-200 or more. So just curious, what does all that extra money get you these days?
