Most valuable flashlight

Hello.

I’m about to buy a new flashligt and was wondering what the most valuable flashlight is today. Is it the srk, or are there any new worthy models out there? Right now i’m leaning to buy a srk.

I’m from sweden, so my next question is where to buy the srk cheapest and know you will get a good example?

I read you thread! I will follow it to see if you post any measures!

As far as the tailcap… Im not worried about it… Rdrfronty just posted some tailcap reading on that other post.

Most valueable?

I think he means most economical / bang for your buck.

Exactly! I will place a order at Fasttech today. Thanks for the answers.

dale i think you should buy one and review :slight_smile: (xm18)

Very nice budget friendly light…and don’t forget to use the ‘BLF’ discount code!

The SRK is very bright it’s priced right from Fast Tech no matter which one you get you will like be impressed. However, that doesn’t mean it’s the best light. There are others that are better. It doesn’t even mean it’s the best light for the price.

It really depends on what you are looking for. For instance are you looking for something that is comfortable to carry on long walks and throws a beam a long way. If so the SRK isn’t for you. It’s not really very comfortable to carry because of it’s odd size, it doesn’t throw very far and it gets very hot very fast.

It’s perfect if you just want to go outside and light up your backyard for a minuet or so. You hit the button and poof your back yard is all lit up.

Do you want something that is bright, throws a long way, and is comfortable to carry without getting too hot? If that is what you are looking for than you might want something more like a Small Sun ZY-T08. Or for a pocket size a C8.

Honestly it really all depends on what YOU really want out of a light. Are you looking for one light or are you willing to buy two or even three or more?

I would suggest letting us know how much you want to spend and what you want out of the light. Also tell us if this is a one time purchase or if next month you are going to buy another light. If you are going to end up with a few lights I would suggest a good one from each category rather than one that does them all just ok.

I have no idea how that link got there NEVERMIND! DUH MOMENT!!

18sixfifty is right. It is easy to get caught up in the moment! Determine what your needs are and then buy the SRK…just kiddin’…

I bought right around 50 lights before buying a SRK…. LOL

Thank you everybody for your answers, i’m very impressed how nice you treat new members. Today i own two “Ebay zoomable xml t-6”,
i bought them for like 9$ each just to have something in my car.
But now i want something a little-bit brighter to have at our cottage(google translate H) ), so i can walk in the snow at night etc.
But in the future(most probably) i will buy me some more flashlights.
It’s like when i first bought aux lights with 55w halogen for my car, today i run at total 400w xenon.

Best regards from Sweden

vikkew,

You should have seen how they treated the guy just before you….

JUST KIDDING :)!!

Dont forget your goggles if shining an srk in the snow :slight_smile:

Hahahahahah!
Is Fasttech site working for you guys, its messed up on my comupter! NVM, my ip is listed at projecthoneypot, so it messes up sometimes

It seems to be working for me.

I would say buy a SRK for sure then, it will definitely light up the snow and the price is really good on it too.

Hi,

Why would your IP be listed at project honeypot? That doesn’t sound like a good thing?

My isp uses dynamic ip’s for a whole city almost. So my ip-adress is being used by alot of people. So it’s been registred as a “ghosting-ip” i have been told. My isp is working on a solution for me. It will be fun to see how long time it will take :slight_smile:
