im looking at the SL:1 model. £60 is alot of money for a torch, but they are hella useful for work. i already have one small torch, its cool, but sometimes not enough. this diode technology looks mint. they recon 5 miles but id be inclinded to take that with a pinch of salt.
any views?

id use it for work. going thro lofts and shit and u cant be arsed to rig up a light, so it needs to be bright with some degree of a spread. im doing some serious torch digging. i already have one mini sized torch which is quite cool, i think i maybe just wasting money thro bordem

aye... the bigger ones with decent spread are brilliant, almost indestructable. mate baught one from work cos we sell em, he got the stupidly sized one thats about 3 feet long cos he got mugged while walking his dog one night. he now carries that around and feels a lot safer. its like a baseball bat with an ultra bright end on it.
