It's nicer than a Nitto M12, but also a lot more expensive.<BR/><BR/>ChrisVelo Orangehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02835615331417822722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-1147101956823022062006-05-08T11:25:00.000-04:002006-05-08T11:25:00.000-04:00hello, nice work!

For me it's mostly a matter of going to the store at night or returning from an evening out. But the beam pattern on the Task Force light seems pretty darn good to me, certainly better than my archaic French lights. It's tight and even. Aimed close it might be too small, but if you aim a bit up the road it seems just about right.<BR/><BR/>ChrisVelo Orangehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02835615331417822722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-1146187118221811682006-04-27T21:18:00.000-04:002006-04-27T21:18:00.000-04:00I'm interested in your flash light brackets. I lo...I'm interested in your flash light brackets. I looked up the Task Force 3 watt flashlight online and it appears to be available at our local Lowes also. How good is the light pattern that this flash light puts out? Is it comparable (hopefully better) than the smaller, lighter, LED lights? I currently have a Cateye EL-300 and could use more light.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-1143473520899626412006-03-27T10:32:00.000-05:002006-03-27T10:32:00.000-05:00Chris, great site you have here.
