Flashlight thread
Years ago Rick posted up the ultimate flashlight thread. What affordable lights are y'all using now. I had several of the lights Rick recommended. Used them for hunting and running and loved them but the last couple I bought weren't made as well.

Re: Flashlight thread
I stumbled upon a brand called Nebo and purchased the "Slyde" version. Compact size, about 8", LED, but a surprisingly bright, tight spot beam and the unit slides open for second center LED that is a work/flood light. Strong magnet in the base for a helping hand while you work. I was so impressed that I bought another. $25-29 range. I'll buy another the next time I see a sale. Time to replace the mag-lites in the truck and nightstand and the toolbox and the wifes car and really everywhere.
As an aside, I bought two LED bulb replacements (19.99) for two and three cell Mag-Lites. They work well, much brighter, extend the battery life, but they don't make the flashlight any smaller, still large and clunky.
I would just as well have the Nebo for a few extra dollars.

Them ducks is wary. We now resume our regularly scheduled forum melee in progress.

Re: Flashlight thread
I bought this one a few weeks ago. I painted it and replaced the straps... can't have a girly looking flashlight.

I also bought extra batteries and an external charger. It has been good so far and is super bright.
