I’ve seen several good recommendations for what equipment I need, but I don’t know who to trust for reliable products. For example, flashlights and multi-tools. I see a lot of flashlights on Amazon, but I don’t know if one is “better” than another.

I’m wondering if there’s a “you can’t go wrong with these brands/models” that’s available.

    I actually enjoy the Anker bolder LC90 torch and for general purpose a set of two LC40 as well as a no name mini torch as EDC.

    With everyone running LEDs it is only the case and the features and use case that sets them all apart.

    For headlights I went with three different Petzl torches (ACTIK, TIKKA) and am totally satisfied with the quality and feature set (one in the BOB, one as daily driver, one for my partner). Others like to go with ledlenser. In regard to regular torches olight is celebrated by the tactical community.

    It comes down to this: how much are you willing to spend on this subject. I would go with products that are ranged in the realm of reasonable pricing.
