And yes, this is the halloween edition. They just had that on their site when I wanted to buy the flashlight, so I thought why not. I think it looks pretty funny. It was technically delivered on halloween as well, but I wasn’t at home at the time. That’s why I only have it since last saturday. Anyway, it’s a pretty nice flashlight, really bright for the size:
It just feels so nice to use and gives you the impression that you have something high quality in your hand.
Also thanks to y’all for making posts in this sub. Looking aroung this community let me to get this flashlight. It’s nice to have a community with people who find flashlights interesting and make good recommendations.
Yea, the battery I get in the clone for $10 is unknown. I mean the whole thing is $10, lol.

Everyone should have a 72 Hour bag. It’s a Red Cross idea - never know when you’ll have an emergency: house fire, flood from a waterline breaking, etc. This year I used my 72 Hour bag for hospital visits: family member got sick, friend had a baby sooner than expected, etc. I use an old backpack. It has a flashlight, phone chargers, cables, external batteries, etc, in addition to what the Red Cross recommends.

I don’t follow everything the Red Cross recommends, that’s a starting point. For example I keep water in the car, and carry a metal water bottle anyway. My starting point is “what would I need for 3 days if I had to leave the house because a water main flooded it?” Fairly mundane.
