Way more flashlights on the market than I could possibly test out – but here are a couple of my favorites, the Streamlight HL-X and the Thrunite TN36. The HL-X is a great (a little larger than I prefer) EDC light for when you need good power and lots of candela to push through. The Thrunite TN36 is just a powerhouse of a light that will give you a wall of light and basically turn night into day. The Thrunite C2 is just a handy device that will charge your cellphone and also give you a backup 18650 for whatever device might need it.

Seems that Hl-x had a better farther throw.
The two holes where the screws screw in for the clip does the two screw holes go through flashlight body Are it's a dead end screw hole?
Thatβs a really good point about the rechargeable battery when I look in my drawer I see batteries there and I have no idea how much power they have
FYI streamlight is also made in china lol.
Great video dude. I love my Streamlight HL-X with the Panasonice ncr18650b batteries. I cannot find a light that can replace it. I buy and sell a lot of lights and always go back to Streamlight as they have a real lifetime warranty.
Mount that chode light to an M1 Garand for the ultimate man rig
Some of these new 18650 FL require to use their own battery that offer High Discharge rate.
I have a bunch of 3000mAh 18650 batteries that came with my other average lights, which I'm sure they're not high discharge battery.
My question is, does this FL require Streamlight's own 18650 battery to reach to 1000 Lumens or can I use my own and still get to 1000 Lm?
Thanks!

Thanks for your time brother !!
You should do a review on the Olight (PL-MINI) 400 Lumen! That would be awesome!

Next time you talk to Thrunite, please tell them they should make a new C2 (C3?) with a USB Type C port. Also supporting USB PD would be even better! I would love to see a version that takes two 18650s even.
You arenβt rambling dude! I realy learn alot from ya
Great vid, Iβve had the the baton S1R as a primary for about a year or so. Reliability and efficiency is across the board in everything Iβve put it through. The only love/hate factor has been the length. Great at getting lost in the pocket and reducing bulk, but lacking in a full grip. Had a chance to check out the Olight M2R yet? Iβll be swapping over soon, but Iβm think the addition of length and tail switch may satisfy my edc for a while. Keep up the awesome feed bud, and loving all the vehicle/truck carry/camping gear and reviews.
If you just need a mini flashlight, this mini flashlight is the key length of 2/3 (1.65 inch) and can usb rechargeable https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06Y5FQ3NY
lol Do you think you can make a gun holster with a spot for a flashlight just like an extra mag?
You should do a review on the stream light 1L-1AA.
Try out the Surfside Tactician designed by James Yeager,

Love your flashlight videos (and your videos in general). I EDC the thrunite C2 with a little USB cable in the sheath that comes with it and I love it. Its nice to charge my phone when I don't have a place to charge it and with my BLF A6 ($25, 18650, 1400-1600 lumen, unknown candela and lux). I've been wanting to pick up the HL-X Railmount for a while for my SBR as-well as the standard HL-X, but I'm not sure how that and my BLF A6 would compare (different reflector and larger head on the HL-X). My BLF A6 I use pretty much every day during my work and when my old black dog decides not to come in at night (13 acres in the middle of nowhere). I'd love to rock the TN36 though, but I can't see myself dropping that much cash on it.
Ramble on brother!!
I carry the HLX on duty, its an awesome light! I carry it with a 18650 and then I have a back up in my lunch box…havent needed the back up yet! I take the 18650 out every couple shifts and top it off just to be sure since I primarily work night shifts lol
Whereβs the second vid!lol

I live in the mountains near Denver too… we might be neighbors, if so we should get coffee and talk near π
"Give me all the lumes bro" "I got you fam" lolππππ€£π€£π€£
Do a video on carry ammo!
Hey another awesome vid, any chance of a review of the Olight M2R Warrior? Already have the Olight S1R Baton thanks to your review on your edc.
Wait…so which one is better, THIS light featured here or the Olight X7R Marauder at 12,000 lumens? The two body designs look nearly identical. https://youtu.be/wW_3pwLP8gs
When rechargable batteries die, do they die all at once, or do they get dim before dying?
It's been awhile since I tuned into you channel .. glad to see everything is on the up and up … keep going Kellin Quinπ
I 100% agree with your thoughts on rechargeable batteries. I wish surefire would make a nice self defense light, or at least a nice utility light that takes an 18650.
Love your videos bro. Wish YouTube still paid you guys.
Check out the new Olight warrior. Tail cap and all. Very nice
Get the olight pl mini
Solid vid bro!! Legit lights!!
I own Maglights, both LED and incandescent bulbs, and I love them, but I have to keep adding and adding stuff to my duty belt so my 2-4 D cell Maglights have become a bit of a bother to carry. I bought the Streamlight HL-X because I needed something with high lumens, but small enough to save space on my duty belt or by having it in a pocket, since I work a lot at night and usually deep in the mountains and I absolutely love it. It's well constructed, the clip is so handy, I like the programmable modes, and the best part is that I always have an 18650 battery laying around since I have lots of vapes. I also use the HL-X as an edc light since it's actually not that big and when you clip it in your pocket you forgot it's even there. I highly recommend the HL-X. I'm definitely going to check out the TN36 because that thing is a beast!
Flashlights get me excited too…
Enjoyed the video but the jacket is clean man lol what is it?
The TN36 is perfect for concealed carry!
And some of us are into rambling reviews. π
have you tried the thrym switchback for that streamlight? it's an awesome replacement for that clip you don't like! check it out! https://thyrm.com/product/switchback-2-large-flashlight-ring/
thurnite tc 10 v2 is good 1000 lumens for 65 bucks recharble micro USB Olights gun lights and EDC are awesome and Nitecore
