Wrist Lights

Besides the over priced Surefires, does anyone know of any decent wrist lights?

Some Armytek’s headlamps come with wrist strap.

Mecarmy CPL- I have one and its pretty good but battery replacement is fiddly.

I’m surprised at the small amount of interest. You would think there would be a market for a quality wrist mounted light.

I don’t think that I’d ever use a wrist mounted light. I want the light to be where I’m looking and to be steady, not moving all over the place with my wrist.

You could make a wrist light with a Convoy S2+ and some Duct Tape.

Exactly. And I think why the lack of popularity.

Just strap any flashlight to your wrist. Thank me later

Unno. I’d rather aim my head to light up what I’m looking at, vs aiming my forearm.

Well to each his own I guess, I just find most headlamps to be very uncomfortable.

Sure I could tape something to my arm, but…

Speaking as a K9 handler though, there are times when my wrist is the perfect spot for my light, even if it’s only for a few minutes.

I have a glove with an Olight I1R glued to each finger. I am the Freddy Kruger of convenient lighting.

In all seriousness - Use a nylon watch strap with velcro and use the pocket clip on a light like the S1R or Thrunite T1 to attach it. Plenty of light and options if you need to remove it quickly.

something like this watch strap.

Wellp, they got ’em on Star Track…

That's the one where they look for Luke Skywalker!

spudley112 · 2019-11-14T01:02:36.000Z

Yeah…I remember that one. They would have found Luke if the Daleks had not kept shooing at them.

Neelix stole the Doctor’s Sonic Flashlight…

BLF GT and some Duct Tape!

One good blast from an Acebeam K75 would wipe out the EMH doctor.
