Why Buy A Tactical Flashlight
Why Buy A Tactical Flashlight
Sometimes I can imagine someone looking at tactical LED flashlights and saying, "why do I need one of those?" I have to imagine it, because I'm around people who know and are excited about flashlights every day, who've incorporated them into their daily lives and have no interest in going back. The truth is, once you've brought tactical lights into your life, you start to wonder how you used to get along without them.
You need to be able to see. At home, at work, on the road, on a trip, indoors, outdoors, anywhere you go. Unless you have some sort of visual handicap, sight is your most important sense. It's so important that sunglasses have become all but ubiquitous - you always have this item around to help you see when there's too much light. So why don't you have something to help you see when there's too little light?
There may be nothing more sensible or practical as an everyday tool than a flashlight. And if you're going to have a flashlight as a tool, you might as well make sure it's going to work, and it's going to last. This is where there's a pivotal difference between the cheap, plastic, low-quality lights you find sitting next to the batteries at your local grocery or convenience store, and the tactical lights that are currently storming peoples' garages across the country. What would your sunglasses be worth to you, if they weren't any good after being rained on? Or dropped?
A tactical flashlight brings the sturdiness and convenience of day-to-day tools like sunglasses to your flashlight. They're conveniently small, averaging between four and six inches long. And they're impossibly tough. You can drop them, you can run them over, you can dunk them underwater, and they will still light. Plus, most of them come with a warranty of around five years. So even if you do manage to break one, unless you threw it into a wheat thresher or something, you can get it fixed.
Still not sure? We may have just the light for you. It's the just-released FlashlightZ Beacon. Made to bridge the gap between tactical lights and more consumer-grade products. The Beacon has the same rugged durability and ultra-bright LED as a high-end tactical light, but without the frills that would normally bring up the price. Plus, it's made to be a convenient everyday tool, so it comes with an adjustable zoom AND it's fully rechargeable.
