lookin 4 a good flashlight
I am in the market for a good flashlight to walk during the dark hours to from stand. I have a green led cap light i use to close in on my spot, but i need a bright light to help me find my way. I am looking to spend up to $75.

What do yo need a bright light for? In any case go to wal mart and buy any flashlight you would like, then just use a colored(red) handkerchief to cover the light and you will have a bright light with a red tint.

There are many LED headlamps out there that have several settings and colors.
For instance my headlamp has a long distance spot light setting, a flood light setting and then a setting for red light. It's worked well for me. I've never felt that i needed more light that this provides |
For a headlight I use the Princeton Tec Quad...
For a flashlight I use a Coast LED that costs about $45 from Lowe's Hardware...This light uses 3 AAA batteries and the beam can be adjusted so you don't get blinded when tracking... An added advantage, both of these make blood glow, like the Coldman lanterns we used to use when tracking... |
It is nice now that there are plentiful LED lights out there that if you want BIG light you are no longer struck using flashlights that require 2, 3 or even 4 of those 123 batteries which are about $9-10 a piece and when the batteries go dead they do so quickly that most guys thing their bulb burned out.
There is no "best flashlight" IMO. But I don't think you need to spend more than $20 for a really nice LED light. Many use very common and reasonably priced AA or AAA batteries and can really throw some light. |
flashlight
Task Force 3-Watt LED Flashlight $30 bucks for Lowe's kicks out alot of light for the money.
For a small light, I use an LED nite ize bulb and 2 AA maglite. |
what you need
go on candlepowerforums.com buy a fenix p2d and order two of aw cr123 batteries with a wf139 charger <-------- important junk batteries arent worth buying this setup is bright as HEL$ 130 lumen bright +- much brighter than my 5 d cell mag light and will run for quite a while and is no bigger than you index finger should all cost you about 70 bucks and nothing personal but mini mags are out dated junk
|
again
pm me if you have anymore questions im kinda a flashligght junkie
|
We used surefire flashlights over seas there a little pricey but well worth it, and can mount to your weapons for night hunts
|
I am partial to the maglight. I have 4 of them, and they are great.
