Throw.
@kundetjenesten9 ай бұрын
For general use I prefer flood. What is within 20-30 meters is much more interesting than what is 700 away in the vast majority of cases, and taking a walk in pitch dark with a narrow beam is like a blind man using one of those sticks going back and forth constantly just to not trip over something. But that said; I like throwers too and I wouldn't want to be without one, I just find them to be of more limited use.
@GreyManPrepping9 ай бұрын
@WeldingForJesus I appreciate you sharing your perspective. I agree that having both is probably the best bet. Most of my lights are flood, but it's nice to have a few long-distance throwers as well. 👍
@kundetjenesten9 ай бұрын
@@GreyManPrepping I've been on a shopping spree over the last couple of weeks, a few of my old lights either gave up on me or simply disappeared, so I bought "a few" new ones, and this video of yours made me want a Javelot too (great work! 👍), but I have a Marauder mini (why choose flood or spot when you can have both?) and a Seeker 4 pro in the mail tomorrow on top of the 3S I got first, so if I order the Javelot before my better half has had some time to cool off I risk having it thrown at me. 🤣
@GreyManPrepping9 ай бұрын
@WeldingForJesus I totally understand that. lol 😆 I picked up the Marauder 2 a few months back, and man, it's a beast. Pricey, but like you said, best of both worlds for sure. I also got seeker 4 as well. Did a review on that one not to long ago. I put that one on my Truck bag. 👍
