Great torch for the money. This is the first time I had seen the 160 lumens model available on line anywhere. (They have two 80 lumens models that have been available since early August) The little gem I am talking about is model KDAY3DSC04L. It is a 4watt LED, utilizing 2 CR123 batteries (6volts total) Aluminum construction, and o-ring seal.

This thing is only about 5.75" long, and the barrel is less than an inch in diameter, but it is BY FAR the brightest flashlight I have ever owned. It is WAY brighter than my brother's $149 Surefire E2D.

And although the heft of my shiny Mag Light 2D is superior for use as a defensive weapon, it doesn't hold a candle to this thing in terms of a focused beam of light. (Actually, the Mag IS more like a candle.)

This post is not so much for the price as it is for the value. Highly recommended.

Evidence.

Far Brighter.

The Laser torch IS impressive, if you want 10 minutes of awesome power. The DayLite is still on the same batteries from last month...

The Pelican is yet another impressive light. My problem with the expensive ones is being afraid to lose them. (Too darn frugal)

If you buy the pelican nemo 8c, that is the best flashlight you will ever buy. Waterproof down to like 100', rugged, trigger on/off. It is bright as hell! It shines a beam of light through the night. I have had it for over 2 years without having to change the bulb(knock on wood). That's the one I recommend, if you need a strong light.

Pelican 7060 is too big. I thought it was a baseball bat when I first saw it.

Do they really do spot to flood? Seems like most long throw lights are useless indoors because they don't do flood well.

CR123 batteries are $8-$10 a piece around here, so you're looking at $16-$20 for a single change of batteries on this thing!

EDIT: DealExtreme has a 2-pack of no-name CR123s from Hong Kong for $3.61 shipped if you're willing to wait 2-3 weeks for shipping. That's much better than $16!

Is this Duracell Luxeon K2 or Cree? Also, next time someone is at Costco they ought to check on the model numbers in the Duracell Daylite two-pack they have there. I saw it at my local Costco last week, but don't recall the specifics....
