    Only 5 lights.

    1. Noctigon DM11 with XHP 50.3 hi 4000k. Because it’s the best overall light that’s made today. 2. Surefire a2 aviator. Because it’s the best light ever made and awesome. 3. Wurkkos ts10. It’s a nice dim light that’s easy to find at night. 4. Maglite 3c with 2x21700s and tads 7218 pr bulb...

    I’m a bit jealous of the 9N. I think that’s one of the best looking lights ever made.

    Ya I’ve heard of using the mn60. Using 3 lithium ions must be hard on it though. I’ve found even the mn20 too bright for my needs and wish I could find an mn15. Still fun though. If I need long run time bright incandescent, I just use my mag light with 21700 and a tad custom 350 lumen bulb

    Ya For sure. I was going to go with a Lumens factory head. I’m sure it’s very good as well, but at least this this is still a surefire one. Don’t know whether I’m going to be getting a flat or crenulated bezel though. Hopefully flat with a glass lens and barely perceptible wear😁 I mean this was...

    Ya I’m not sure. They said it has a bit of wear to the ano but a good lens. Maybe I just got the cs representative on a good day. I couldn’t believe it either. Especially for such an old light

    Are Protected Cells Potted?

    Nice light. By eye you’ll never notice the loss of 300 lumens. But if you want to go the rechargeable route, no surefire does not manufacture the cell. But I’m sure it’s a very good quality. As for an unprotected cell, when the light gets dim, charge it. I’ll admit I’m not well versed in weapon...

    Are Protected Cells Potted?

    Personally I don't think protected cells are necessary anymore. Lights have gotten a lot better since they first came out. So I would either go unprotected, or better yet use primaries.

    I’d love to try the mn21. Mine is burned out. It’s an mn20. One of the old purple base ones. But some good news. I contacted surefire. I was honest with what happened. They found a spare head and they’re shipping it out to me

    XTAR cells fit great. In the mb20, in an A2, and a 3 flats e2e. They measure 840mah as well. Not bad. That’s all good. I did not need a warning. I knew the lexan lens could melt if such a situation happened. I just did not mean for that situation to happen. I had the tail cap too close to being...

    Ya I saw that. I’ve been waiting to get an e2 lamp and a couple m6 lamps. Guess I’ll get a head too. Too bad they’re black

    I’m…..very upset. Lol. I’ve maybe gotten 20 minutes of use. And that’s a really rare head. Not that I ever intended on selling it, but it’s definitely worth a lot less now. Guess I’m buying a lumens factory head. I contacted surefire, but I bet they’ve long run out of parts to repair that

    Well I guess I don't need to worry about which cells fit my light anymore…… or worry about the purple mn20 blowing obviously I had it set too sensitively
