    As of 2016, what brands are known for their reliability?

    I have had bad experiences with Klarus lights and have never bought them for years now. Their reliability leaves much to be desired. They looked and felt good but only lasted weeks before giving up. I have had some problems with others such as Fenix, Zebralight and Nitecore. It really depends on...

    World's Smallest Flashlight

    Nice looking and I would probably buy one. However, in my experience (I have a few such flashlights including Quantum D2 and DGQs) they really need to have a switch and not twist action to turn on and off. After a period of carrying on keyring and using they become really stiff and due to the...

    Streamlight HL3 1100 lumens

I have most Nitecore, Zebralight and Thrunite models and many from Olight and Fenix and others too. From the tiniest usb charging Quantum D2 to the largest Nitecore TM 36. I recently purchased...

    What was the last LED light you purchased and why?

    Nitecore TM26. I have many other lights including TM15 and TM11, Thrunite TN 30, Jetbeam DDR30 and many other, smaller, lights. The TM26 is now my favourite and the one I use the most. It is awesome. Useful LED display and tiny for its power.

    Review of / Measurement on SysMax i4 charger

    I have a Pila charger and many different types of 18650 batteries, including AW, Ultrafire and EagleTac and I'm still waiting for others to arrive, that I have yet to try. I have decided to get the Xtar S2 charger to complement my Pila charger and this will allow me to charge 4 X 18650s at once.

    best 18650 battery and charger

    I have just charged 3 brand new AW 18650 3100 mah batteries with a Pila IBC charger and cmeasured their voltage to each be 4.1V. When inserted into Jetbeam DDR30 the flashlight shows that the battery power level is 6, out of 9. When I do the same with EagleTac 3400 mah batteries the DDR30 shows...

    best 18650 battery and charger

    I have lost faith in AW after getting Jetbeam DDR30 Flashlight. I found it impossible to get the DDR30 to show full charge with the AW batteries and I tries 3 new sets (9 batteries in total). I also use Pila IBC charger and I have found EagleTac 3400Mah 18650 batteries are much better than the...

    best 18650 battery and charger

    I have spent thousands of UK pounds on 18650 and RCR 123 batteries. I always thought AW 18650 proteced 3100 mah were the best until I got the Jetbeam DDR30. These batteries (brand new) died extremely quickly. I purchased 6 EagleTac 18650 3400 mah batteries from a certain supplier and these last...
