![]() ![]() I have various lights from Nitecore, LED Lenser, Surefire, Streamlight, Olight, and Zebra light. I love flashlights and have since I was a little kid. I think I'd look at what SureFire or Streamlight offers that's similar if you want something that small. I'll bet they are highly engineered, but it concerns me that the electronics are not potted and the lumens are well below 200 (and very expensive, too). ShoreGuy, I looked at the web page for Muyshondt. There is a place for those, but not for a bedside light to be used to confront goblins! geez!) so that you have to cycle through pushes on the tailcap to get what you want. ![]() I dislike flashlights with too many features (SOS, strobe, 5 levels of brightness, red, green, etc. They, also, offer some no-nonsense tailcaps. I like their two videos explaining the difference between lumens and candelas. Like that it is modular so I bought a Bravo body (2 cell - 650 lumens) with the pocket clip so I can reconfigure it if I like. Got a Charlie (3 cell - 900 lumens) bedside. May not be undisputed but a doggone great light! Now, the undisputed king of the world when it comes to quality flashlights is Elzetta. You can spend hours watching this stuff if you like flashlights. They have a great channel on YouTube demonstrating the capabilities of the flashlights but also discussing details about aluminum alloys, lumens vs candela, heat management mechanisms, etc. Even the ones you think of "top of the line". I'm telling you, once you buy an Elzetta Flashlight, every other brand will feel like chinese made crap. Here's a classic video testing the level of water-proof - how many "top of the line" flashlights can do this? ![]() You can see them repeatedly throwing them against concrete or solid steel manhole covers, shooting them with 12ga shotguns, running them over with large SUVs, and even throwing them from a helicopter into a concrete floor.the concrete floor suffered some damages but the Elzetta was just fine. I own multiple Alphas, Bravos, and Charlies, in multiple configurations, and I have given a few as gifts as well.Įlzettas are 100% made in the USA, built like a tank, and essentially indestructible.there are many videos of people trying to "break" an Elzetta flashlight on YouTube, they are great. I bought my first Elzetta Flashlight as a Father's Day gift a few years ago and I think that over the years I have bought around 10 of them. SureFire are decently tough and better built than the Klarus flashlights in my opinion. Yes, it is super bright at 1,000+ lumens but to achieve that they push the limits outside of the recommended safety boundaries of the internal parts, especially the batteries.Įvery single keychange in this house has a SureFire Sidekick and I have several SureFire X300Ultra flashlights mounted on pistols. Last year I bought a Klarus XT11 to see what the fuss is about and I wasn't super impressed. I have several - I think I've tried most of the "best" brands in the market. ![]()
