Any fellow survivalists utilize their truck?

That's close to my worst nightmare. Add anything relating to spiders and I would die.

that is tits ^

 

Bet it works good. I was in 29 palms and the AC went out. Took a fan put it infront of the open freezer door, cranked it as low as it would go. Worked better then any of us expected.

 

Haha that's some serious ingenuity right there.
That's great.

 

Or, buy a 6k btu room air conditioner. Keep it handy until the power is out and install in a bedroom. Power with your generator when the grid is down/ hurricane season. End of season, room air is about 50% off. A half-ton of cold dry air beats 0.01 ton of more humid cold air.

 

YESSSS!!!

 

Dudes, you need to go to Going Gear and check out their Cyber Monday deals.

SureFire P2X 500 lumen lights for $41 off and free shipping. Crazy good deals and a great group of guys to work with.

www.goinggear.com

If I didn't already have a P2X, I'd get one...hell...I may get another for this price. There are other SureFire, Nitecore, Olight, etc. deals, too.

Thanks for passing that on -- on it as we speak!!!

 

Happy to help!

I've got a new P2X coming my way. Figure I'll keep this one in the truck. Who doesn't need 500 lumens with them at all times?!

Fink

 

Ha! Thats even better than the ones I saw in Georgia growing up. Usually it was just a exit hole cut in the styrofoam. That gutter downspout is genius, especially if its vector-able.

 

500? Rook.

 

Shucks, most of the stuff I saw were sold out. Particularly rechargeable 18650s

 

I know. I'm still looking for the right 500+ light.

I'm obsessed with the form factor of these P2X/Fury lights. The one on my shotgun is awesome.

I did enough fumbling around in the dark at the fire department. Light up the night.

Yeah - a lot of the really good stuff was picked over. If you see something that's sold out that you still want, see if it will let you add it to your cart and backorder it with the coupon code. I did that with a few other things and the orders went through fine.

Fink

 

That escalated quickly. Didn't mean to come off with any sort of "badassery". I was really just joking about fumbling around in the dark too much. Being able to find your way without a flashlight is key, obviously. Learned that the hard way as a FF.

I got the dual output P2X for a reason - so I don't constantly blind myself with the full output. Given that this is a truck light, or so I say now, it will be used should I have to pull over and change a flat, help somebody else change a flat, find my keys when I drop them every other day between my seat and console or on the ground, etc.

Ironically, the only reason I posted the info in here about the Cyber Monday/Tuesday deals on the flashlights is because I know the majority of the guys that browse this thread are gadget/flashlight nuts. Wasn't necessarily condoning them as survival tools.

i find if you just have enough light..your good haha

Look no more: MTE M3-2I 1,000 or 1,200 lumen on rechargeable 18650 or CR213 for less than $100! Medium mode is 200 lumens and trail (low) mode is only 60 lumens. I absolutely LOVE these things and lots of local LE are going to them. I sold my Fury & won't go back. I've got these on a few rifles (1,000 lumen version as 1,200 wasn't an option years ago when I got them) and they are easily the best value in lights if you need that form factor for that use. Check out his YouTube torture test videos where he drives nails into a 2x4 with the body and then the lens!

 

Holy balls. That looks incredible.

Sorry if I missed it, but what are the dimensions of that light? I'm looking for one that I could easily keep on my person. The Fury is perfect for that, with the exception of the head being slightly bigger than I'd like eek.

Looks like MTE also has one with a pocket clip that looks pretty decent.

Fink

 

MTE has gobs of different form factors and one is bound to meet your needs. For an EDC my personal favorite is a Feniz PD32 Ultimate edition which is 740 lumens and takes either CR123 or a rechargeable 18650 which is what I use. That light is my personal favorite for EDC and I've gone through lots of lights. I also like using 18650 because I have invested in a few and I can swap them out from time to time and still use my lights w/o worrying about burning through $3 batteries regularly. Greg does a deal on that light I linked to for LE that is the light, rechargeable 18650 batteries (x4) and charger for $100 total last I checked. It's am AMAZING deal on a killer setup. Pair that with a Fenix PD32 and you've got a fantastic combo for less than you'd pair for most weapon lights alone.

 

Great info! Thanks, dude.

I'll likely own one of these MTE lights before the end of the week.
