i would have my little red sofirn C01R and my Ozark Trail OT-50L, those would be the ONLY one i could have.
I don’t think I have ever had just one flashlight.
Impossible.
One is none, two is one.
Headlamps are not flashlights. Now we have 2. 
We can have all the headlamps we want, only the number of flashlights was restricted 
Blf A6 with LH351D 4000k emitter. I’ve tried and tried to find something better but I simply can’t
ok.
here it is.
my 1 and only 1 dedicated flashlight.
i have had this kind for many, many years
and it has never failed or broken due to abuse.
it just might survive the zombie apocalypse.
Better said.
Ha!!! Awesome choice! Funny, as I have one of those stashed in my “get home” bag loaded with e-gizer lithium primaries. Just pulled it out the other day for a function check. Capable little lamp for sure.
Of the lights I currently own, the Skilhunt H04RC. The beam and tint are perfect for me. It’s also very lightweight.
My RRT01 with 219b is very close. I just need to find the right TIR to change the beam from spot to flood and it will be perfect for me. If I could get a beam shape like the Skilhunt it would be perfect. The size, UI, power, and weight is all on point. The only weakness is the cell with in-built charging uses micro-USB, wish it was a C-type charging port. If I could switch that and the optic it will be spot on.
Doesn’t get much love but I might go with Nitecore EC11 small enough for easy EDC but I can have direct to white or red light both at hand.
agree with SC64w HI
Fireflies E12R
Or for the same money you could have 2 Wurkkos TS21’s and a few batteries.
Because 2 is 1 for real.
Probably a Fireflies Nov-MU in 4500k. Throw is cool and all, but when it comes down to it, pure flood is the most useful thing for most situations in which I’m going to use a flashlight. The color rendering, tint, efficiency, and magnetic tail are icings on the cake.
Has to be under $100? Emisar D4V2 Vn W2.
Convoy M1
Mateminco MT04 (Astrolux EA01s) with SST40 @ 5000k. This light has enough flood and throw for 99% of situations and it’s quite sustainable due the efficient emitters. If you have one light, I think it makes sense to have USB charging as well.
The MT04 is precisely the light I’m bringing on a roadtrip in a month.
Honorable mentions include the Jin Heng JKK21700 with SFT40 and Sofirn IF22A.
Prometheus Delta Nichia 219C 5k.
Convoy M21B with GT-FC40. Probably my most well-rounded light.
i USE only one light 99% of the time
FW3A
i HAVE 40-leven others
others that i use sometimes
