And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

For those who prefer some heft with their high beams
"Batter Up !!" Yes, those puppies will leave a mark when swung or prodded into face. Ours has an amazing ability to suck dry D batteries, even when unused. Call it battery black hole, not sure what we are doing wrong.
As part of our camp supplies, we keep a Cold Steel Spetsnaz shovel with Mini-MagLite inserted onto end. We drilled out handle so as to insert flashlight handle inside shovel. Great for those late night 'dump runs', a roll of toilet paper easily fits over the handle. Just Scoop - Poop - Wipe and Cover.
My father was a park ranger and he had one that had been modified by some company, where they removed one of the batteries and installed a pepper spray, with a nozzle extending through the glass, and a sliding thumb switch that would activate the pepper spray. none of the drunk rowdy visitors ever had any idea that they had a pepper spray canister pointed right at their face the entire time the ranger was telling to take their booze and go away.
That's a good flashlight! I have one under the seat of my RV.
ReplyDeleteI've had one for over 40 years and it still works perfectly. Even after being used as a night stick.
ReplyDeleteI have the 3 D-cell LED version. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000IXBUCQ
