Flashlight advice

[gsarg]

Until your rechargeable takes a **** on you when you're about a half mile from your cruiser out in the middle of the woods looking for a murder suspect.

Oh please, you make it sound like alkaline batteries never die.

Prepared people have a second battery (or batteries) in case they need it/them.

Ive got several (6) lights i carry on duty in my vehicle. Surefire make up the majority of them. However ive got streamlights and a lightstick in the herd. Different lights for different jobs, but the rechargeable's are my favorite. Usually always have a spare on me, "1 is none, 2 is one" motto was drilled into me years ago..
Surefire's have been the most reliable by far, you really wail on them and they keep going.

Nothing screams poor craftsmanship like wrinkles in your duct tape

The very reason I'll never own a rechargeable flash light. Rechargeables are for drill motors and yard ornaments.
