LED Flashlight

[Wizard765]

If they can make a pocket size LED flashlight this good we should be able to get a really good reasonably priced LED headlight at some point or hwy lights that actually light up the road..

I actually considered mounting a high quality LED flashlight or two like that onto the bike and running it off twelve volts with a knock down transformer.

I've got a couple similar flashlights (under $14), and bring one in my bike for use as a substitute headlight just in case. Good for about 2 hours before 4000mah battery needs replacing / recharging.

I notice the ad does not include lumen rating.

My f-lights are 1000 and 1200 lumens.

Interesting.

But,,, look on Amazon and other websites for MUCH better pricing on what looks like same light.

More like $5 -$12 for some pretty bright stuff instead of $50.

 

I paid $40 for a Klutch at Northern Tool.

These appear to have more lumens for much cheaper.

 

But you will probably want to get a rechargeable battery.

Watch close, some of the high power flash lights require a special battery. The special battery and charger are all separate parts.

 

The technology is real close, there are some advertizing LED headlights and driving lights. I dont know if the have the beam patterns correct yet. I have not seen LED driving or head lights that are DOT.

I have the Dually spot driving lights on my bike and they make the Ultrastar headlight look like a candle. Well worth the money.

Flyinfool, both Trucklite and JW Speaker make LED headlights that have DOT and ECE certifications. Expensive as hell (about $300) though.

 

The Kuryakin Phase 7 (or what it's called) is the Trucklite and the one on Harleys is the JW Speaker one.

 

Also, for some ridiculously powerful flashlights, see here: http://elektrolumens.com . I have the FireSword and I'm very happy with it (think of a Maglite on steroids).
