hello henry, if you can let us know what price/budget range you are looking at, and what you will be using it for, we can then help to zoom in to some specific models.
in simplest form, take note that a regulated flashlight will run at the same brightness regardless of whether you are using primaries AA or rechargeable AA. if you are interested to know more about regulated vs non-regulated vs hybrid, you can read more at The Welcome Mat - a FAQ from www.candlepowerforums.com.

for mid to higher end model, i suggest that you pay a visit to GadgetWorld2U's shop at SS15, Subang Jaya. here's a link to one of their sales thread [GadgetWorld2U] on Fenix. They carry a pretty good selection of LED flashlights.

for entry-level model, you can visit ACE hardware or Jusco's sports/camping equipment section (i believe the consignor has a retail outlet in Garden/Pavilion) at Mid-Valley for some Mini MagLite LED or Pelican or Streamlight. Note that as of last week, price of MagLite at Ace is still lower than Jusco's

hope this helps...

To All Sifu

Actually i'm use it for emergency & camping. My budget below RM100 .. I prefer AA/rechargeable coz AAA quite expensive for the battery . Anyway,thx for ur reply

Hey Henry,

Since you require it for camping, I would suggest getting a neutral white tint light with multiple output.

Cause you wont wanna blind yourself with 200++ lumens while camping at night.

But to have a neutral white LED at this price is pretty hard unless I have missed it somewhere..

Try the Eagletac P100A2. It has 55 lumens on low and 195 lumens on high, RM160 from Philightsphy.

And it has a 10 year warranty (if i'm not mistaken..)!!!

Pretty good buy I would say.. Unless there are other suggestions?? For a light below RM100...

Maybe a Mini Mag? But I wont recommend that... U wont be satisfied with it..

The romisens (Eg: RC-N3) are a great buy and they are below RM100.
Only problem is you gotta get them from overseas.

Shiningbeam.com

Dealextreme.com

They are 3 stage lights with strobe functions.
Takes cr123 or 2xAA batteries.

I have one and it's one heck of an RM60 light.

*on a side note, pretty sure they would sell very very well if someone brings them in. Especially to the general public.

hello henry, RM100 is good enough to get you a bright flashlight. please follow this link [GadgetWorld2U] - Other Flashlights where you can get Akoray P4 or Tank007 M20 well within your budget. You may also want to consider a headband from NiteCore for RM20, it can hold most AA flashlight and turn it into a headlamp.

a headlight is useful for camping and exploring as it frees your hands for other tasks like cooking, setting up tent, starting camp fire, etc. and it's also useful for other emergency scenario.

when you say AAA is expensive, are you referring to watt/dollar value? if you do not mind to use AAA, there is a pretty good headlight that you can get from Ace Hardware Mid-Valley, the brand/model is Rayovac SportsMan and it's retail at RM76.00, advertised to run for ~40 hours. What you get is a bright white LED and one each of red, green and blue LED, using 3 x AAA battery.

AAA got rechargeable too and our bro strinq is selling here

bro pseudoblue is organizing a gathering on 24th of this month... next Saturday. perhaps you can consider joining and I don't think you need to be a flashaholic to join. we are a friendly bunch that like to share what we know...

Haha, thanks for the promo bro haha.
Oh, energizer also has a pretty decent headlamp with 2 bright white and a single red light.
Saw them at carerfour mid valley for RM39. Also using 3 x AAA battiries with an advertised runtime of 50 hours.

Wow~~u guy so helpful

I thk will try buy frm lowyat member especially gadgetworld2u since his flashlight under my budget

Anyway,thank you so much

P10A2 (neutral white) on Imedion AAs

yupp, i can dream of anything as long it's freebies


Question to all flashaholic ;

If you were to buy only 1 Surefire, which model would you go for it? and why? [ LED version, highest possible lumens, budget below USD250 ]

This post has been edited by old newspaper: Oct 18 2009, 10:20 PM

another question to all flashaholics.

is the gathering still on?

if it is, can someone fetch me from subang?

From the best ever light poll, seems like the A2/A2L is the choice for a lot of people.
But the LX2 looks like a solid buy too.
Been reading a few threads and everyone loves theirs with little complaints.
15 lumens low and 200 lumens high. But i really don't like how it looks...

yeah, LX2 is the one i'm considering....yet it's within my budget. [ it's USD 195 before less 20% ]. i personally like the physical look and it's UI too...thanks for assuring it a good buy



i have few 'chinese' light, so it's time to get a real solid light once and for all....

actually i was amazed with the capability of LX2 balanced flood and throw, a tiny yet strong contender to TK40 and even M2C4

off topic - anybody got used single AA or double AA flashlight for sale do drop me a pm. Thanks..

haha
the lx2 is nice
but better if compatible with 18650

But don't forget, they only use primaries.
No rechargeables for surefires.
