Night Strike Swivel LEDNight Strike Swivel LED
OK, it’s not tactical tough and it’s from the drum-beating pink bunny company, but if you need a dual-purpose vehicle and range bag light that can stand on its own, with a light source that swivels 130 degrees, Energizer’s Night Strike Swivel LED flashlight is a good solution. Its LED produces 110 lumens and it can be run in 13 different lighting modes—white, green, red, blue, UV and a variety of multiple-lighting combinations that allow you to emulate all of your worst disco nightmares. On maximum output, a pair of AA batteries will last five hours and if one goes out, DualDrive Technology allows it to continue functioning on the remaining single battery. Contact Energizer:
(800) 383-7323; www.energizer.com
