I do really like this one that BLightsam gave:
http://dx.com/p/sterops-sfb-8t-cree-q5-3-mode-160-lumen-white-led-flashlight-with-strap-1-aa-50079
could anyone note on its performance in comparison to a nebu redline?
Amazon has a couple of long reviews — the first 2 reviews and many comments — of Nebo Redline:
http://www.amazon.com/Nebo-Redline-Tactical-Flashlight-5581/dp/B0049M8I22
Gave up on reading them just by looking at the length of the reviews.
I greatly appreciate everyone’s input and help. This website is really awesome and of all the forums I have seen this has been by far the most active and informative on anything I have found from vehicles to news or home improvement. You guys truly rock. I have decided that unless I hear otherwise from multiple suggestions on any one given light I am going to purchase the ultrafire 1600LM that I had posted in the link at the very beginning of the article. I will purchase it on this thursday as well as the model 112 ultrafire case. I will purchase them on this thursday 12-6 and it may take a while to arrive from china but when it does come in I will gladly put a review on here for this light. When I do place a review does anyone know if it is ok to place it on here or in another section on this forum? Thank You Again!
I would post your review in a separate thread.
Enjoy the flashlight.
That seems a bit pricey for what you get. Q5 emitter is nothin too great.
Same with that Redline. There are much better buys for around $30.
$30 can get you a sweet XinTD XM-L C8 from intl outdoor.

This is a great light. Highly recommended by many. Fit n finish and driver are excellent. I love mine with 100/30/5 modes. No strobes! Yay! 
It’s an 18650 cell light, but don’t let that scare you off. It’s much more light for your money than the two you linked. The lumen ratings listed are actually legit too. (Not like those 1600 imaginary chinese lumens…)
If that one doesn’t do it for you, and you want to stay with more common cells [don’t wuss out on us! lol] maybe consider a Balder SE1 or Jetbeam BA10? Both are very solid for the money.
