A reader sent me the following message: "I think the new Leatherman
product is flashlights - I saw them today in their image library -
latest uploads". Thank you, Larry!
Last year, Leatherman offered a Monarch LED flashlight exclusively at Costco stores (photo),
suggesting that a full range of flashlights might be available from
Leatherman in the future.
According to Leatherman: "The
Leatherman Lighting Difference is Our Light Density Value. Leatherman
flashlights provide the highest, most consistent output of light for
battery/product size of any flashlight on the market in the price
range. Simply put, the size to performance ratio is unmatched for the
price."
Here's a table comparing a few of the features of the new Leatherman Serac flashlights:
