Flashlights!!!

[theledwarehouse]

Looks like a new Surefire pricing change coming at the end of the month..... New dealer price will be 10% less than the Surefire website. (Example. X300 ultra is now $209. New price will be $269)

So, if you were thinking about a new Surefire, August might be the time to buy!

We have a pretty good selection on hand. Surefire

Probably not the best solution, but it's on my belt with my Leatherman every day.

Olight Warrior M20 550 lumen with strobe. Cost is reasonable and the quality is good.o comes with extra seals and on/off button.

I'm going to throw this out there, and maybe get flamed for it.

First, buy the Cadillac light that the others recommend. Then, get about 10 or 15 of these Mini Cree's and spread them around everywhere. One in every room, garage, car, desk at work, wife's purse, etc. No, they're not perfect quality; sometimes you'll get one where a switch won't work, or it will break quickly. And they take a couple of weeks to ship from China. But they're so cheap that you almost can't go wrong with them.

Also, if it is a home defense light, get it out and then turn out all your lights. (At night.) Then wait a few minutes for your eyes to adjust, and shine the light on the wall. If you find yourself blinded by the light reflecting off the wall, then it is too bright for indoor use. 100 or 200 lumens will be PLENTY to blind someone sneaking around in the dark. Shine a billion-lumen flashlight inside your house at night and everyone in the room will be blind.

100-200 may well be enough but as LED tech continues it's onward advance virtually ALL of your top-tier makers (Surefire, Malkoff, ArmyTek, etc.) are making HIGHER and HIGHER bottom end floors for lumens on their main lights. Its looking like 300-500 is becoming the "new 100-200".

Blinding yourself with your own light is more of a function of proximity to reflective surfaces and less than optimal technique than it is how bright your light is. If you're right next to a mirror or glossy white wall and you shine your light at it near eye level, a 120 lumen light is going to cause you trouble too. The solution is try not to do that, not carry a light that is so wimpy it can't produce enough light to bother you.

I'd rather have as much light available as possible and accept that I need to manage it properly.

Good point!

I agree.

I simply aim my light at the far less reflective floor before I splash it up at the wall any. It helps to have a nice light with a beautiful room filling spill like the Malkoff M61.

Another thing you can do with a very bright light is get a look at an entire room by hitting the ceiling with your beam. Sometimes you need a quick look at everything at once.

Hey, theledwarehouse I bought a FourSevens Mini M4a from you guys back in March. It crapped out on me. I believe it has a 10 year warranty. What do I need to do to get it fixed?

I have ordered from BJ before and shipping is pretty fast. They are in Connecticut. I recently ordered a flashlight from them and it quit working after about 2 months. Called and was given an RMA. Was also told light was out of warranty. I failed to notice that after receiving the RMA, I had a time limit to send the flashlight back. So flashlight arrived at BJ on a Monday and had a brand new flashlight on Thursday. I was late on the warranty and in returning the light but they still chose to honor the warranty and forgive me for my tardiness. Excellent customer service. One last comment. The owner answers the phone and speaks to you directly.

Don't forget, Surefire is making us hike pricing at the end of the month. It's a good time to buy a new Surefire light!

Does anyone know if there is a belt holster for a Fenix PD-35 that has Velcro on the belt loop ? There are times during the day when I want to take my light off and it's a pain to have to undo my belt to slide the light holster off. I had one for a Maglite I used to carry, but the Fenix is too big for it.

I have this: http://www.amazon.com/Flashlight-be...8382&sr=8-1&keywords=fenix+flashlight+holster

I've only worn it once (in-pocket clip carry is much more preferable in my everyday environment), and it was a bit of a pain to get the holster off the belt, but that could be mitigated by a belt smaller than 1.75"...the cool part is the fact that it rotates, so you could have your light secured at your waist with hands free. It's also relatively inexpensive, and easy to remove the light from the holster.

Take a look at Fenix lights. I've used a PD-32 for several years and have loved it. When it's time for a new light I'll get another Fenix.

...also love that it can use both regular or rechargeable batteries. ...and that the rechargeable battery life is super good.

That's awesome. Thanks. Ordering as we speak.
