welcome back to Steve Robb reviews today we're gonna have some fun we're gonna talk
about flashlights I've been using flashlights for approximately 50 years yeah 50 years the
technology and flashlights have come a long way I want to show you this flashlight right here
this is my old mag light and I tell you what this thing is bulletproof and it's got the old
fashioned bulb in there there you go that's the old technology and then I moved up to all these
different LED ones and they're terrific look at that everybody comes to my camp I always give him
a flashlight and I don't know I put my own name on they're all color-coded but yeah these ones
here they work great too and they're all LED and that batteries last forever in them so these are
the flashlights that I bring up to my camp every year and I got them all over the place scattered
all over just in case you need a flashlight and if you're an off-grid place like I am well you need a
flashlight now this is another one this and well that's the million dollar flashlight fuse guys
never seen this before I'll put a link down below to that bit about why this is a million dollar
flashlight but this here is the same technology to you know just the the old I don't even know
what you call these bulbs anymore but I don't even know if you can buy them I'm not too sure so over
the last couple of years this is about maybe seven eight years old and this is just ideal if you take
a look right inside there there's that new cob LED guys this is the way to go and I just kept
a small battery on here the Milwaukee battery and if you want it more stable just throw that
battery on there and it makes it a lot more stable so yeah there the different type of batteries and
different type of bulbs and now I will only go with the cob style bulb well it's called cob Co B
style LED and it's just one particular element and this is actually it in a big farm you can see the
size of that sucker and this is bright so about myself another one of these guys this is it's just
terrific now the reason why I have two is because I'm gonna leave one here at the house and bring
one up to the camp and I like them because the style of the bulb and now that I have you know
the 20 volt batteries no sense me just you know letting it sit around here when I'm not using
them half the time it's good to use the batteries and I know on the Milwaukee I get a whole season
on one battery guys one battery I mean I can't get over it so what I'm gonna do is I'm going to
take this out of the packaging and I'm gonna fire a battery on it let's take a look well here we go
here with the DeWalt and you can tell here's the DeWalt there's the Milwaukee and they're pretty
much the same the only difference is the battery and like I say you can put the big battery on the
Milwaukee if you want there's a huge difference in the light beam on these and the Milwaukee is
more of a big flood lamp and this one here guys it's more of a targeted beam and they're both
great the only thing about the Milwaukee I didn't like is it didn't have a hook on the top here to
hang up and I thought that was great but on the other hand the Milwaukee has a magnetic spot so
that if you have a magnetic area you can just put it on here and it will stick to it and it's pretty
good now this one here I guarantee you it'll last me my whole season and of course it goes in all
different directions and it is just fantastic what I like about these style of flashlights today is
you take one like this or whatever and no matter what you do it unless you're locking with it and
using it for that purpose I don't really care for them anymore I mean if you're going to the
outhouse or something you know you can't put it this way you have to actually just try and stand
it up on it's in and then all the lights go into the ceiling this kind of stuff so I mean these
do have a good purpose if you're just walking with them now I'll be quite honest with you I'm
not a professional on flashlights and lumens and you know candle power and all that kind of
stuff all I want is flashlight that I can just see where I'm walking going my own way I don't
need a flashlight that's going to say it'll go a thousand feet and all this kind of stuff and
I'm not really interested in that I just wanted light on my area and the majority of the time if
I'm in a spot or I have to do some work both of these are great you just plunk them down where
you want pointing where you want and that's it and you've got a nice light that's steady for you and
you can see what you're doing and for me that's ideal and there's no more buying batteries yeah
I mean sure these lasts a long time I get about three years actually out of a set of batteries
in these but I'm not buying batteries and I'm utilizing the rechargeable batteries that I have
so I just thought I'd bring you along today and show you the new Dewalt flashlights I got and it
is terrific I'm glad I bought a second one and for you in the world the prices are going to be
different all over the place but I did buy this and it was roughly thirty two dollars including
tax and I thought that was a good deal so really when you think about it it's pretty light and
it does the job guys like I mean I'm not gonna go turn lights out and show flashlights all over the
place and you know that kind of stuff and it's just strictly on/off and that's all I want I'm
not you know no fancy guy with flashlights thanks for joining me here today if you haven't seen this
