Hello friends
I am back to the forum after a long absence, hope you all are having great time. Well, I am looking at buying a new LED flashlight torch for camping and need your advice to get the best one. I already have one, but it is not bright enough when I use it in the evening. After going through some reviews I have narrowed my choice down to Flashlight Mag and Brinkmann LED flashlight torches. Both look awesome and available at http://www.dealrocker.com/promotions/buy.com/deals with good discounts, but I still can't make my decision because I don't want to buy something useless again. What do you think about them? Want to know your advice before getting into anything.

Thanks..

Costco has 3-packs of great LED flashlights for under $15.00 and their return policy is top-notch.  Fry's electronics carries the COAST brand and we have those as well, both are rugged and dependable and as good as any MagLite or Brinkman products.  Only SureFire is better, but then what do you expect for $100 and up?

i like maglites in general and order them for all the building staff I work with yet have to admit I find them a tad pricey to go camping with.
This after the man left one in the mens' room, realised it, turned around to pick it up and it was gonegonegone.
He bought me a new one after I grumbled but after that it's cheapies all the way for us Wink.

Costco once again has their 3-packs of rugged LED lamps on sale, these use 3 X aaa batteries.  I think the coupon deal starts this Friday, like $3 off their price which last year or two ago was about $15.00, or 1/3 the cost of DealRocker even without the coupon.   Mine are 190 lumens as I remember, but they sometimes carry 160 lumens models that look exactly the same.  Bright/BRIGHTER/Blinking with soft indicator on bottom that flashes red when the batteries are about shot.  Cheesy  What I really want is one of the aa battery-powered headlamps, I know once I get one I'll be hooked!  Roll Eyes
