  1. I work in a detention facility and this is my carry flashlight, abused the heck out of it, love it. EDC, work, whatever. K, actually watched the video, didn't know about the triple a's… gonna buy a second one…

  2. You have convinced me that I need one of these. You need to get on that Amazon affiliate link bandwagon so I can support you with my limited understanding of trickle down economics.

  3. I order one after the glowing recommendation in your podcast with the Minimalist a few days ago (currently working my way through your video library after finding your channel thanks to the colab with TGF). I have been using cheap (like ~5-10 EUR cheap) flashlights for EDC for years. They work ok, but they don't last (I have to replace them every year or so). My current one is just starting to show its age (occasionally it won't turn on and I have to smack it to get it to work and the screws holding the clip in place are starting to get loose and even Loctite won't help any longer). I'm looking forward to see how well this one holds up.
    As for the brightness, shouldn't it be identical between the AA and AAA? Both run at 1.5V (or 1.2V for the rechargeable ones), the AAA just have fewer mAh, so they shouldn't last as long. The CR123A run at 3V (nominally, usually 3.6-3.7V when new), so I'm hoping my rechargeable 14500 li-ion rechargeable ones (AA form factor, but 3.7V) might work as well. I've been using them in some of my cheap flashlights (the closer to 10EUR ones, the really cheap ones don't work with anything higher than the 1.5V, or at least not for long XD) and they have been working great.

  4. Great video! I recently found you channel, and then found out through your video with Tacticool Girlfriend that you are a liberal firearms owner, which is awesome.

    Keep up the great work, I hope you can continue with your surplus series, as your makarov video is what made me sub to your channel.

  5. LMAO the O-light comment, I've carried a S2R Baton 2 and I've had good success with it even after I dropped it in a duck marsh and had it running while out in the freezing rain. But then again the factory battery died on me only 6 months after getting it and the clip got deformed from clipping it on my hat for too long in said freezing rain

  6. Ya got me… Just went over to Amazon picked one up for $36 plus tax.. Prolly won't carry it EDC but the fact that it'll take C123, AA, and AAA, means perfect for hurricane season, or any OTHER situation where logistics can get difficult.
