    JETBEAM JET-PA12

    Same question. How's the UI? Is there mode memory? I prefer on at max, no mode memory. The XT1A is on my shortlist but the flickering issue seems to be quite common.

    led lantern, hot to make clear plastic, opaque/frosted

    I use a frosting sprayor matte laquer spray. Can be found in hardwares. I've frosted a lot of my lanterns and flashlights. Even branded ones like my Fenix E12. Also my Hokage Nichia. Makes the beam smoother and better for closeup work. Seems to be holding up well.

    [Review] Airpro DC7

    Salamat sa review. I like its USB-C port as most of my electronics now are USB-C. USB-C is more water resistant than micro-USB so when the flap fails (and it will), there's an added layer of protection. I'm just not sure about the space around the port though. How much is it? I might have...

    Re: Need Headlamp: AA powered, Mechanical Clicky Switch, LED hi, lo I'm not too knowledgeable when it comes to chargers and I depend greatly on HJK's reviews. I am pickin up the single bay of that Liitokala charger though. The Lii-100. My chargers currently are: Xtar VP2 (charges upto 4.3V...

    Need Headlamp: 18650 or AA powered, Mechanical Clicky Switch, LED hi, lo

    Re: Need Headlamp: AA powered, Mechanical Clicky Switch, LED hi, lo I'm on the same boat with regards to AA. I've streamlined all my emergency gear to run off 14500/AA so that I can use easily found AA in an emergency. Easily scavenged too. My current 2 headlamps run on AA - an older Fenix...

    Your Oldest LED Flashlight?

    I have some older cheapo LEDs but these are what started me into higher quality LED lights. 2004 Fenix P1D-CE in "brushed natural" finish. Fenix's 1st CREE light when others were still using Luxeon LEDs. Good tint, quality and size. Quite revolutionary for the time and one of the lights that...

    is anyone future proofing against 'too-powerful' lights?

    Yes. Which is why I still EDC a Fenix LD10 R5. 3 lumens low, 12 lumens med, 45 lumens high, 100 lumens turbo. Fully tightened, starts at turbo. Slightly loosened, starts on low. Predictable every time I turn it on. It's my favorite UI which started out with my Fenix P2D-CE and before they...

    Cars, Man

    It depends on the area. Waze learns the more people use it. It plugs in data from current users. For example, a few users took the route I'm about to take, it bases the info relayed to me on their travel. Speed, traffic, etc. Since commercial GPS has been around developed countries for several...

    DIY Omnivore Flashlights for Storm prep and Bugging Out.

    Thanks! Good to know that the Olight held up well. Planning to get a couple more. Might pick up an F1 bared on your tests. Though I'm leaning towards the Liitokala Lii 100. Hopefully I'll be able to test it when I get a USB meter.
