Default Xenon flashlight

Hey guys,

I'm in the market for a good and durable flashlight. I'm going with a xenon flashlight as they're alot brighter. Does anyone know where i can pick one up thats not relatively expensive (under $30).

Maglite AA

I bought mine years ago and its done me well. I recently converted it to LED and push button cap, and its still going strong.

I have an LED torch in my car, one in my tool box, and my Maglite in my room. I'll never buy another torch (unless I lose it ha ha!)

Maglite in your room aye Joe? That'd be a double handed one I presume? Remember it's only a weapon if it's not on at the time it makes contact with some fools skull

which one is brighter. xenon or LED? I heard that the LED dispenses the light evenly but not too sure about the xenon. I fancy those torches that they use in CSI. are they xenon?

I think your after HID which is totally different to Xenon torches.

You will not find a HID torch for under $30, I have rechargeable HID spotlights at work for $275 which is cheap compared to some diving spec ones which are way over $500.
