Compact, powerful tactical flashlight? who makes one at a reasonable price?
 

I am looking for a (2)AA or even (2)C size light. Probably HO LED type. I find these very expensive. I heard Home Depot might be stocking one that was pretty good. Extra points for rechargeable.

NOT looking for the run of the mill maglight

Look at the Surefire G2. Good price, great light.=http://www.surefire.com/G2X-A-BK

Solarforce
 

I went with a Solarforce that I found on eBay.

itc_shop sells them out of Hong Kong and the product arrives really fast for about $30. Then I added a charger and an extra battery and such.

It is definitely my go-to flashlight for everything, including bumps in the night.
