    kind of a long shot maybe but does anyone have any experience with them? in particular im looking at getting the Olight X7 Marauder. I think it would be great for night fishing in the boat and for the deer shack. overkill? absolutely, but it looks pretty cool. Ive seen they are coming out with an Olight X9 Marauder that features 25,000 Lumen. That’s nuts

    Holly balls. 9000 lumens on th x7 and 25000 on the x9. I have a cheepo from Walmart that’s 900 lumens. Its almost dangerous. Like a gun…always point in a safe direction. I can’t imagine 9k or 25 k. Seems like overkill…I want one

    25K lumens? WTF? How does that compare to the lights on the tugs on the Mississippi? )

    I have a Fenix bike light that does 30 seconds at 1850lumens, it get hot as heck quick. I use it as a hand warmer while ice fishing. I can’t imagine the heat generated @ 25000.

    I want one too! Integrated modular fan that is easily replaced allows 5 minutes @ 25000 lumen. It can also be used as a power supply! The 2017 x7 is now @ 12000 lumen, that might be enough? jester

    Anyone know the msrp?

    $200 for a flashlight, wow. Done plenty of fishing at night on the river and cant think of too many times wish I had more light with just a regular ol cheap spotlight.

    Can buy a light bar for front of boat, 4 new headlamps, year supply of batteries for em all and still come under $200.

    But maybe your afraid of the dark for than me whistling hah

    Add a few well placed mirrors a colidascope lense you just may have an illusion of a space craft in the backwaters. Cool!!
