What flashlight is everyone using. I have a bunch of different high dollar lights. Just curious what everyone is having the best luck with?

Browning Alpha. Best light on the market. Compact and bright and runs on one AA. Stays in my pocket all the time. Will clip on your hat brim too.

I would say that the Surefire lights are my favorite. Expensive as hell but durable and bright. The only thing they need is a homing device implanted in them or strap a Garmin collar to them so you can find them if you lose them. Over the last 4 or 5 years I've lost 2 and it makes me want to cry when I think about 3-400 dollars laying in a snowbank somewhere.

I use a energizer headlamp with a streamlight stinger light.

I got a Surefire last year and I am impressed with how bright it is. It is compact, has multiple settings, and is well built. The only thing I don't like is it takes a different battery than the standard AA or AAA . I hate having to carry multiple types of batteries with me.

Same deal with me. My only regret is not buying about 5 of them to stuff in all my vehicles or gear.

Bought the browning alpha it's a decent light but not real impressed. Nice light thou so far the nicest lights iv found are the Duracell led lights. Cheap and bright.
