New “MOLLE light” by PentagonLight
April 23rd, 2007
PentagonLight, maker of several high-end flashlights, has just come out with an right-angle LED flashlight powered by a single AA battery. It’s not a “tactical” flashlight, just a handy little light with several nice features.
It has a pocket clip, lanyard loop, and can fit inside MOLLE webbing. It also comes with a MOLLE-compatible pouch. Here it is, compared to the Gerber Recon LED light.
The light has a screw-in blue filter (red is also available) stored in the base cap.
As an added bonus, the first production models have a small compass in the bottom of the base cap, underneath the filter.
While a bit pricey at $32, these lights are well made, and should give long years of service, and convenience.
These are very nice, handy flashlights, and are quite bright. The Hobbit Hole has four, to be given to the first four troops that request one. All part of the Hobbit Hole’s commitment to check out what’s new and potentially valuable (or at least useful) for our troops.
