Cool! (pun intended) I like LEDs. I’ve got 8 or 10 LED flashlights ranging from cheap to moderately expensive (as tactical lights go). They’re bright, virtually indestructible, and don’t use much battery. I’ve only ever had one LED light fail a Fenix TK-10 which is a cheap Chinese light (in the realm of tactical lights). That was a regulator circuit that died. I’ve got a Coleman and a couple of MagLites that are just great. The Mag XL50 in particular is a great little light. I keep one on the nightstand.

I hate LED lights, but it is from an aesthetics perspective; the light is cold looking. Prefer the warmth of yellow-hued lighting, which is why I also hate fluorescent.

...

Did Fenix replace it? They are one of the better brands.

These are the handiest things to have. Dorcy discontinued this model, but not before I bought about 20. I also have gold and silver colored ones. Takes 1 AAA battery, which lasts forever, and gives off good light.

Fenix is one of the most respected lights.

I hope you used their guarantee.

What kind of guy puts down Fenix, and tries to sell Coleman and Maglite as “great” lights?
