I need a light that isn't too heavy to carry in the woods for 2 hours

Hi EmerryJones,

for disc golf, I would suggest the Lumintop GT Mini. It is not very heavy and the battery will allow you to finish your disc golf game.
If you only need 10m wide you can set the flashlight in medium intensity giving you huge more than 2h battery.

Here you can see a review we made. It is in Spanish but google translate is your friend here :slight_smile:

Lumintop GT Mini Review

Good luck with the disc golf.

Instead of tripod and clamp, a ricepack will do.

I have one sice ages, works for lights as for cameras.

Easy to DIY.

Although a little heavy as someone said, I too would recommend the Convoy M3-C because of it’s steady out put for several hours. You need the mass for heat regulation. The XPH 70,.2 emitter sounds about right for a combo of throw and spill.

Thanks, i knew the M1 first generation was 18650 since i had two of them, its good to bear in mind that the M21B is the 21700 version.
I would highly recommend this light, its bright, the beam has an excellent balance of throw and spill and even if you use an 18650 battery now you can upgrade to 21700 for more runtime.
Its simply one of the best all purpose lights there is.

lol whats that ?

EC4GT, still available if you look.

2×18650, throw comparable to a C8, rock-solid high output from just-charged to completely spent, best heat dissipation I’ve ever seen in a handheld light.

Flat grip, so will sit on a rock and not roll off, too.

E07x Pro, buck driver lets it save a lot of power (or put out 1000+ lumens for an hour or two), has magnet in tailcap, 100m shouldn’t be an issue even with SST20 4000k but on that max brightness you’d need a spare batt or two. if you’re not running it at max, you should get 2-8 hours no problem.

If you need throw, T9R or T1R (latter not released)

just about anything else will probably have a crappy linear driver or awful LED, or be even more expensive

A lot of identical interest in nighttime frisbee golf, I guess. :laughing:

i’m in georgia, an FW3A works fine for me
light, small, bright, couple hours on medium lumens
pattern is moderately floody, i find it very useful

lumintop EDC18 might be just as good

Lyrics
I left my home in Norfolk, Virginia
California on my mind
I straddled that Greyhound and rode him into Raleigh
And on across Caroline

We had motor trouble that turned into a struggle
Halfway across Alabam’
Well, that ’hound broke down and left us all stranded
In downtown Birmingham

Right away I bought me a through train ticket
Right across Mississippi clean
I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham
Smokin’ into New Orleans

==what’s the song!?

as zoulas posted, there are lots of choices
and some would be much cheaper per unit.

how about buying 3 different ones which
cost ~$100USD combined and using
the one light you like best?

please understand, this advice comes from
someone who uses that logic to buy more.

Third vote for the Convoy M3-C. I use a 3000k tint for my nightly walks in/near the forest.
I like it so much I got a 5000k tint incoming for times I decide to walk the urban areas.

yup

Saw the Dead do it a few times.

A bag full of rice. Nah, it’s probably plastic, dunno. More commonly known as bean bag.
