    Quote from the Police Heli Pilot last night

    I'm not certain on the legality of shining a flashlight at a pilot, but pointing ANY laser at a moving vehicle, police officer, or any aircraft is most certainly illegal. I believe they are all felonies. I guess with a sufficiently powerful flashlight, they could try arguing that it is just as...

    Help! I cannot find a replacement switch.

    well crap! Thank you kind sirs for responding though! I Guess i'll try modding it to a twisty by jumping the spot where the switch sits and trimming down the spring. Any reason why that would be a bad idea? Or perhaps you guys have a better way of doing it?

    Help! I cannot find a replacement switch.

    After maybe 3 weeks of ownership, the switch on my Uniquefire s10 has failed.:mad: After extensive searching, i haven't found a replacement for it. I tried posting in the DX forums and haven't gotten a response. I pulled the switch apart to try and fix it, the clicky didn't work one way i put...

    Ever give anyone really bad advice?

    Rest assuredly they got home safely, ever read about the "lost german couple" in the local papers? ;) Worst case scenario, they have cursed your name over a beer in their hometown. Best case scenario, they are greatly appreciative of your advice to continue so as to complete that which they...

    Got a new flashlight, batteries aren't here yet.

    So i ordered a new flashlight, it's powered by 1 18650. I ordered the batteries from DX at the same time and they haven't arrived yet, but the light has. I also purchased a PILA charger and 1 AW18650 about a week ago(obviously a different site), they haven't even shipped yet. My question here...

    Need help with charger and batteries.

    ok, more searching done, now it would appear that the PILA DOES do 14500s. http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=188653 Is this correct? I would hate to purchase one and find out i am wrong. Also, since i have you here, anyone know where i could get a PILA, 14500 AW and 18650...

    Need help with charger and batteries.

    Do LED Flashlights make you happy?

    The main reason I started collecting flashlights was just to be prepared under whatever circumstances. After i found the DX website, i ordered my first LED Cree flashlight and it made me grin ear to ear. I've since ordered a few more, and each time i get one in the mail, it feels like christmas...

    They laughed, until.......

    Because they think it's magic. They want to see "where the light comes from":stupid:

    Computer help [viral issue]

    Yes take the harddrive out and scan it on another CLEAN pc. Run anti-virus if they have it. Malware bytes, and hijack this(if you understand how to). If you don't have anti-virus, Microsoft security essentials is the way to go, if you don't have legit windows, use Avira-Antivirus, it's free and...

    New here, looking for Opinions..

    I currently have 14500 rechargeable. Then of course any alkaline. From what i've been noticing, it appears that the 18650 seems to be a well used battery. I am good for using any battery that comes in a rechargeable version. I just can't see purchasing a $100 light and then forking out $100 a...
