Searching Good Rechargeable Light
on: March 13, 2016, 12:58:13 PM
My old K2 from Led Lenser died (dropped it one too many times).
I had rechargeable light at my work and really liked it, no more hassle with batteries.

I really liked K2, but i think its time to find new one.

Been looking for P5R.2 as its pretty much the largest light I would like to EDC.
(at 2,72oz / 77g and a lenght of 4,6inch / 11,7cm)

Any flashlights you would recommend?
Brand doesn't matter.
Prize doesn't matter either.
Is P5R.2 worth it?

The Streamlight Strion is excellent.  http://www.streamlight.com/product/product.aspx?pid=154

Consider also using NiMH rechargeable batteries in virtually any light - AA, AAA, etc.  Or an 18650 rechargeable battery in any light that accepts it - FourSevens, Fenix, etc.

I prefer using rechargeable batteries rather than a rechargeable light, because you can drop in fully charged batteries without having to wait several hours to charge up a rechargeable light.

You can also get something like a Strion, plus an additional Strion battery.  That gives you the best of both worlds, as you can charge the light on the charger, or drop in a fully charged battery if you don't want to wait.
