Nebo Redline Tactical Flashlight Strobe S.O.S. 220 Lumen #5581 with Adjustable Tripod Flashlight Holder Overview

Description The ability to bring high-end technology to a compact, fully-redesigned, extremely powerful light source is finally here. The REDLINETM is our brightest flashlight to date, 220 lumens of pure white light to be exact. In automobiles, redlining is reaching the peak of its performance; whereas we, with NEBO REDLINETM are harnessing the maximum power of this flashlight with 220 lumens of blinding bright light. (NOTE: Anything above 50 lumens within a 10 yard distance may cause temporary blindness when viewed directly.) The REDLINETM has 5 lighting modes, 100% white light (220 lumens), 50% white light (110 lumens), 10% white light (22 lumens), S.O.S. mode (220 lumens), or emergency strobe mode (220 lumens). This flashlight has a 4x adjustable beam that works with any light setting to change the REDLINETM from a flood light to illuminate everything within a 20 yard distance, or to a spot light to focus up to 150 yards. The bezel of the REDLINETM controls the adjustable beam. The red ring of the NEBO REDLINETM enhances all of the features of this flashlight.The Adjustable Tripod Flashlight Holder is the perfect companion to any NEBO flashlight. Fitting all 1" diameter flashlights, the flashlight holder provides convenient hands-free lighting. The tripod head rotates 360° and tilts 90° to direct light in virtually any direction. The tripod is equipped with 2-section rubber tipped legs that extend to a height of 9 inches

Surefire S/F G2X Tac Flashlight (Black) Overview

The G2X Tactical, a polymer-body version of 6PX Tactical, is designed specifically for tactical use. Providing simplicity of operation and tremendous illuminating power in a small package, it uses a high-efficiency LED - virtually immune to failure since there's no filament to burn out or break - to generate a brilliant, penetrating, perfectly pre-focused 200-lumen beam.The G2X is activated by classic tactical tailcap switch - press for momentary-on, twist for constant-on. The tough Nitrolon polymer body is smoothly sculpted for a comfortable, secure grip and resists scratches, abrasion and corrosion. A polycarbonate micro-textured reflector delivers a comparatively wider beam with generous peripheral light. SureFire also makes a dual-output version of this light with a two-stage click-type tailcap switch, the G2X Pro.
