| Leatherman Monarch 500 LED Flashlight |
 |
When you're on the job you need a torch that's tough and bright, but doesn't get in the way. The Leatherman Monarch 500 LED light is constructed of hard-anodized aluminum so it's as durable as stainless steel but only weights 3.5 ounces - fitting easily in a pocket or belt system.
The 500 provides a powerful 100 lumens that run on two common-size batteries (AA) and the machined reflector produces a clean light pattern for reading detail without causing eye-fatigue. Hey work is hard enough as it is; your equipment shouldn't make it harder. The Monarch 500 keeps it simple, strong and easy to store. Nuff said.
Our Verdict
We like the Monarch series because they have a high output for their diminuitive size - the 500 is the most powerful in the range - 100 lumens from a torch weighing just 100g is pretty impressive.
There is a penalty for this performance and thats battery life - only an hour - which makes these torches great for short time usage where a lot of light is required and not so good as your reading light on a week long trek in winter!
