Flashlight Reviews: Gerber LX 1.0 Led Flashlight

Gerber LX 1.0.jpg

While a flashlight with two AA batteries may provide adequate lighting, there can be no substitute for the output generated from three similar batteries. Thus, while the Gerber LX may stretch the length of six full inches, the light output combined with its 'tough' design are well worth the $40 you pay for this flashlight. 'The Gerber LX 1.0 is a very tough general purpose light. It is made from Type II anodized aluminum with either a black or gray matte finish. 3 AA alkaline batteries power the light for many hours. Inside the bezel is a direct driven Luxeon I LED which is shockproof and provides a bright spot of light. The tailcap is the switch; twist for on and off. 3 AA batteries are included and are replaced by removing the tailcap.'

I am not aware of the desire on the part of consumers [especially flashlight connoisseurs] for the multi-color, multi-led flashlight. There is however a certain sense of joy whenever you are the first to spring a new gadget on your friends. [Of course I stand to be corrected and would readily concede there are very credible uses for colors other than the more common yellow incandescents and white leds.] 'The body of the Gerber Recon is anodized aluminum in a flat black finish. It is designed to be purposely non-reflective. The head is larger than the body tube and attached to the face of the light is a polymer dial with the colored lenses. The tailcap is drilled for attachment of a lanyard and has ridges to assist grip when turning the light on and off.'
