Flashlights.

when I got my first one, I wore the batteries down playing with them in different
situations I created just for fun in like 3 days lol. ya cant not play with these lanterns
I swear it. oh you guys/gals will too so yuk it up jokesters lol.
I have a long loop I tied to the lil loop in the top of my main tents ceiling
using paracord. I put a lil clip on the lantern and now we have a good quality
light..... just tons of uses guys. I even put one on the end of a pvc pole
fixed to my kayak for night visibility for myself and to other boats. perfect!
oh I can go on too.


if anybody gets one of these, report in with your findings.

Sorry, I meant where in the store do you end up finding them? Camping section?

Oh, and are they branded RockRover or generic?
 
I found mine by the check out but I have head that they can also be
in camping, household goods, lawn garden, just gotta look. wish I could be more
helpful. look on line or at targets website to see what they have.
 
I know this isn't Tactical but the best flashlight I have for a power outage is a Dewalt 14.4 flashlight ($15 used) with rechargeable battery. I have put a 1 Watt 12V LED bulb (100+ lumens) which I paid $6 including shipping. I also bought a 3000 mAh battery ($20). The light is a clean white light and brighter than their yellow original bulb.
I have a 1500 mAh battery ($16) on the flashlight and it should burn for over 100 hours on the charge and the 3000 should burn for over 10 days straight.
I am not suggesting that you go out and buy this but if you have some rechargeable tools. look into their flashlight and replace the bulb with a LED for less than $10 and it will last for ever. Kill two birds with one stone. I use mine all the time, it stands up and rotates to all positions.

I like the metal streamlight stingers. I have sevearal stingers, super stingers, and ultra stingers. Batteries are affordable and last a few years, they are incandescent so they last 4-6 hours continuous. I am an aircraft mechanic, and bought my original in 2001. I have used it as a prybar, hammer, wheel chock, heater, and about anything else you can think of. Had to replace a couple of lenses (don't set them lens down while on) and 1 switch but other than that no issues. Not as bright as an led, but led tend to wash out color too (can be a problem of trying to find the leak in the middle of the night). I have tried the led versions, but don't like them as much.
