    Spark ST6-500CW headlamp as a bike light

    I picked up a Spark ST6-500CW headlamp yesterday with visions of using it as a self-contained bike light (no wires, no remote battery pack). The headlamp uses a Cree XML and is powered by a single 18650 battery. Quick specs: LED: Cree CW XM-L T6 5 modes Super: 500lm 1.4hours (Only triggered...

    Spark ST6-500CW review.

    Cool pics and summary. I just received mine today. Overall, I'm impressed with the apparent build quality of the light and strap. I'm surprised at how little difference I notice between the max mode and the super mode. I like the user interface and I like the low mode. I'd like to see if I...

    New Icon Irix Headlamp

    Re: New Icon Irix Headlamp - my mini 1 minute layman's version of review Haha. Yeah, I wasn't ignoring you, but when I turned on my headlamp last night to measure, I thought, "err....where's the edge? It fades away so slowly." baker

    What's the last thing you used your headlamp for?

    I used my Icon Irix II while installing a new car stereo in my wife's CRV. Much better than using handheld since I needed two hands for the work.

    New Icon Irix Headlamp

    Re: New Icon Irix Headlamp - my mini 1 minute layman's version of review I've been using the Irix II for quite a while now. I definitely like it. I use it around the house and for camping. To me, it feels cheap compared to my Zebralight (which I somehow lost). But, I have had zero...

    Need suggestions for a 1xCR123 weapon mounted light

    How about a Solarforce L2M host and an XPG R5 drop-in? $31 plus shipping. I have this light and really like it. It also comes with an extender so you can run 2x16340 or 1x18650 if you want. I have NOT used this as a weapon light, so I don't know about it's durability in that case. You can...
