    Nice list! I have a few of those already. The Wurkkos WK15 comes in usually well under $30. I got mine for $26 if I remember correctly. Its a great simple UI 21700 flashlight with USB C power bank function and incredible run time with the XHP50.2 for that price. For anyone reading this make sure you get the XHP50.2 in 6000k, the 5000k version suffers bad from the fried egg look with a yellow hot spot! My favorite are the tint shifters also, I have a couple of them from Emisar.

    Hey new to flashlight world and I’m wondering the best flashlight bang for buck, but I have a few questions. What would be the best “prepper” flashlight lol? I’m assuming good old wind up would be the best if the power grid went out, or Should I go with something that takes like AA batteries cuz I know batteries last long. Rechargeable seams to defeat the whole purpose of why I’m looking into one, but I really have no knowledge here. Hope someone can help! Thanks

      Bang for buck, there's a lot of good choices but a couple to mention in 14500/AA would be lumintop tool 2.0 and sofirn sp10 pro.

    Great video Joseph. What did you use to take apart the tail cap on your L21B? What emitter is in your m21? You said sft70&40. Do you know if the m21b has the same reflector as the pioneman k45?

    Word on the street has it (aka your comment section) that you own a poke lit aa.. I’m looking at getting one. Are the single cell 14500 ones better than a hot rod i3t? I’m upset because the poke lit copper is 50 lumens less and a little less throw.. I have always wanted a copper light but it’s less powerful.. is the beam better or worse than the i3t hot rodded

      It has about the same output as a i3t w/14500 and a extra mode, if you can get a good deal on it I would definitely say it is worth it.
