Flashlights

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!

I recently picked up a super duper bright Olight Warrior 3S
Highly recommended, best flashlight I have ever owned !

[Giles]

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.

The last month or so I’ve gotten back into the flashlight game.
About a month ago I grabbed a Okluma dc0 and dc1 in TI, they are getting finished up now for delivery in the next month or so for both hopefully.
In the meantime I grabbed a few different TI CWF lights a peanut, micro clic and mini click. After that I got a both bronze and copper DC0. I really like the 14500 size light.

Here’s the group photo. I really like the Okluma’s and can’t wait for my pre orders

I've had this flashlight for a long time, and it's just wonderful. I got it from Best Made Co. and it looks like it's made by Maelstrom.

@Dmart - thanks for the Olight guidance, and, inspired by @Giles, I eventually landed on the Baton 4 Kit, which has been (as you suggested) perfect for ‘dog cake’ illumination - as well as other slightly less mundane tasks.

[Dmart]

@Nocturama nice!

Best Made Co

Very nice.
Looks like it's not available anymore.

Calling all flashlight experts.

I'm after a green (or possibly blue) lazer pointer.

Our birding guide in Costa Rica had one and it was remarkable how easy it was to spot the dot even in bright daylight.

I want one for birding and also for one on the boat, it will make pointing out specific things to people so much easier. Either I am utterly useless at describing where something is, or I am surrounded by people who are thick. I suspect it is the former

Any recommendations?
