Flashaholics - Fall In Here

[CatEYE]

As a beginner that have not buy any torch which of the above you will recomend for me
to buy regardless of size & runtime.
Thank for your help

Maybe a FENIX "Super Combo"

Of cos now... the newer "PD20-Q5" instead of the "P2D-Q5"

& available for PD20 & PD30 series... the special stainless-steel tail-cap...

400 lumens is bright but because its LED, its gonna produce a lot of spill light and not much throw.

unless u have good reflectors.

the light i have above is also ard 400 lumens

Even my "1000 lumens" is still "floody" ("combining" multiple LEDs/Dies in one config)...
In fact u need BIGGY reflector to give u the :cheergal: :bsmilie:

i have played around at macritchie and all sorts of insects are attracted to the light so much so that it creeps me out. but i guess its attracted to the UV portion of the light.

my suggestion is bring mosquito coils and insect repellant.
ridsect or shieldtox? - not realli sure coz these might damage the wild life.

Most probably we will go to MacRitchie in Jan, I will post the outing here & PM you when the time come.

Depends on what you like, thrower or flooder and your budget.

to start with Fenix models are good, you can ask cateye for recommendations. If you have more fund then Surefires'.

oh, nice. hope to be free for outing.

Surefire good oni for US folks, international customers dun get same treatment. not when a tailcap costs above SGD$50. selected models from Streamlight, Inova, Pelican, Princeton Tec & Fenix are good too. just need to know own preferance. & must know where sell cheaper.

http://www.inova-mil.com/ (same company as Inova but diff product line)
