Summary

The focused beam of white light cuts through the darkness, dances across the fields, follows a line of trees, pauses briefly – was there something? LEP flashlights are an experience; their practical use comes second. Exploring your surroundings with a "pencil beam" is simply a lot of fun.

The finger-sized Vastlite Minima Bow is likely the smallest LEP flashlight currently on the market. You won't find a flashlight this small – just 71 × 20 mm – with a range of up to 750 meters anywhere else. It's operated by twisting the head for on and off ("twisty"), allowing you to switch between two brightness levels and a strobe mode.

I think this is the one Countycomm advertised a month or so ago. They are currently out of stock. The page says "coming soon" but I think they may have actually had some for sale at the time of the initial announcement.

Yes, that's the same light. Countycomm sells all kind of products under their brand, for a higher price, of course. Their photos are great, but the description...

this hardened steel ring is designed as a persuasion tool
