5/10    A flashlight I've owned for over 20 years finally burned out its
        bulb which gives me an excuse to buy a new LED flash light. Anyone
        have recommendations?
        \_ The Gerber Inifinity is pretty cool.
        \_ preferred form factor?
        \_ the Inova ones are pretty sweet and sturdy: http://www.inovalight.com
           \_ I second that.  I have three Surefire (P6, M2 with LED
              conversion, and G2).  Every single one of them had
              assembly flaw.  Chinese workers getting paid pennies an
              hour would have assembled them better, but no, it's made
              in the U.S.  It's WAY overpriced, too.  Also, if you use
              it a lot, you'll want rechargeable.  There are CR123A-sized
              rechargeable Li-Ion (slightly higher voltage, about half the
              capacity of non-rechargeable type), but I've never tried it.
              I also have Inova light and it's much cheaper and just as
              good, if not better.  Well, Surefire does use high quality
              materials.
        \_ If it's a quality flashlight (e.g. Mag) you can buy another bulb.
           \_ maglights are shit.
              \_ ?  I have mags in my cars, and have had several of all
                 sizes.  Never had a problem.  Why s hit?  -John
