You Can Never Have Too Many Flashlights
I like to keep flashlights everywhere, all rooms, all vehicles and with the price of the Garrity 2D Tuff Lite, you can afford to.
I love the feel of the rubber handle. The flashlight feels solid and rugged in your hand. It's shock and water resistant.
The light is strong and bright. Requires 2 "D" batteries which is less expensive than some of the other flashlights. I'm pleased with my purchase and plan to get more.
shedding some light on the situation...
Garrity makes excellent products. I should know--a friend's brother in law owns the company. Garrity has always worked hard to put the best products on the market; and this flashlight is no exception.
This Garrity flashlight is FAR better than an average flashlight in the same price range. The Krypton bulb gives off a good deal of light so you can see your way around in the dark or light up dark spaces without any hassles. The flashlight is indeed water resistant although I can't comment about shock resistant--I never tested that one out!

I didn't test to see if it would float ... Read More
Very good flashlight
A power failure hit our community a handful of days ago (October, 2007). I try to have a flashlight in every room, just for such eventualities. Of all the flashlights, of many different makes, this one was by far the best of all.
First, it had one of the more powerful beams, providing quite a bit of light.
Second, it's built in such a way that it is easy to turn it on and off in the dark and it is easy to hold (not likely to slip out of one's hand, as some other brands might).
In short, I'm a fan and am apt to buy more of these in the future.
The Garrity "Hurricane" Flashlight
Five or six years ago this flashlight was on sale in a major hardware and building materials store in Tampa as one of Florida's frequent Hurricanes approached from the South. These Flashlights flew off the shelf as many customers like me liked the completely covered light with hard rubber or rubber like material. It seemed like a flashlight that could really take wet rainy weather. Also the soft body appeared to be rugged enough to allow the flashlight to be dropped short distances without serious damage. It turns on and off from switch on the bottom so there was no switch to slide back and forth and fail to connect. Also it was entirely covered by the light's rubber or rubber like material. I still have it and recently bought another one because ... Read More
