    Show your Rare/Unusual SureFires - Part 3

    I have since found (and bought) a 6P-GM with press fit lens. About $300 for it. Obviously I stopped looking after that. I would still say it’s uncommon but not as rare as a lot of the stuff here.

    Just a mild rant... moving and replacing all lights

    I can sort of understand not caring about color temperature. Sort of. I will never understand being ok with wildly unmatched bulb colors in the same fixture.

    Surefire Fury DF - FIXED unit ramps 'way down' then back up (to avoid LED burn up?)

    I may never understand why surefire chose to cave and compete in the lumen wars yet do so with a decade+ old emitter

    Tritium spheres

    Its one unit of tritium. You use it for tritaneous purposes. The plural is tritiii. Kidding… they are little glass glowing vials. You glue them to things you want to glow for several years straight. Uses include firearm night sights and watch faces, but they're more commonly using rod/pill...

    Help me decide between green light and High CRI

    Heck yeah, more thread drift, let's go. Strangely, nobody who has a full head of hair wants to be bald.

    Help me decide between green light and High CRI

    All this talk about damaging colors, but nary a mention of the sun including the very same colors at higher levels of light. Walking around outside in full sun is exposing you to far more blue light than your phone.

    Looking for good source of 21700 LiFePO4 batteries

    Wait, there’s a wire up the side? They’re protected? I wonder why.

    Good 8+ bay charger for AA/AAA also simple for family

    I’m not picky with NiMH chargers so I use the $14 powerowl 8 bay charger. Still working so far, had it 2 years, also plugged in all the time.

    What is the purpose of UV flashlights?

    There’s a hidden strip in $100 bills that will fluoresce red orange under 365nm but not 395nm.

    Looking for good source of 21700 LiFePO4 batteries

    I’ve been looking too. I haven’t even stumbled upon those. Where did you buy them?

    Theory - Why not doubled body for dual switch?

    Noctigons have this already, with signal and power taking two paths through the same body.

    Waiting for two old Surefire

    Dimly and for a very (very) short while. So effectively, no.
