Since I'm not able to justify purchasing or even being able to source NOD's for some night/24 games coming up at the Prince Edward Complex in Picton.

I'm looking into torches that turn night into day. ie. 200+ lumen torches. I have a set of the Costco tech light "160 lumen" as a weapon light and another as secondary illumination.

I'm wondering do I really need one?

I'm looking at either the Fenix TK15

Or a Surefire 6PX Dual output

The surefire is more expensive but well it's a surefire and it comes with a box of batteries. I messed around with the Fenix at the sportsman show in Toronto and it seemed pretty solid and good value with a Cree LED.

My next question is about the rechargeable CR123A batteries and how there can be issues with cooking/breaking some lamps. I know not to cheap out on batteries but rechargeable batteries seem to be the cost effective solution.

Any thoughts or alternatives?

Thanks!
