    Manker E11 (Simple T01) EDC Flashlight Is Releasing

    I have both now. I use Eneloop in both. - Straight from box both look like they have good build quality. The Klarus has more plastic retail type packaging. I prefer the Manker because it is a paper box. - From the box, the threads with lube are smooth on Manker. The Klarus is gritty. - The...

    EDC Pen?

    I have a Fisher Bullet with Uniball Jetstream refill modded to fit in it. I gave up on the Fisher refills which kept slowly leaking at the tip.

    Review of the new Sunwayman T16R.

    Thanks for the amusing and detailed review. Like you, I was attracted by its looks. I was about to buy one. Good thing I didn't.

    Front White Blinking Light

    In addition to my helmet mounted Planet Bike white blinky, I also use these USB rechargeables: This one is brightest and can be bought on eBay. http://m.gearbest.com/headlights/pp_228477.html This one is similar to the above has more of a diffuser cover and a press button switch that is easier...

    Front White Blinking Light

    +1 for blinking lights messing with the receiving sides perception of movement. There's a write up on this forum by a guy who is in law enforcement/police and they studied the effects of strobe on someone. If I remember correctly, they found that they would be disoriented about where and how far...

    Jetbeam's IIm tailswitch physical lock

    I like the idea. It makes it more obvious when it is locked out or not. Depends what it actually feels like.

    For charging difference batteries? A K1 can help!

    I just received on of these. It charged my 16340 and an old Energizer NiMH fine. The NiMH had been not charging properly in my La Crosse BC-500 due to it being detected as defective. The only thing I would have wanted is powerbank function.

    How did you come up with your CPF name?

    Mine is from the model number of some audiovisual rack mounted component from the early 1980's. Some converter thing. I didn't know what to use and turned around and saw the model number.
