40+ flashlights have come into my hands and been given away or sold over the last 12 months and even though I have lights worth 3 to 8 times as much, the RC-G2 has always been my go to light for nearly all of my needs.
The RC-G2 feels like a solid chunk of steel and is very fitting to the hand, and it does what it needs to do. There is no messing around when it comes to the RC-G2, 1 click and you have light for 100 meters, another click will send a 20+ kilometre beam of darkness through the night.
The heft gives it a feel of a more premium light, the throw from a single AA is nearly unmatched and unlike other expensive lights you don’t mind getting dirty with it under the car or just leaving it laying around where as others I feel they are “too good to use”.
I have smaller lights, bigger lights, way more powerful lights, lights with multiple modes yet this has seen the most use out of all of my others combined.
It’s not my favourite yet I am drawn to it nearly every time, maybe its just the simple on/off, or the way it seems to perfectly form to the hand, perhaps the way it lights up everything you need it to without being overkill, or maybe because it feels like it could shatter diamonds… whatever it is, it cant be explained.
I would like to thank/blame jacktheclipper for my first RC-G2 purchase, and my second and third and fourth and fifth RC-G2 purchases as well.
OK now to the point of this, I noticed I was near 1000 posts and though what could I give away, what’s a good light that hopefully people wont throw a in a draw and leave it there for years? Then it was clear to me what it would be.
To enter just write why you would like to own one, it can be short or long or realistic or creative, it doesn’t matter.
The winner will be drawn using random.org around the time of my 1000th post or perhaps sooner if my posts are too slow. The light will be bought and shipped directly from DX.
Goodluck to everyone who enters.
