I don't invest large amounts in my flashlights, I tend to lose or break them no matter how good they are, so far good one is energizer hard case series in 2aa, 2c and 2d LED, range from 10$ to about 30$, water proof, shock proof, idiot proof, and for special occasions my husky 3 million candle power, it'll even warm you up haha

I use a Mini Maglight 3-AA LED flashlight. It works great and is surprisingly bright for being a MiniMag.

Personally, I take my Surefire A2 Aviator with me. Figure its got 3 red leds for low light and a 80 (i think) lumen main beam when needed.

Beyond that, just a cheapo 6 led light with build in laser works wonders.

How did you go with the Led Lenser? I've not heard much about them on here. I have a P7 and always wondered what the P14 would be like.

That's some nice even lighting from such a compact torch. Cheers for the feedback.

I use a nite lite hunting lite when needed its a bit heavy but offers a knob that dims the lite when needed or blasts bright lite if wanted for hours on end for backup and defence a 3D maglite and a pocket maglite can never go wrong with maglites I own 2 3D'S and 2 2D's and have put them through all kinds of abuse.

Hey midwest urban85, where did you get the mount for the light that I see attached to the hat? I have a few carbide miner's lamps, but I can't find a hat attachment.




Sometimes I wonder if my obsession with flashlights led to my interest in Urban Exploration, or conversely, if my
interest in exploration led to my flashlight obsession

The hat came with the mount attached. I have both a hard hat and the billed hat pictured above, otherwise here is a link for the nite lite brand hat.

I use a Husky Tools 3d light (much like a 3d maglite) and a brinkmann led light which really sucks and i don't recommend it (picture below, to further help you avoid the brinkmann)






Its true. I still use the Brinkmann for my emergency light. The battery life is great, but it doesnt throw light worth a damn.

A good buddy of mine uses a Delta Force by Smith & Wesson, it puts my old Surefire to shame. In fact i just ordered one and the price is unbeatable.

I wonder if it would be possible to hook a car headlight to a battery and use that as a light source... If so, that would be my choice.


Actually the now infamous Peter Sand from Minneapolis did this. He had a rig he wore on his back that consisted of 4 headlights and a motorcycle battery.

I use this in a 6D maglite.

http://www.battery...n.com/tle-6k2.html

Its almost too bright for drains, allows me to focus (flood/spot) the beam and runs for < 12 hours on 6 D cells.

Having said that however, always carry 3 sources of light whenever draining/caving or exploring after dark.

Mini-maglite-
2x AA batterie model:
~water proof,
~durable,
~good quality,
~comes with an extra bulb(stored in the shaft),

$20- a great price for a reliable flashlight...
