The LED Flashlight - A Backbone of Emergency Preparedness

Article Category: Recreation

Author Name: Don Carter, Jr

Perhaps one of the most widely used devices in the world today is one that most people actually take least notice of - the flashlight. From the person sleeping soundly in his home, to the guy driving home from a hard day's work, to the trekker gazing at his map while planning the next day's route - it is guaranteed that the presence of this lighting equipment will always be there: in the bedside table, in the glove compartment, always within reach.

A good light source is always a necessity. After all, humans rely greatly on their sense of sight to assess the state of things. That's why anyone preparing for any event will always invest on a reliable flashlight for starters. In emergency situations, a simple ray of light could spell the difference between survival and doom.

The flashlight, despite the simplicity of its operating principle, is not insulated from the leaps and bound of innovation that characterize the modern times. From the incandescent bulbs that once lit up our homes, a new set of light bulbs have become almost the standard equipment for flashlights. Indeed, an LED Flashlight can nowadays be found in all shapes and sizes, from 1000+ lumen full-sized torches to keychain-sized flashlights.

An LED Flashlight offers numerous advantages above their incandescent counterparts, and these advantages make the LED Flashlight a practical and must-have component of any emergency equipment. LEDs are known primarily for their energy efficiency, producing even as much as ten times more light per watt than conventional incandescent bulbs. This drastically increases the lifespan of the power source, providing one with a brighter light source for a longer period of time.

LEDs are also very durable, less fragile than an ordinary glass bulb. It has no vulnerable part like the incandescent bulb's filaments. More often than not, the expected lifespan of the LEDs may be more than the lifespan of the usual flashlight. For this reason, most LED light bulbs are permanently fixed in their receptacles. An LED Flashlight also maintains its brightness as its battery discharges, unlike the incandescent flashlight whose beam starts to waver under the same condition.

A high power LED Flashlight also has the little-known characteristic of producing warmth when in use. This is the reason the LED Flashlight often comes in aluminum body casings or other high heat conductivity materials, as these materials do a good job of making sure the heat is properly dissipated and does not remain in the body of the flashlight. Though never as warm as a good fire, a survivalist could exploit this characteristic as a source of heat.

When it comes to versatility, an LED Flashlight also tops its incandescent competition. An LED Flashlight can be configured to provide an adjustable amount of light (i.e., low and high luminescent outputs), as well as different colors of light. The latter feature may be useful for signaling and other purposes.

Overall, the LED Flashlight provides a reliable and versatile light source that is useful in many situations, be it a simple stroll through the woods or camping in mountain ranges. One simply cannot meet the outdoors much less any emergency situation without this piece of equipment.
