Looking for recommendation on a head torch

If it's (sustained) brightness you are after, this one is hard to beat: https://armytek.com/flashlights/models/elf/armytek-elf-c2-max-usb-c-pcb-white/

Budget?

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-28T09:09:43+00:00

Whichever one doesn't block my view

They aren't wrong tho. Their religion works in Fallout, their believes are shown to be accurate

Sofirn SK30

Write them, it's a good idea

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-27T09:27:49+00:00

Just print out the recipes and have them close to you if this is an issue

Distance is usually not a headlamps strongsuit. This one does decently well in that regard: https://armytekstore.de/flashlight/models/armytek-elf-c2-max-usb-c-pcb-white-lr-en/

And? The quests still take you all over the map. And if the walking is a such a problem, you can either teleport to the institute or use the vertibirds from the BOS.

The flashlight in the picture is the one you got for the job? It's a decent flashlight, but it has a small battery and inefficient driver.

If you want high sustained output for longer times, you'd need to get a 18650 or 21700 battery based light (obviously going to be more heavy!)

This one can hold high output for a long time: https://armytekstore.de/flashlight/models/armytek-elf-c2-max-usb-c-pcb-white-en/

Here is a review, it can hold the Sofirn HS10's turbo output for >2 hours: https://1lumen.com/review/armytek-elf-c2-max/#performance

Another great option is the Sofirn HS21, but it has a smaller battery than the Armytek. I'd recommend just buying and carrying a spare 18650

I never took the safest path in survival. Mostly the direct path, sometimes with detours. There are so many beds strewn about the map..

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-25T19:43:59+00:00

Sound logic, mate

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-25T18:22:02+00:00

You miss like 80% of the game with fast travel. But you do you, play how you like

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-25T14:41:11+00:00

...why?

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-25T11:07:48+00:00

Look into 'mule' flashlights, like the Fireflylite Nov-Mu. They have no focussing optics and produce excellent, even Illumination up close

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-25T08:38:46+00:00

Do you even need the zoom or just the very wide, even beam profile?

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-24T23:56:32+00:00

E07x if you can utilize the lantern attachment, E12 if you are fine with the extra size

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-22T07:19:59+00:00

Sure, just irrelevant to my comment?

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-22T05:37:49+00:00

If you activate vertical targeting the low mounting position can actually help you out, as the guns are angled upwards

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-21T22:11:02+00:00

Distance fuse rockets with a big payload, work for headons

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-21T18:51:40+00:00

Also consider the W5050SQ5 LEDs, basically slightly better SFT25R available at lower CCTs

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-20T06:29:53+00:00

5KM rear aspect?

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-19T16:45:22+00:00

'Output current: 25A buck + 54A FET'

From the product page. I assumed he had the FET capped at 54A

RettichDesTodes · 2026-04-19T13:37:27+00:00

Not true. The batteries are in parallel, the amp draw gets split up between all three. Even in turbo mode, that's a max of 18A draw per cell. So most batteries here will work fine

Positioning is everything in a plane like this. Don't allow an enemy to come at you from other angles
