Hey Guys
I've done a fair bit of reading on here and have yet to find what I'm looking for hence the thread. I am a volunteer fire fighter and the Chief knowing I'm a bit of a gear guy asked if I would research and recommend some hand held lights primarily for search and rescue. The lights I keep seeing recommended have one common problem which is batteries you have to manage in some way. What I need is a light that you put on a dock on the truck and forget about till next time. We have good scene lights what I'm looking for is handheld search and rescue. Budget is a consideration because we need to buy 6-8 so that each team could have a light. We already have helmet lights and TIC's in our masks so these are not primarily for structure fires but for larger area searches. The main light on my mind now would be the olight r50 seeker but I'm concerned that it would not have enough throw. Thanks for your help.
