Durabeam Ultra 1000 Lumens Flashlight
> Is it a stupid idea?
Yes. But it'll work, if that's really what you're going for.
I've got one of these as one of my many cheap junk flashlights, which would be more or less appropriate for 50' throw, which i'm assuming is about what you have.
Don't spend $100+ on a flashlight for this. You can rent an actual spotlight for less than that.
Also I won't ever buy anything from that website because autoplay videos suck.
I just got a Duracell Durabeam and it has a 1000 lumen output. I have not used this yet as it is still on the way. It has 3 modes high/low/strobe and runs off of 4 c-cell batteries. But I have trusted Duracell for many years and they have never let me down. It does not take rechargeable batteries. But the best part is, it's only 23$ and it comes from an American Company (It is made in China) and you don't have to wade through the endless amounts of junk stuff. 35 hours on low, 2 hours on high, and throws a beam 380 meters and waterproof to 15m.
Amazon Canada...a bit more than $16

similar, but larger. My wife just bought them wherever, probably Costco. I think this is one of them: https://www.amazon.com/Duracell-Durabeam-Ultra-1000-Lumens/dp/B00O70XP24
I've actually never bought any lights other than the mini-mags and large mags, and one or two specific backpacking lights (ie a super light lantern I can hang from inside a tent).
Found'em, it was two different Duracell 3xC flashlights, one 1000 lumen & another 1300 (maybe $15 on sale or in the us?).
Maybe true about the lumen "exaggerating," haven't seen a good reference lumens light to compare, but they're both really bright though. On YT a fair bit too
