    AA flashlight - Your thoughts

    Unfortunately, not necessarily. Some may get issued old, outdated equipment that meets the technical requirement but in real life doesn't actually get the job done. Some may get issued decent equipment but when your safety is at stake I'd want more than "decent." Regardless of what...

    Fenix TK40 Dead...need help.

    My dad purchased a Fenix TK40 almost one year ago and now it has suddenly quit working. I cleaned the contact points, made sure all the tabs and springs were making contact, tested the battery carrier (getting about 6.5 volts), and have removed the tailcap and jumped the switch. Nothing has...

    Maratac AAA on BOOST ! [ 10440 ]

    That is what I was thinking....I really like the single mode ITP AAA because it was so bright with one twist...but I do miss the low at times. If running the 10440 so it pushes the light no harder than a conventional battery (i.e., if medium does no harm) then this would be like having the...

    If you could have every penny back you ever spent on flashlights

    Maratac AAA Surefire E1B Surefire M6 + a case of batteries. It would be hard to part with my E2DL, though.

    Maratac AAA on BOOST ! [ 10440 ]

    I just tried the same thing last night in one of my Maratac AAA's with some new protected Trustfires I bought. It worked, but I had to tighten the head down a lot more than with conventional batteries. The output was simply amazing. I have a question: I know that running these batteries is...

    Its official. I'm a C2-HA addict..... *part 2*

    Can you point me in the direction of some stainless steel bezels, preferably with no (or minimal) teeth? I looked around but didn't have much luck. Thanks!

    Nitecore EX10 Q5 vs EX10 R2?

    I was wondering...what are the differences between the Q5 version versus the R2 version of the EX10? I see that there is a 15 lumen difference, which is negligible, but what about tint, beam characteristics, etc? I already have a Q5 version, and am considering picking up an R2 version, but I...

    e2l, e1l, e2dl,-delay between modes???

    I know exactly what you are talking about. I have an E2DL and two E1B's and they can switch back and forth between the modes as fast as I can push the switch. However I just bought a E2L dual mode and you have to wait quite a long time (at least 1 second) between presses, otherwise you get the...

    NEW Proton PRO, 20% brighter than Previous Proton PRO

    Exactly. I think the light is just about perfect (for its niche) as is.

    Cool new 2009 Energizer 1AA Trailfinder Micro

    I cannot get any alkalines or eneloops to work in this headlamp. It appears that the tip of the positive end of the battery on the alkalines and eneloops is too fat and cannot fit to make contact. Has anyone else noticed this? The energizer lithiums have a smaller tip and will fit. It almost...

    The SureFire A2L thread

    Thanks for the info. I was wondering how the white A2L was going to perform. I really expected it to have a better/brighter flood than an old white A2...
