Why LED Flashlights Trump Traditional Incandescent Bulbs

January 21, 2014

There’s a lot of talk recently about the federal government’s phasing out the manufacture and sale of incandescent light bulbs for home and business use in favor of more efficient options including LED lights. The move has both supporters and detractors en masse. But while the controversy brews, there is one place where LED lights make far more sense than incandescent bulbs.

Any overnight camper, nighttime hunter or fisherman, or overzealous hiker who loses track of time knows that a dependable flashlight can be a lifesaver. When darkness sets in, it may be a long way back your campsite or your ride home and a reliable light source is essential. Trouble is, conventional flashlights with incandescent bulbs are notorious for going dim and sucking up battery life.

That’s why Sarge Knives offers a full line of rugged, durable LED flashlights for camping, hunting, fishing and all outdoor use. They shine brighter, burn cooler and last longer than their standard counterparts, which means you won’t be stuck with only the moonlight to get you safely back to camp. We’ve got handheld, pocket, wind-up and head-wearable options to choose from. Our 130-lumen, 3-watt Cree LED flashlight is a top choice for avid outdoors enthusiasts. It offers adjustable focus optics, allowing you to adjust the beam from floodlight to a narrower focus, and toggle between strobe, low-power and high-power settings. And our Wind UP Flashlight is a great backup when you’re out of batteries. A 30-second hand crank affords you 15 minutes of light.

Don’t be left in the dark again. Check out Sarge Knives’ LED flashlight options.

It might be small, (it’s 2″) but it’s the right size to light up the darkness. Sarge’s new 6 LED Key Chain Black Aluminum Flashlight offers brighter performance, longer battery life and lower maintenance costs because of its LED bulbs.

This key chain flashlight provides 8 hours of continuous run time with the included batteries. (Plus, we include an extra set of batteries … just because we’re nice like that.) The compact lightweight housing is only 2” in length and is the perfect size when you need to keep a flashlight in a small place … like your purse, pocket, glove compartment, desk drawer or clipped to your backpack or laptop bag. (It’s the right gift for someone who is always losing stuff under their desk and car seat and it’s ideal to help you get your front door unlocked on those dark days.)

The flashlight is engravable so it’s a great gift for office employees, organization members and null.
