Pelican2370 Tactical LED Flashlight (Black)

This is hands down the best light I own. I use flashlights a lot in my line of work, so I would venture to say I have a respectable knowledge on the subject. I typically use a Surefire light with a red filter attached to accomplish my tasks, and that has always worked great for me. However, as of late I have been interested in a quality light that has an integrated red l.e.d. So naturally, my first thought was the Surefire Aviator. I just couldn't fork over the funds for one of them, and liked the idea of the mode programmability on this Pelican.Everything about this light is of high quality. The fit and finish is top notch, and the light has a heft to it that signals a sturdy build quality. While you can't tell the "beefiness" of the internal electronics by feeling the weight, it's evident that a high level of care went into their construction. The l.e.d.'s on my model are all perfectly aligned and perfectly centered within their reflectors, without a spec of dust or single blemish on the reflector. This is something that even more expensive lights fail to accomplish, and a sign that Pelican cares about the overall quality of their product.I am using this light with Panasonic Eneloop batteries and they work great. They give me "guilt free" lumens being that they are rechargeable, and offer a long run time. Another advantage is I don't have to worry about the dreaded alkaline leak ruining my light. However, if I find myself in a less than ideal situation, AA batteries can be readily found all around the world, and several other pieces of my kit (nav. equipment etc) already call for either AA or AAA batteries so they're always around.I apologize for the lengthy review, I just wanted to convey my happiness with my purchase and hope I could help make up someone's mind who may be on the fence about purchasing one.

No surprises. Strong, well built and finished product.

I’m one of those people that like different flashlights and this one was a good one for my collection. Keep it around the house and keep it handy. It’s very bright. It feels like good quality. The battery life is really good. I definitely recommend this flashlight.

I used my new pelican, flashlight for walking through the wood in early morning before daylight and it did a great job nice broad bean, nice bright and clear lighting in front of me so I can see my steps and everywhere I can safely walk ! Great light for the money ! Compact and very easy to carry while you are traveling with a lot of other gear !!!

I've had this light for several months now, and I love it. There's nothing much I can say against it. I only wish it had a focusing beam, but that has not been much of an issue for me. I love the three different light modes. Just FYI, the high, low, and strobe modes don't work on the red and green lighting. The battery life has been good, though I have not had it on for very long periods. I love the feel, it feels tough and durable, which is what I was hoping for. I would definitely buy another one!

I like the different modes of light this tool can give me. I have red, green, bright light and soft light for walking on trails or in the woods at night. Plus this light only eats 2 AA batteries at a time and its brighter than most other lights with larger batteries than it has. When I saw it I wanted it for my night time fishingjaunts on Patoka Lake.

This is a nice light weight light with decent illumination. It has three choices of LED colors (white, green and red). Runs on two AA batteries and Energizer Lithium work great. Program a little. Challenging to program but overall a wonderful light, versatile and lightweight. Highly recommended if it meets your illumination needs. Really like this light.

I'm a professional stage hand who works in a number of environments. I go through a lot of flashlights.Pros: Lightweight, but very durable. Bright, focused beam. Red is perfect for low-light situations, green is nice for signaling without using a full beam.Cons: Battery life is somewhat lackluster, but AAs are cheap.For consideration:Reprogrammable, so you can change what pressing the buttons once vs twice does and so forth. I like mine to be the less-bright beam on the first click, the lighter beam on the second.Red and Green LEDs are located on the sides of the reflector, so the colored beams are somewhat offset. This is easy to index with the pocket clip and the branding bezel.The green LED is not for low light situations. Use for signaling.
