Flashlights

[pechelman]

got quite the collection of flashlights
my favorites are, by far, the ones that have been developed by the enthusiast community on budgetlight forums and similar. Mostly these revolve around the toykeeper UI's but things like the Noctigon and Emisar lines like the Meteor 43 and D4V2. I also like the tiny single cell cr123 olights for throwing in a bag or something. Zebralight also makes some great flashlights. And not quite a flashlight, but also love the BLF Lantern.

It's been a few years since ive bought a light though so not sure what the new hot thing is, though in a quick search I see a lot of 21700 based lights compared to the 18650s which make up most of my collection.

Prometheus Lights BetaQRv3 - in brass and copper. Fantastic little lights🤌

My old Elzetta Bravo. This is a brand that’s fallen off but these old aluminum ones with potted electronics are nigh indestructible.

I have a couple Surefires. One is a 6P from about 10 years ago, the other I can't remember. Keep one in the car and one in my backpack.

I also have a huge Maglite in the house (ML300L), and a couple smaller ones (XL50) for power outages or just looking in the backyard at night.

Most used flashlights triple.
petzl - Actik; best all around use.
Lightweight and easy to use. Hanging at the frontdoor, because the whole family likes it.

Armytek - Wizard C2 WR; perfect red light for night walks with the dog. Love the fast magnetic charger and the versatile possibilities, especially with the eye-friendly red light. Ten years no hazel warranty…

LED Lenser P7; has seen many days in the alps. Living at the back door at the moment.

I have some olights. On my keychain is a i1R 2 and in my pocket a baton 3. Love these especially walking the dog and camping.

I’ve been looking at the Olights primarily for dog walking duties. Just bamboozled by the myriad of models and versions available…

[Dmart]

@Nocturama sorry for the crappy shot. I was wrong on the model, I have the S1R Baton 2 as my daily driver for the dogs. I don’t need more to find the poop and the dog. It serves me well since many years. Small and handy to clip anywhere but bright enough for regular duties.

I avoided this thread because I read it quickly as "fleshlights". I have a Nextorch TA30C it's spectacular! And for lighter duty, I have the Nextorch K3RT pen light, which is also amazing. Highly recommend!

Highly recommended, best flashlight I have ever owned !

Figured I'd throw one of my lights into this thread. It's what I carry most of the time.

The Reylight copper LANapple. It's using an XPL HI 6000K LED emitter and probably emits about 600 lumens.

I've been browsing the r/flashlights subreddit far too much for my own good.
