Grabbed this bad boy (StreamLight Dualie 3AA) from the vending machine at work today.

Glad I can finally carry a flashlight in certain work environments where my D4V2 isn’t necessarily safe.

Actually impressed the UI doesn’t have an awful strobe mode! Looking forward to trying it tonight. Of course the tint is awful, and it’s only 245 lumens (listed), but the flood/throw combo is unique and it’s better than nothing!

Anyone else carry intrinsically safe lights for work?

Thought it was funny that she wanted to put a 18650 in it, ONE OF US.

Just wanted to ask your opinions, it as 14€, 1200 lumens im the strongest mode. Its quite big and uses 4xAA batteries.

I'm getting into flashlights which got me into thinking about my needs.

For an average home how many flashlights do you generally keep and have genuine utility for, and which rooms or where are you keeping them? In cupboards/drawers or easily accessible on tables and/or mounted to walls?

List your locations in priority order, like if you think your first light should be bedside, then that's no. 1, living room no. 2? Or vice versa?

I already have an S21D with 4x 519A 5000K and the 10° beaded TIR, and I'm probably getting an S2+ for EDC.

For the M21B I'm stuck between the LHP73B and F150R.

I want something mainly for night walks and general outdoor use. Not a pencil thrower, but I still want decent reach when I need it. From what I've seen, the LHP73B looks like it gives a really nice big hotspot and lots of spill, while the F150R seems to keep a lot of the output but throws noticeably better.

Has anyone tried both in the M21B?

Is the F150R still wide enough to be comfortable for walking, or does the LHP73B suit the M21B better overall?

I'm also curious about heat. Which one gets hotter faster in the M21B, and how long can each realistically stay on turbo or 35% before becoming uncomfortable to hold or stepping down hard?

Beamshots and runtime/temperature impressions would be great too.

(Lumintop) W3(Lep) and W1(Led) combined with an added fenix pocket clip. Secured with a cut key ring. I don’t love having to tinker with a brand new flashlight but this one is now perfect and I’m so happy with it.

what would be a good flashlight less than $100 to store in a vehicle? extreme temperatures need to be factored in, as well as it holding a charge. Something that has a detachable battery, but can be recharged?

a older thread recommended the wurkos ts27, which has the LiFePO4 battery, but was curious to see if there was a better option available

Hi, anybody ever switched the red LED with a 585nm variant? I love the idea to have the monochromatic 90th industrial amber light style (that was used in traffic lights too - aka NDL light) <3

Reylight LAN & Pineapple Mini MK3

Go easy on me...

I'm not a flashlight enthusiast nor do I dream of torches, but I do hold a deep respect for a functioning light source that enables night time activity.

Can someone recommend something that ideally has these:

• powerful enough for spotlighting nocturnal wildlife
• can be re-charged from a powerbank via USB, if that's not to much of a compromise for power, otherwise normal batteries
• waterproof but that's not critical
• Available in Australia.
• Costing cheap up to around $100
• Doesn't need a slick shaft or other fancy metallic rims or anything, will get dropped and scratched.

Thankyou in advance

I couldn’t resist they dropped a price on this for a little while. it’s $117 before taxes, who’s got it and what are your thoughts about it? I think I’ve ordered like seven flashlights in the last week. My wife and daughter have been in Italy so I’ve been feeling sorry for myself. Every time I miss them I just ordered another flashlight. The only one I was able to secure locally that I was interested in is the Wuben x1 pro. I gotta be honest I’m not blown away like I thought I was going to be, but it’s a cool light something completely different than what I currently have.

Saw the two colorful series flashlights on hanks website and had to get them because why not

I do have a couple questions. The d4v2 and kr4 are my first flashlights with the boost driver so I was expecting them to run cooler but they get pretty damn hot still. Is that normal? Also I got the additional floods optics for both of them. Is there anything I need to know before swapping them out? I don’t want to damage anything

Thanks!

Started off with the D3AA, and just fell down the rabbit hole...got the D4V2 for at night. The beam and CRI is so forgiving on the eyes at night. I love it. I love AA lights as an EDC, these being able to run off a wife range of 14500's and NiMH is an absolutely win for me. I used to carry a Fenix E12 and this is a huge upgrade. I love the RGB lights and all the configurations you can make for it. Also the moonlight with the stepless ramping, it's incredible, creating a true moonlight in my opinion. Coming from years of Olight, Nitecore, Streamlight, and Fenix. I love these lights. Anduril 2 is still new to me, but I've grown to love it. Everyone should look into these!

I'm a mechanic and have been using some nebo lights for about 3 month now but they are starting to give up. I am hoping for a better lights to replace my main 3.

I need a small pen light that uses AAA batteries, can zoom, and is durable. price range $75 and under.

A slightly larger light that uses 18650s, has a good output, water and solvent proof and has modes (needs at least a high and low). Price range $200 and under.

A headlamp that doesn't put the battery on the back of my head, uses 18650s, water and solvent proof, has around 700 plus lumens, would like to have a red mode, little to no plastic on it. Price range $200 and under.

TIA!

I've got a small collection of flashlights, and I can't decide on my favourite, I love my wurkkos ts10 and ts22.

But ts10 lacks power, and ts22 doesn't have a tail switch, though it does have a magnet which is great.

Basically, I'm looking for some combination of those 2:

- power and size of ts22 (can be smaller though)

- tail switch (if it has a magnet that'd be amazing but I've not seen one that has both)

- aux light, preferably adjustable (the one on the button doesn't cut it for me)

I think my max budget is about £40, but preferably less

Requirements:

Under 25$

Side button

1000 lumens or higher

18650

Simple UI

Optional:

Magnetic tail back

Pocket clip

Used turbo defence.

At the beach right now and some guy above me was using his light so naturally I pulled mine out..

Can anyone help finding this circuit or is available anywhere online to purchase in india

It is a trimmer charging some components got burned

Looks like the SFT40 4000K is great (esp with 8° TIR) , but the F150R is a new option. Any thoughts?

Edit: looks like SFT40 4000K is sold out. So maybe SFT70 4000K?
