I've bought several "Ultrafire" Asian knockoff flashlights from ebay. They advertise 2,000 lumens, have a strobe etc. and are blinding bright. You can get them with a single rechargeable battery and charger for about 12 bucks.

I'm a flashlight nut and I have used these guys for years without an issue.

I do agree on the pepper spray, but you wanted flashlight info. http://www.ebay.com/itm/3PC-2000LM-U...0AAOSw9r1V7~2w

Thx guys! The Fenix PD35 is the light I'm considering and here's why.

The PD35 is a great option.

Another to consider, within the same price range is the 780 lumen Foursevens QT2L-X. This one has the output level selected by loosening or tightening the head. When the head is tight, it always outputs the amount of light programmed. The turn-on brightness level can be selected, by tightening or loosening the head, while the light is turned off, so it will turn on at the desired level.

Thanks to a suit from Surefire, they're discontinued, but still readily available.

NiteCore is great also, I have the smaller MT1C. The MT2C is equivalent to Fenix pd35. You can find them at a reasonable price on ebay.

This got me thinking of getting a flashlight as a Christmas present. Doing a little research and both Nitecore and Fenix now make a series with a micro usb plug built in to charge the battery. That's pretty cool. My smart phone has a micro usb so I have a charger in all the cars.

Scum bags don't like being lit up with big light. I think it's a great deterrent. I like the kimber spray also. I like lasers too also for intimidation. But I don't recommend them to novices.
