danc Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 I bought one of these almost a year ago at CTC and I have to say it's the best small flishlight that I've owned. It's rated at an amazing 140 lumens. I've read reviews on this flashlight, and many compare it to ones costing over $100.00. It takes 3 AAA batteries. I use Ni-MH rechargeables. On sale this week for $17.49. Click the link and read the reviews. Then go and pick one up. You won't be disappointed. Noma Flashlight
Roy Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 They look great Dan. I have a couple of Underwater Kinetics lights now and doubt I'll never need another flashlight.
danc Posted January 31, 2011 Author Report Posted January 31, 2011 I happened to pop into a CTC store today and for $17.49, I picked up a second one for around the house. My other one goes to work with me every day. Just a heads up for anyone looking for one, they are now rebranded as "Garrison" instead of "Noma".
fishing n autograph Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 I use the LED flash lights from home depot. A pack of 6 costs 9.99, they're really bright and I use them as my back up light at work
Governator Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 It sound like an excellent flashlight. I love my 3D maglite but its pretty heavy at times. Wouldn't mind a substitute that takes AAA batteries.
adempsey Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 Nice, was looking for a new flashlight. I saw one today that was going for $349!! Not sure who would need that, but wow....
Jds63 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Posted February 2, 2011 bought the Garrison Flashlight at CT, wow it throws some major light should come in real handy on Temagami later this month
smally21 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Posted February 2, 2011 fenix has some pretty good lights, they are brighter and last longer than any maglite in my considerable collection. a 1AA pocketlight throws about 140 lumens. i dont bother going with the more powerful cr123 batteries just because of availability. they have a canadian distributor in the woodstock area, and 60$ for a tactical light isn't bad. when its dark, and you really need to see, i dont mind spending more. my kids use the bulk pack lights i cant beleive how long they last, cuz they are always left on!
frozen-fire Posted February 2, 2011 Report Posted February 2, 2011 Picked this up a couple days ago. Thanks DanC. I'm not very satisfied with the build quality...but holy light output!!!
Fang Posted February 2, 2011 Report Posted February 2, 2011 picked up my first one 2 years ago when my browning fell apart after the moose hunt. Went out and bought another immediately for the boat. Just a great flashlight and have never seen another even $100+ that throws that much light. Lights up the trial like a full size transport truck with the high beams on. Just picked up my third this week, a nice yellow one.

lookinforwalleye Posted February 2, 2011 Report Posted February 2, 2011 I think I`ll pick one up for the boat!
adempsey Posted February 2, 2011 Report Posted February 2, 2011 I picked up two as well. Good price for the amount of light output. Thanks again for the tip, I wouldn't have even knew about it without your post. Cheers, FL
