Armytek

Zebralight or Armytek would be a solid option.

Streamlight, skilhunt, Acebeam, armytek usually has model takes cr123, they are affordable and reliable lights.

Agree with the Armytek. The beam is great for close up work, and having a magnet is also very useful, especially when working in tight spaces as you can just stick the light somewhere. Also no need to worry about it breaking, as it's pretty much idiot proof.

I would use Armytek. They have a hard hat mount.

It has a reason that Fenix, Armytek and Zebralight are trusted by cavers, who depend their life on the lights (reasonably with backups though).

Brands like Fenix, Armytek and even Olight might not be popular among enthusiasts, but they do make tough and generally very reliable lights.

But they may not be as bombproof as caver favorite brands like Zebralight, Armytek...etc.

But the armyteks are on another level. To me, even Fenix and acebeam feel a little cheap comparing to them.

They make quality lights. They're definitely no longer the darlings of our little hobby-world, but I still look upon them quite favorably.

boy do I love their durability. It's the light that I say "yeah, but can your phone do this?" and switch it on turbo and throw it as far as I can like a meteor.
