I think UncleWong means he did not taxed for that, usually small parcel will not be taxed, I guess. Btw, I thought items from Asian + China no more tax since 1st of 2010?

Ha ha, 

yothim, I think for self defense, you do not need a big light like the old day, the MagLight, you just need a very bright light with crenelated bezel will do the trick, while it is small enough to carry every day.

Like this (it is about RM75, shipped to you with registered airmail)

Well, actually it is not the real Ultrafire, though Ultrafire it self is a knockoff from US brand.

And try not to use D cell , it will sure leak if you put them in your car, use the CR123A instead, it will have a stand by time of 10 years, while D cell the most it will be leaked in 1 year or less.

Hi,

One of our local favourite flashlight dealer, GW2U, has one light that may meet your security requirements, and it's using a Cree XR-E LED, and runs on 3x AA (don't have to depend on D cells). Check out this link = http://www.lelong.com.my/police-125-watt-c...7-01-Sale-I.htm RM 65 only.

There are many who have purchased this light, and once I met a buyer at their shop who purchased 6-8 units for their residential community for security night walks. The handle is long enough to use it like a baton(comes with an extender for 4xAA), and the aluminum on this light is thick and very tough. The bezel is crenelated, so you can really do some damage to the face or skull.

About your alkaline battery question, basically an alkaline battery does not discharge itself (unless it is very old, it will tend to leak by itself or leak the moment it discharges). Some flashlights (or selected electronic equipments) may have parisitic drain which slowly drain batteries even if it's in the "Off" mode. So it depends, but the light I recommend above doesn't drain in "Off" mode.

If you want to use AA alkalines, I suggest to use IKEA ones, I haven't heard or experienced battery leaks from them. I'm not sure if the flashlight I recommended above can use 3x Lithium Primary AAs (definitely not 4 though). Have to confirm with Dannie from GW2U.

just went to pudu market for the 'flea market'.......the items there are quite cheap and i got myself this china made police 300w flashlight at only RM48 after bargain. the above ones are around Rm60 something with rechargeable batteries.

But I think there will not be as bright, maybe around or less than 100 lumens, the R2 is over 200 lumens.

Good job uncle wong. So you did receive all your light? Who did the boring for you?

Quite a lot of money you lost there. The boring - very smooth on the inside.
