Roadside work

[d_adams]

Ever been stuck out at night, side of the road, etc and have nothing to see by? I bought this for a different reason, but now that I've seen this thing in the daylight, I can hardly wait for nightfall now. 1000 lumens of screaming brightness. Yep, it's pretty hard on the eyes if you look right at it.

That is the brightest light I have ever seen. Good tool to have under seat and in shop.

Does that serve as a taser also?

I never even thought of putting a small light in the "trunk". Wouldn't that just be the balls to need one and not have it? I have one in my car. I guess I don't ride all that much at night, and when I do it's just around town, but still probably a smart idea.

TBH, even a cheapie chinese made AA led is better than having nothing and you can pick them up pretty much anywhere. I'd try finding a CREE R5 light if possible (latest generation I think) for better light output. I got this one from http://www.monsterflashlight.com/

They've got even brighter models, but this one was what got my attention. It's close to the same size as a mini-maglight, just a little fatter around the lens area.

Back yard, no lights. 8:30 pm.

Now for some light.

Directly into the pool, this thing really reflects the light all over the place.

Stacked side by side, it's a little shorter.

Blinding I tell ya!

I love flash lights and have a large collection.

An older model of the 4sevens mini 123. 210 lumens out the front and only 2.8"

Use to be my EDC, super bright but being a twisty it sucked with one hand operation

My new EDC is olight s10, 320 lumens and it is push button. I like it a lot, its less then 3" also.

Only the first image is mine.

I was wondering why you posted up random pictures of your back yard on facebook ... I was looking for eyes in the trees or in the pool ...

Creeper alert!




Lol, I can never keep track of who's who between here and there unless I talk to that person a lot or the name matches.

Like me!

"who are you again?"

Goes and hides in corner*

1000 LUMENS?!?!?! How much did that run you?

 

[d_adams]

www.monsterflashlight.com and it was just under $100 for the light, battery and charger. They have a 3300 lumen model for $220 for the light, add batteries and charger to that though.

 

[djs2k2]

Holy crap $220 its almost that much for the led tail light. Maybe you should get together with the guy that makes the led tail light, and you could come up with something that had a quick release/ **** I should patient that. Never mind it would never sell. Go EBR

Don't tell me that's a light saber. I really hope I spelled that correct, if I didn't, I meant to misspell it.
