I’m not Vash but I know a little about flashlights. Fenix, LED Lenser, Streamlight and Pelican are good lights. Surefire makes great lights also but super expensive.

I'm not a Vash either, but Fenix are powerful, well built and reliable. Combined with Panasonic batteries.

Fenix has sales and they also have a discount program when you sign up or something. I like their lights - no idea if best, etc. but are good.

Banned but not out, yet..

Glad you found one.
Harbor Freight sells a tactical light for cheap where you can focus down the beam or make it pretty wide. It is freakin bright with warnings to not shine in youror others eyes due to eye damage. Not good in a home with children, but works for me.

....then I looked up the Olight M2R
OK....I'm back. This light would perfect...but I don't like the width of the light beam...I want something that throws out a narrow beam....would be OK with less light...trade-off if necessary. I want to "reach out" 100' & spot eyes without widely illuminating Sherwood Forrest. Any other suggestions....or has it already been suggested earlier? Gash, Vash, or Bozo....one of you clowns knows the answer ![]() Thanks all! |

Energizer PMZH61... seriously..
100' is pretty easy for most flashlights if you're just trying to shine eyes.
