i search the best flashlight with a max. of 18cm, and <50 dollar.
I want it to run on 18650 and as much lumens as possible.
i want to purchase it on dealextreme or ebay, or such a website.
Anyways the 50 dollar is including shipping.

Thanks.

On DX I got one rated at 900 lumens, but it got deleted from the store (???)
will search some. :)
this and this look pretty alike the one I bought.
I'm no flashlight master but, the one I got is pretty STRONG, even on MID mode. Maybe could burn with external lenses :p

bright as hell? get a 50W hid for like 180/200$ on ebay that should be bright :p

btw the Fenix TK45 is a cool light but it uses 8 AA iirc kinda much :eek:

yes but those things are way to big. this one is not small, but not big either.

and i will probaly buy the torch from wicked somewhere this month, if the shipping times are acceptable.

The torch from wicked lasers?.....:tsk:

lots of IR light, realllllllly bad battery life, lots of people had it "kill itself" because of overheating itself....in other words it sux!

a sst-90 like op said would be cool and affordable.

anyway its still your choice...choose wisely my friend:p

o and perhaps you should keep an eye on CPF marketplace

yes but those are for brighness... Not for burning.
i already purchased the fenix TK45 for brightness.

Yeh the battery life sucks, but my 445nm of 1.4w also lasts 5 minutes max on a 18650. and im not planning to use the torch for a walk.
If there is a alternative i happy consider it, because i am aware of the bad reputation that wicked has.
