While lights may be an important cornerstone to everyday preparations or emergency situations, maintaining a proper battery source is very important as well. For those that like to have a rechargeable battery source for their lights, Nitecore has introduced a four bay charger that can charge three different types of batteries: the Nitecore i4 Intellicharger. This impressive charger uses a “smart interface” that can identify the battery type (Lithium-ion, NiMH, NiCd) that will choose the appropriate charging method for the battery. Once the batteries are fully charged, the charger will stop charging the battery and can be safely left in its slot until it needs to be used. The charger can be used via a traditional wall plug, or can be charged with an optional car adapter.

When it comes to flashlights with a great quality build and a fantastic user interface, Sunwayman flashlights are a great choice for those looking for a solid light. In this case, the Sunwayman V60C fits the criteria for the flashlight enthusiast that’s looking for a rechargeable light with a ramping ring that produces a great amount of light. The ramping ring on the V60C allows the user to customize the lumen output of the light between 5 and 728 lumens using a CREE XM-L T6 LED that also includes a strobe and SOS function. This light can use either three 18650 batteries or six CR123/six 16340 batteries, and there is an option to purchase a base charger for the light so the batteries will not have to be taken out of the light to be charged (Warning: The light CANNOT charge with the CR123′s or 16340′s in the light).
