A truly great flashlight

The after-dark, all-weather dog walking flashlight I've been searching for. As the "Wirecutter" article warns, one can spend more money on cheap products that fail and have to be replaced than on a single, good quality one. Wish I'd been smarter about it sooner. I love the "Firefly" mode - it's just enough light to keep an eye on what my pooch is up to while maintaining my night vision. Separate "mode" switch and the fact it will go into strobe mode only when I want it to are also great features. Mid-barrel belt / shirt pocket clip is a bit weird, but rather than simply remove it I've positioned it such that it helps me instantly locate the mode switch without looking. Highly recommend.

Pros
  • With a maximum beam distance of 118 meters, this flashlight can illuminate objects at a significant distance
Cons
  • The flashlight may not have a very long lifespan
