LED Flashlights - Who Makes The Best One

[bsaint]

How bright does it need to be? I have a stinger ds and sometimes its too bright.

When I diagnose bad tracers on old equipment is the only time I need something so bright my eyes hurt.

I use a Fenix LD20
I honestly wouldn't trade it for a Surefire that costs 2-3x as much, mainly because it uses standard AA batteries.

It's small (I keep it in my pocket), lightweight, bright (205 lumen), and really well made.

+1 on this flashlight.

Well being in the military, we tested the Sure fire light before it went public I believe. The SF lights are great, picanny rail mounted, helmet mounted or simply in your hand. A lil pricey but well worth it. As agreed with an earlier poster, they will chew through lithium batteries. If you only use it at work it shouldn't be a problem. Alot of companies now are making so the sky is the limit.

2 "specialty" lights (good quality, not too expensive if you shop around on the 'net)

41-2498 25 Lumens - 4AA LED Floating - Got a boat ? Get one of these ! Not the brightest, but has "rubber" coated head so it can take banging around, is waterproof and IT FLOATS !

Streamlight ProPolyner 4AA LED - Every car should have one.
