Yup, shipping is only 8.95 too. I'm actually happy with my Fenix TA30 too. Just under 8" and has the blinding STROBE feature that causes disorientation if you find anyone outside in your bushes Less than $90, but Young Guns is like $112.

I just got my Fenix TK11 r2 in the mail today. 240lumens is ridiculously bright! Walked the dogs tonight and blinded myself Smaller (about 5.3"), brighter, and cheaper than the TA30, still less than $100 shipped, 2cell light. This is the one that ranked the Best flashlight of 2009.

Only drawback is there's no Strobe feature, but the beam is so bright, you don't need the strobe to blind someone.

Thanks Sonny. I saw those, but they take the rechargables only. I bought a box of 50 CR123 batteries and dont wanna buy different ones, as well as a charger.

I did find www.solarforcestore.com. $50 for 300lumens.

So what are YOU buying?

300 lumens is VERY strong... no battery life, and if you go 600+ lumens? expect battery life under 1/2hr...

If you wanna stay under $100, you can scratch SureFire! Mailman just dropped off my Solarforce package. You can buy one of them if you like it.

I'll try and stop by SB tonight.
