Thread: I need a new light.....

Ok...not really sure where the best section to post this was, but Tactical made the most sense to me. I'm in the market for a new all around flashlight. I'm tired of buying cheap rechargeable spotlights that never hold a charge, and are dead when you need them. I live on a farm out in the country, so I'm always needing a light that can get out there and light things up. I'm not really concerned about the $$$ if I can get what I'm looking for. Anybody got any ideas on a kick-butt flashlight????

I have one of these:

Stinger Series - PolyStinger DS LED | Streamlight

It stays in my GHB. Came with two chargers, so one for the house and I plan on hard wiring the other in my truck. It's a bright little b*stard.

I have a surefire G2 and man is it bright. Got it at a good price also.

Thanks for the responses guys. I've already had a few Poly-Stingers and they are good flashlights. I guess I should've been a little more descriptive on what I'm looking for. I basically need a good durable spotlight in a flashlight body! LOL!

Check out the Borealis here....Welcome to Black Bear Flashlights



The owner is a menber here, but I don't see him visit much.

Those are some amazing flashlights. I have a few surefire lights and thought those were the end all be all of handheld lights apperently I was wrong. I still love how small and powerful the surefire lights are. But those black bear lights are something else.

Borealis = badass

I have 3 stingers and 2 g2's. the stingers are brighter and cast more direct light

Thanks for the link Strycnine! I'll have to shoot them an email.

I bought a G2 LED model and upgraded the lamp to a 290 lumen and it's **** bright. Doesn't suck the batteries too bad either.

Bought it here:

TheFiringLine Forums

Home Depot has a Husky light that runs on 2 D batteries and puts out 200 lumens for $25, and it's built like a tank.

(I hate to give the b*stards that laid me off free advertising, but it's a good, cheap light.)
