I have bought a new flashlight. It might not be the most exciting topic, but the reason for my purchase is a bit sad. My friend and I were driving home from big band practice when we saw a deer lying on the side of the road. We decided to pull over and check if the deer was alive. The car ahead of us also pulled over, and we discovered that they were the ones who hit the deer.
It turns out that the deer is alive but badly hurt, and, in our opinion, it won't survive. We contacted animal protection, which sent a hunter to kill the deer. Before the hunter arrives, the deer flees into the woods, and we can't see it. We only have our phones as flashlights, which are not bright enough to see into the woods. That is why I chose to buy a flashlight to keep permanently in the car.
I didn't know what to choose or what to look for. I understand that the brightness is measured in lumens, but I didn’t know if I should pick 1000, 2000, or 4000 lumens. I read a couple of articles about lumen, and I found that if the flashlight's brightness is too bright, you almost go blind when you turn the flashlight off. Moreover, I also considered the size of the flashlight.
I have chosen a Coast XP11R. The flashlight has three brightness levels, and you can focus the beam. I also liked the size and the price of the flashlight. I'm delighted with my choice. So far, I haven't tried it in a similar situation yet, and to be honest, I hope I never will.
