Product Description

The ability to bring high-end technology to a compact, fully-redesigned, extremely powerful light source is finally here. The CSI REDLINE is our brightest flashlight to date, 220 lumens of pure white light to be exact. In automobiles, redlining is reaching the peak of its performance; whereas we, with NEBO REDLINE are harnessing the maximum power of this flashlight with 220 lumens of blinding bright light. (NOTE: Anything above 50 lumens within a 10 yard distance may cause temporary blindness when viewed directly.)

The REDLINE has 5 lighting modes, 100% white light (220 lumens), 50% white light (110 lumens), 10% white light (22 lumens), S.O.S. mode (220 lumens), or emergency strobe mode (220 lumens). This flashlight has a 4x adjustable beam that works with any light setting to change the REDLINE from a flood light to illuminate everything within a 20 yard distance, or to a spot light to focus up to 150 yards.

The bezel of the REDLINE controls the adjustable beam. The red ring of the NEBO REDLINE enhances all of the features of this flashlight. (1) One high power LED bulb outputs 220 lumens of light (bulbs rated for 110,000+ hours of life) (2) Emergency strobe mode (3) S.O.S. Flash Mode - LED flashes S.O.S. Morse Code sequence (4) Anodized aircraft grade aluminum weather-proof compact body design (5) Magnetic base for hands-free lighting (6) Aggressive self-defense face (7) Rear glow-in-the-dark button

Ponce, I got four of these about 6 months ago and I think they were about the same price. Let me say this, for the size they're awesome.

The number ONE most favorite feature is the self-defense. Imagine an extremely bright strobe light flashing in your face, it's blinding. So with a 45 in the right hand and the left wrist underneath it with that strobe flashing, you definitely have a HUGE upper hand against anyone interested in harming you. Just my 2 cents.

Here's a picture of one of mine attached to my truck with my hand showing you the size.

Quality usually isn't that great, but if you get a couple of them you will have one guaranteed working, and also have a few different models to play with. Usually ones that don't work can be fixed, just clean the contacts or buy the tail clicky, the driver board, whatever you need separately.

I spend a lot of time outdours at night checking on cattle in the spring. The brightest and lowest cost flashlights can be had at wallmart. About six bucks for the flashlight and battery. They are bright and are almost like a spot light. I also carrry a .357 Glock when I'm out with my flashlight.;D

I've never bought from tmart, but I do own an ultrafire light (with 2W ultraviolet module). The light is SURPRISINGLY high quality considering what I paid for it (around $20 with shipping). I'm giving serious thought to buying the above light and reviewing it.

Went through that late last night, some incredible deals, power,
I would say most of them are pretty good. I really like the new
led's with regular AA, very impressive.

What I use regularly.
2 3Dcell maglites, one in vehicle other in office, blinding, throws a spot lite 100 yards,
great for cracking someone in the head, great balance, must have flashlight IMO
2 2AA maglites, great for camping, use as candle, read book, have a 3AA led maglite,
very good light but too bright for use as candle, blinding
main pocket light is Innova single AA with new led's , 20 bucks, very impressive,
another Fenix 100 lumen single AA , super bright, throws far, but Innova is enough for pocket
Just got a Surefire defender 200 lumen with the lithium batteries, too bright for regular use,
Amazing power in your fist, light and punch power, lol . I paid big bucks, it is a great weapon in your pocket. No regrets getting it. The Inova AA for 20 bucks is the most
used and most impressive, even the older version was great, but the new led's are unbelievably bright. They will blind you or an opponent up close. Even my keychain leatherman AAA is blinding. lol

In a flash light thread, you guys got to be kidding me.

GofD, I agree with your assessment, that he is trolling you too,
he wants you to respond like that. He goes way back , he is an old
gim enemy hiding and waiting, was active last year then disappeared.

I wanted to respond in the money thread, debt is the tool to enslave
and destroy us, whoever does no get that is not legit, same with
changing our culture and beliefs through mass hostile immigration,
same end game, people obviously are not being brought in to help the
" legitimate banking cartels " , rofl, you have to be a clown to believe
this on here or just a plain troll.

There are other trolls on here too if people haven't noticed.
I can only assume you are referring to me. So I just wanted to say that the only thing I "troll" for, or have ever trolled for, is good discussion.
I was as supprised as anyone about the Generals banning. I thought we were just havin' a lil' late-nite fun, least 'til the Sheriff showed up anyways.

But you know, it's not my rules and I don't get to interpret them. That's the Sheriffs job. So if you can't conduct yourself in a civil matter when having a discussion, oh well. You get what you get, and that's what he got for his potty mouth.
...and I, in no way, wanted him to respond as he did. He either responded via his own free-will, or because Jesus somehow told him to. lol Which do you think it was?
Personally, I can't see how blaming bad behavior on Jesus is cool.

Although I will admit that what he posted had me lololololing in a big way and I merely tried to be funny back to him. I mean, I even told him over and over that I was just joking, but now I wonder if he could have been being serious........naw. No way, not the General.

As far as GIM goes, give it break already. I never even posted on there. I only read stuff there before the implosion.

Gaillo, since GoD is our first honorary ban on the new forum, can we have past bans reset? Since this is a new forum, maybe it should be GoD's first ban. We could 'reboot' all and any past bans. This way, it should only be a 3 day ban. Thought I'd ask. New forum and all.;D

If good I will score if not I will buy more preps.

Wait for Down1's review... his post above seems to indicate he just ordered. I'm about 50/50 right now as to whether or not I'll order... I need another flashlight about as bad as I need a nailgun to my skull - but once a flashaholic, always a flashaholic! ;) If I order it will be mid-week, which means next week for a review depending on free time between work projects.

Begrieving snow falls in the dead morning
Stray dog's howls and the footsteops of Geta pierce the air
I walk with the weight of the Milky Way on my shoulders
But an umbrella that holds onto the darkness is all there is.
I'm a woman who walks at the brink of life and death
Who's emptied my tears many moons ago.
All the compassion tears and dreams
The snowy nights and tomorrow hold no meaning
I've immersed my body in the river of venegance

My loyalty now is to Smith and Wesson flashlights, American made. The three things, minimum, I always have on me at work are a knife, black electrical tape...and a flashlight. That flashlight, a Smith and Wesson, recently joined me on an unplanned swim I took..ie, it was submerged underwater for several minutes. That flashlight is rated water resistant. It was completely underwater for several minutes and still works. In fact, I didn't even have to replace the batteries. This flashlight is a keeper, imo.

The strobe feature has interesting possibilities ... perhaps that most have not thought of.

It is watertight so would be a good signal aid if left swimming in the wake with a good view of the stern of the cruise ship.

Years ago at a beach party (where swimmers wore only lightweight nylon swim trunks) after dark and to the tunes of a beach band ... one such participant while gyrating on the dance floor with a native gal, drops a FireFly strobe into his crotch cavity (under his trunks) for an interesting dance effect. The native gal took 2-3 more steps, turned crimson and departed as though the dance itself was not sexually suggestive alone.

It's nothing fancy, but it's small, inexpensive, extremely reliable, and imo, very well made. It has a good click to it, and has gained my trust. I have a pocket in my workpants I keep it in and can deploy it in an instant. I initially ordered 2, one to have as a backup. I'm planning on ordering several more actually.

Inexpensive pocket size flashlights are an essential tool, I believe.

Nice light. Takes 4 C batteries. Battery life: 8 hours on high, 120 hours on low or strobe. Wanted something with decent battery life, and respectable brightness.

I'd like something like that which took 18650s.

I read through all the flashlight threads, and was going to go the 18650 mega lumen (overseas) bargain route, then I discovered in some cases those flashlights will not work at all on the bright setting unless you use 18650's, and others will work but don't get very bright. My formula has ended up sacrifice some brightness for battery life, have a widely available bullet battery caliber, some sort of distinction with the optics is a bonus.
