    Maryland, let's make it a better place.
    Buy it here: http://dro.ps/b/oeSfx79/l


    Great deal, at about 1/2 the best price I could find. Amazon has it for $60.

    I really like the magnetic charger, its the best available.

    The magnet sticks to anything metal; like the body of your car while you change a tire or to warn oncoming traffic.

    Has an internal rechargeable battery, or you can use the common cr123 battery.

    Has the most current and best CREE LED available.


    Perhaps one of the best EDC lights, and for around $30, you can't beat it.

    Here's Jenny's review of the RS16, and its slightly larger big brother.

    That looks good too, but at almost twice the price as the Klarus deal from Massdrop. I think the flashlight deal I posted is over.

    I have the OLIGHT S1 Baton but ordered the Klarus after seeing Minuteman's post. When it gets here, I'll do a comparison.
    Minuteman got me hooked on MassDrop.

    I like Olight, very good and less expensive than Surefire. Will be interested in your review. Please post here. :thumbsup:
