Morning all,
I have a Maglite (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.maglite.com/product.asp?psc=2DCELL" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.maglite.com/product.asp?psc=2DCELL</a><!-- m -->) that I picked up a couple of years back - it's a 2D so a fairly hefty one, but even with new batteries it's not actually that bright. I tried a non-branded LED option, but that just resulted in a dim blue glow.
As a security item it's ideal, as you could pummel a would-be attacker without a scratch, but it does suck a bit as a torch (which for me is admittedly the primary function).
Anyone upgraded or got tips?
Chris
