Can anyone give me some advice, experience? Especially, which brand(s) do you recommand?
Rechargable battery or not? Luminosity? ...
there is a glut on the market, battery headlights for bicycles can double as flasnhlights ..
I have 2 4x AA battery powered , the German B&M, displaced the Asian "Planet bike", which became the flashlight.
the new one shaped the beam to put the light on the street, not half in the trees. , but as a flashlight that is OK
bulb/LED, In the center of a parabolic reflector is how flashlights have been for 100 years?+/..
but for durability Maglights are tough to beat .. 5-D cell ones, in fact, double as Police batons.
