muggle light

So someone at work sought me out due to my rumored flashlight addiction…

Seems someone was lurking behind his house in the woods and his home depot light wasn’t good enough…

I am letting him play with the q8 and GT (for laughs)… he didn’t seemed fazed by spending $75-$100 to get into it (light batts charger)…
So I figure a Q8 might be great or perhaps even an Emisar D1s … The D1s might be best for punch AND heat sinking……
BLF A6 entered my mind as well… Just trying to think what would be good for an average guy and decent 100 meter throw…
I know with 100 meters a lot of lights go that far, but how much light Is there down range…

thoughts?
Thanks
Tony

Q8 is just such a great light…

I know… It’ll depend on whether he likes the form factor…

A light like the Q8 with a massive, blinding amount of lumens & flood is a great security/muggle light. My Q8 (and DX80) resides on my night table for those reasons.)

convoy c8? or s2+ ? cost like 20$ or so and anyone can have use for those. for someone that dont wanna spend much then lights that run on a single 18650 would be ideal imo. Q8 can be handy too but some can consider it too bulky and heavy…

a c8 with xpl emitter can throw quite good for a cheap buck…
