SureFire flashlights

[BBQRidge]

I have been looking at these for about a year. How are these lights? I use a flash light quite often but none seem to give me the light I want unless I want to carry a canon. I also would like to use it for fishing and hunting. For hunting which color is best for not spooking deer? Red, blue, green or yellow-reen?

I have a 6P and the E2E with the 60 Lumen lamp. They are expensive, but they are worth it. Plus you can get filters (Red for saving night vision, blue for tracking a blood trail) for these lights. Call Surefire, tell them what you want a light for and they will get you the correct model.

Just a side note:
I was SCUBA diving at night in a local training area and my dive light failed. I ended up using my E2E down to 20' to finish the work I was doing. No water in the light and all was great.

My Brother-in-law has one mounted to the front of his duty weapon. Standard issue for his Police force.

Deer hunting with a flashlight? Grenades too?

Flashlights are very important tools to me as a cop on the midnight shift. I own SureFire LEDs and incandescents and, other than rechargeable Mag-Lites, I won't buy anything else. They are well worth the money. The LED lights are more of a floodlight while the incandescent lights are more focused. I generally prefer the LEDs but both types have their place on my duty belt.

Standard gear for US Fighter pilots and very usefull in a "shoot down" situation, although not as usefull as a S&W 38 revolver.

I am a big fan of the Streamlight brand which is the "other" premium lights.
I carry a Scorpion in my back pack and use a rechargeable Stinger for looking for game at night. Both are super bright and top shelf products. I also use their M6 tactical light/laser combo on my AR15 for hunting piggies and varmints at night (legal in Texas).
Another great item I have come to love that are cheap are the L.E.D. cap lights. I use a green (won't spook the game) one walking into and back from my stands and a white one around camp and when cleaning game at night since it shines right where you are looking and gives you light "hands free". Best $10 bucks items that I know of. Hope Santa puts a couple more in my stocking this year.

I know nothing at all about these lights and always wanted to get a good bright, long life, dependable one for the glove, so any information, ie. price, pics, links concerning this would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Check out the Coast LL7767 V2 3 Watt Luxeon. I got one for about $82 and it is the brightest light for it's size out there.

I did the xmas party for streamlight at their factory and they gave me a TL3 as a present. I never knew a little light like that could throw so much light. Built like a tank. Also can be used as a spot light for about 150yards.

Take a look at them too.
