Gerber 22-80047 TriTac Tactical Flashlight with White LED, Black Body

by Gerber Legendary Blades

Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Gerber 22-80047 Flashlight is just 4.6-Ounce, you'll hardly notice it among your gear. But when you grasp its black anodized aircraft aluminum housing-with our anti-roll design-and turn on those three L.E.D.s, you'll notice that this is no ordinary light. To the contrary, this is the light for guys who demand that things are always done right. It's powered by two AA batteries, which we include. You can lock-off the switch to prevent accidental turn-on. Plus, you put the switch in permanent mode or intermittent signal mode.

Ok, if you are looking for a flashlight to use as a duty light for traffic stops and building searches then this is probably not what you are looking for. It would certainly be adequate for those tasks, however, when your life is on the line, pay the premium for a good streamlight or surefire.

With all that out of the way. This is very good, surprisingly bright LED flashlight than runs on standard AA batteries which is a big plus. I am not a big fan of the cheap little carrying case, however, you are better off throwing a lanyard around it anyway. This is an excellent light for camping, house tasks and the like. I have not had any issues with the rubber switch and find that it works very well.

This flashlight is bright enough to see but dim enough to be unobtrusive. It's aircraft aluminum design makes it virtually invulnerable to dropping, soaking or any kind of abuse. it has an extremely long battery life around 14 hours solid use. I wouldn't recommend this flashlight if you want something like a headlamp but it does well as a personal work light.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just about perfect (for my usage)..., September 11, 2010

After a catalogue of problems with Maglite AA LED torches, our service team switched to Gerber Tritacs.
The build quality is excellent with a solid feel and hard matte anodised finish. On/Off is by a rubber push button on the tail. This can be used for signalling. Battery tail-cap has an O ring seal. The head and tail have flats to improve grip and prevent rolling.
Battery life is amazing - months rather than days between battery changes.
Light output is in the 'medium' range; this is NOT a super bright tactical Lithium cell kind of torch (hence the long battery life). However the light output is easily adequate for general use. In daylight the LED output fails to amaze, but in the dark they have surprising range and a nice light quality and (fixed) beam pattern.
We've had eight of them for nearly two years now and they are ALL working fine.
Highly recommended as a daily carry / general torch for those not wanting searchlight brightness.
They may also save you some money on batteries ;-)
