A Flashlight for the Spring Season - The Nebo Slyde

There is nothing like a good flashlight - I have bought plenty of both, but one I was happy to get in our store to sell is a nice model. Nebo has been with the Alliance Sports Group for ten years, and it has been a productive union.

Thew Slyde is an LED flashlight with 250 lumens in the main light, and 190 lumens in the built in worklight. The light takes 4 AAA batteries - it is no problem finding power for this thing, and a set of rechargable AAA's would be a perfect match. The flashlight mode stays lit for 2 hours, the work light mode provides light for about 3.5 hours.

These are heavy lights - with batteries, they come in at 300 grams, or a little over half a pound, and they have a good solid feel, especially the push button to turn the light off and on and the slide function which reveals the worklight.

The magnetic base is NOT a weak magnet, this thing grips very strongly. It would be nice if the light was dimmable, but that function is not available on this model.

250 Lumens is bright - you do not want to shine this light in your eyes, but it cuts through the darkness very effectively with a measured range of 220 meters, or 18 meters for the work light. It is still quite bright but a much more diffuse beam. These two different lights make this a great addition to your normal fishing equipment and camping equipment.

The magnet at the base of the Slyde is more than strong enough

The light is water resistant, with good rubber seals and dual screw caps that protect the battery compartment.
