See if you have a Northern Tool store in the area. I picked up an handheld LED spot light that is both red and high/low white. I don't recall the lumens, but it's plenty bright and lasts a very long time. Versatility of color is huge.

Sent: Tuesday, March 11, 2014 4:15 PM To: CnClist Subject: Stus-List Handheld spot/flood light discussion There have been a lot of advances in lights since I bought my existing handheld spot light. Been thinking about a new one. REQUIREMENT: 12 VDC plug in. NOT rechargeable. Probably LED. I'd like some discussion on the selection criteria for a new one; not just "I have this one and I like it". * For instance, can you have too many lumens? I think you can. How bright is bright enough? Too much light reflects and causes night blindness. * LED vs halogen vs ?? * If LED, number of bulbs. Color? Blue white? White? * Width of beam. Basically spot vs flood light * Any important considerations I didn't mention Finally, any lights that you think particularly suit the needs of sailors. Dennis C. Touche' 35-1 #83
