    I need a "Wall Of Light"!

    Sorry I don't really have any way to test if brightness is less with CR123 vs 18650. I have not observed any difference in brightness when using CR123 vs 18650. I believe the light is designed to run in full brightness with either primaries or 18650. I have never seen it mentioned anywhere that...

    WOOHOO!!! NEW QUARKS ARE HERE!!!

    I think I may have a way to compare OTF lumens to ANSI lumens. 4sevens says there is a 7 percent increase in lumens going from R5 to S2. The Maelstrom G5 S2 wasn't measured using ANSI method (at least it wasn't mentioned). Switching from R5 to S2 led increases the lumens from 350 OTF to 375...

    I need a "Wall Of Light"!

    How about the wolf eyes thunder, I consider it to be quite floody. -It can take primaries or 18650s. -You can purchase it with either 1 mode high only, 2 mode high and low, 4 mode high, medium, low, stobe. Low mode is advertised to run 75 hours. -855 claimed emitter lumens, using 3 R2 leds. On...

    Fenix TK45 Review and suggestions

    I'd would love it if the TK45 were able to take lithium energizers. Did you by any chance run the light on energizer lithiums?

    New Dereelight DBS V3 - Cloudy Lense

    Looks like the cloudy lens is more common then I thought. I just got a DBS V3 MC-E warm today and the lens is ugly :sick2:. It actually has brown spots! The output is already good. I hope the output will be great when I get a new lens.

    Flashlights you have bought this month? 3/2010

    Purchased a Wolf-Eyes M90 Rattlesnake in February, they were out of stock, but finally got it today. Already ordered a fivemega 2X18650 body to use with a surefire turbo head.

    2/3A ni-MH 900mah 4.8v. battery.

    There isn't a combination of 18650s, or 123s rechargeables that will allow you to run the bulb without blowing it. But you can get a custom 4.8V nimh pack built. Go here: http://www.cheapbatterypacks.com/?menu=660F3530DE&sid=163297 and you can get some custom packs built. I've had some custom...

    the Mega 100 Led flashlight - get ready...

    I think here is the same model being reviewed: http://www.flashlightreviews.com/reviews/shi-tiao_100led.htm Wouldn't it be cheaper to use just a single older bin led, like a Cree P4. By using a single led you would save on material costs. No need for such a large head. Plus less labor to wire 1...

    Why is it called a flashlight?

    Do any other Americans on this board think the term "torch" seem to make more sense than "flashlight". I sure think the term torch makes more sense than flashlight.
