I'm looking at Fenix too.

Streamlight/Surefure are my first guess, but I know 0 about flashlights. I have had the same maglight for a long time.

Man I love me some flashlights! Why did I ever open this thread. I KNEW better...

What say you oh guru of the flashlight.





BTW.....as a side note. I always thought the term 'flashlight' was inaccurate. Unless it has a strobe funciton, It never really flashes. I always thought 'Durabeam' was a better term.

Even my headlamps are Fenix. Good stuff. I've never had an issue after using them, so I stick with something I can trust.

And jet skis should have been called boatercycles. But such is life.
