Reddit mentions of NiteCore NiteCore-i2-V2014-A 2014 New Version Universal Intelligent Charger for Two Batteries Compatible with IMR/Li-Ion, Black

The BLF A6 is still a good flashlight, especially for the price. IMO it's still hard to beat that bang for your buck. The next step up in bang for your buck is the Emisar D4. IMO, those two are pretty solid depending on your price point. You can pay hundreds of dollars for a single flashlight, but either of those are going to be an EXTREME upgrade if you are used to AA and AAA battery flashlights, and are very, very hard to beat in their price ranges. Those two can match a lot of lights that cost hundreds of dollars honestly

There are several styles. The main ones are

Headlamp - You wear them with a head band. Quite useful for camping, speulunking etc

Thrower - Throw light long distance, for when you want to light up a hillside a few hundred yards away

Flood - Spread light in a wide area at close range, for when you want to light up an entire room.

IMO, Flood are the more useful, but throw lights have their uses

A few things to note,

• Decent flashlights get hot. Like, REALLY hot. The BLF A6 doesn't get that hot, but if you use it for a while the tip will get hot enough to be uncomfortable to touch. I've about set my pants on fire with it before when it got turned on by accident in my pocket. The D4 actually WOULD set your pants on fire, or burn you, so be careful
  
• "Real" Flashlights take larger batteries. Most use 18650, the same as Vapes use. They are about 5-15 dollars a piece depending on nice of one you get. They are rechargable and last years though, so you really just need 1-3 per flashlight. Most flash lights will last several hours on one battery, which translates to . . .quite a lot of actual time since you don't typically use a flashlight for hours at a time
  
• You'll need a charger. They can charge AA and AAA too, so it's wise to buy some good old fashioned Eneloops just for quality of life, to use around the house since you already have a charger. Those aren't related to the flashlight or anything, they are just a very nice QoL upgrade you can make to your house in general, since they last 5-10 years and are essentially as good as disposable batteries, and you can just use them over and over. Nice for all the remotes and controllers!

I bought these they work fine & [this charger] ( http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KAX6FI8/ref=pe_385040_128020140_TE_3p_dp_1)

Im not sure if they give me longer sessions but if I'm out all day and one runs out I can just swap them easily

My Pick

• 875 lumens (ANSI rated)
  
• Plenty of throw with a buttery, bright spill beam
  
• Pocketable
  
• Waterproof
  
• Runs on 1x 18650
  
• Legendary on BLF forums
  
  Your Charger and Your Battery
  

I have done the VV/VW mods and now just got a mech mod. I am loving the mech mod and wish that I did not waste so much money with all the other stuff.

With the mech mod, if you need control of your wattage you can always add a kick for super cheap. But honestly, I am enjoying controlling my "heat" (wattage) with the coils I build. You can use the following calculator to easily find this out: http://www.steam-engine.org/ohm.asp

For $80 I got a mod, RDA, RBA, 2x batteries, charger, and accessories all from FastTech & Amazon. If you willing to wait the shipping (2 - 3 weeks for me) it is well worth it.

  Hope this helps give you an idea. Let me know if you have any questions.

They are about the same price but with the vamo you need to get batteries and a charger, the plus being you have replaceable batteries. The MVP has a built in/non replaceable battery.

With that said, I would recommend a different mod. The Hammer has really, REALLY bad voltage drop, which means you won't get very good performance out of it. In addition to that, the battery is an 18350. AW makes the best 18650 on the market (the one I linked), but it's only 6.8 amps IIRC. With all of that said, you won't be able to wrap your coils very low, and you will have to deal with very bad voltage drop. All in all, I don't think you would enjoy your purchase, but to each his own.

Happy vaping!
