Default Good small LED flashlights

Yeah, but just on Audis--- what do they know?


They know how much to stiff you. $5000 pair! I'll take a dozen,
don't bother to wrap 'em.

Spotlights?

Yeah-


How big a spot? Big enough to light a Bomber at 10,000ft?

Floodlights?

Yeah- but it was the British Navy using them-- so probably nothing
worth bothering about.


I looked up a few LED floodlights. Flood what? A bathroom sink?

You're living a few years behind the times.


Perhaps. I'm not saying LEDs are NOT the future, but the future is
not today. Today, I use what I know to work for me, not what
marketers tell me works.

You're free to use a kerosene lamp if you choose.


As I'm free to use an old fashioned two D-cell flashlight instead
of my $30 3 LED headlamp, which currently lies collecting dust cuz the
ancient $5 incandescent flashlight is more handy and provides more
USABLE light. Likewise, you are free to use whatever you like.
