I Carry a flashlight most of the time for reasons mentioned above, but I also carry the same one on duty to light up a scene not to mention its waterproof the 330 ft (100m). Its a older model of the 3w LED(its about 1/2 way down the page) light i go diving with. Even though it only puts out 2/3s of the current model it still will do better then most large flashlights or HID lights out right now.

What you mean the 6 and 8 D cell ones that are available if you know where to look . Oh please not another assumption/making up the rules as we go by TSA. A large mag lite is no worse a bludgeoning tool then a laptop, but yet laptops are still allowed on-board.
