>>2658925Probably the best bang for your buck in terms of Chinese brands is Sofirn, and they make a very solid L-shaped flashlight which they also sell with a headmount (I have used this with a mountaineering helmet several times, fyi), the SP40. This flashlight has a very wide spill with average throw.
