    Linkbait, stolen images, false claims

    Yeah, common marketing strategy that makes me immediately disregard the product. It's like Win10, "millions switched, so you should to!" Really? How many switched back right away and how many still want to go back to Win7 but can't figure out how? And Win10 is just like those sites... just...

    Which of your lights don't get used?

    Eventually even the pricey ones need to be used, else what is the point in having them? * laughs then looks awkward because he has to keep telling himself this or he also doesn't use his nice things * Okay, funny green tinting is a good reason. I don't know the particular model you have... does...

    Which of your lights don't get used?

    Here are the flashlights I use less or not at all and why: Not-Emitter LED Flashlight - I don't use (3 years) - for D (not bright enough - like a glow stick comparatively) and M (Alkalines ate the battery cradle - while I wasn't using it). Solar or Wind-Up Not-Emitter LED Flashlight - I don't...

    Inquiry : ANSI NEMA PLATO FL1

    So, at this point, any and all of the above are valid? ANSI approved, NEMA published and PLATO verifies. Oh... oh... I wonder if the transition to ANSI/PLATO instead of ANSI/NEMA is because the manufacturer doesn't really understand and was recently informed by PLATO that they were fudging the...

    Inquiry : ANSI NEMA PLATO FL1

    So, I'm decently familiar with the ANSI/NEMA FL-1 Standards. However, recently I've noticed that it is now being labeled the ANSI/PLATO FL-1 Standards or just PLATO FL-1 Standards. Even Fenix has switched to calling ANSI/PLATO where they used to call it ANSI/NEMA. Has anything in the standards...

    Why a flashlight need SOS mode?

    Personally, I like the idea of having an SOS mode available... but I want it out of the main line yet still easy to access. If I hit it when I accidentally over-shoot the regular mode I want then it is in a bad spot. If it is at the end of the auxiliary mode line so it takes me a while to get it...

    Flashlights in TV shows and movies (Part 4)

    @Poppy (Pg 38, Post #1121) Yeah, it is a TK45... I should know, my workplace sold it to them... actually, we sold them a few. I actually checked to see if this was mentioned when I saw this thread... if it wasn't, I was going to comment about it.

    Armytek Dobermann (XP-L HI) review, anyone? Where are reviews on Armytek lights?

    Yeah, our most recent Armytek lights have stamps from 3 (sometimes 4) of their quality control people. I checked some of our older stock (V2.5 and such) and one or two have a stamp on them. Looks like they might be testing every light produced right now to ensure it works. We still have a few...

    Capacity Loss 18650

    I hope everyone saying 'toss it out' actually means 'recycle it'. Okay, I realize that not everywhere has a place that will recycle batteries and I'm probably lucky being able to take all (including alkaline) in to a few local shops for recycling. One of them even gives a bit of money for...

    Inquiry - move or delete as needed

    Okay, so I just want some clarification, probably from a moderator - feel free to PM me the answer and then delete this thread - or keep it for others to reference, if useful. So, I understand that to have a sales thread I would need to buy permission. Does this include just posting a thread to...

    Any reviews/opinions on Eagletac 3500 mAh 18650?

    Any news on if/when HJK is going to go at the Eagletac 3500mAh 18650? I'm trying to list them for the retailer I work for and can't find any solid information about them. Perhaps I'm just failing to find the information on Eagletac's sight? * Hinting that any information would be appreciated. *...

    Peak LED Solutions Communication Skills?

    Warning : I think I sound rude in this, but I can't think of a nicer way to word it right now. Working at a reseller, we got in an order of Peak flashlights and have sold several of them now. I was a little suspicious when we first received our order and about half of it was wrong. Now, we...

    Rayus - should I get them?

    That can either be taken as there is something wrong with asking (was the intention) or this is not the best place to ask... To some, if you have to ask you should bother. To others, if you have to ask then you should or you'll never learn. Personally, I think the only stupid question is the...

    Logan 17500 - would like help with an issue

    So, the QTC could be upside down. Thank you, I'll recommend to our customer to try flipping it. I'll ask him if he is using a clip, but I don't think he is since it also fails with the keychain installed. (We sell momentary switches as separate pieces, so the customer ends up with both the...

    Rayus - should I get them?

    Yes, I tried to avoid advertising by leaving out the name of where I work and all. Is there an advertising board? * laughs * I think most of the people here already have their sources... though I did find a link to where I work in a thread on here somewhere. I mentioned that it is for my work...
