    Good flashlight for camping / general use

    Have you given some thought to a headlamp? I enjoy camping and hiking too and I rarely ever take more than one flashlight camping with me - it's always two headlamps and a small LED lantern. Hands free lighting is a must for me when camping. As for your question about the S12, SST20 and 219C is...

    Replacement for Fenix E21

    Hey, thanks for the reply. Yeah, I saw that one already. I guess there isn't a light like the E21 anymore. I suspect the market isn't there for a long-lasting, general-use light anymore. Everything has to be so "tactical" now. I'd prefer a light without a turbo mode since those burn out the...

    Replacement for Fenix E21

    Hey guys, I've been out of the loop for awhile so I don't know what's new but my E21 has finally given up on life. It was my beater/loaner light that I'd give to my friends and family who know nothing about flashlights. I liked it because it had a nice form factor with the 2xAA configuration...

    Power Outage, How many Lumens, How many batteries? (for lights and more)

    Re: Just survived a three day power outage and the light I used the most... Sounds rough - hope conditions weren't too bad. Yeah, I've come to the realization after years and years of flashlight use that headlamps have become my go-to lights. I find myself using my Zebralight headlamps for...

    MY POWER WENT OUT!! WoohOOOOOO!!

    Except when your milk goes bad. If you have to face a extended blackout I hope you have a generator and some fuel on standby.

    LED landing gear light on the 1977 A10 Warthog

    Wow, very cool. According to the product page it is dual mode to be used as a normal light and in a "covert" mode with NVGs. I assume the smaller LEDs are IR. Says the color temp is 6000K BTW. :D

    Sold/Expired SF E2L

    Re: 18650 HDS body & SF E2L Thanks Greenbean :) Back when CPFMP was around whether I was buying or selling I never had a transaction go awry. I know there have been some bad eggs on CPF but I love how it's mostly just people how love lights.

    Sold/Expired 4Sevens Quark 123²

    Hey CPFers, I'm putting up some of my old 4Sevens up for sale. 4Sevens Quark 123² R5 Edition 2xCR123A (I would often use this light with 1x17670. 18650s don't fit) I ordered this back in 2010. IIRC the emitter is a CREE XP-G. Color temp is cool white. Operation is full twist of the head for...

    What to do with old unusable flashlights you are still emtionally attached to?

    Of all my lights there are only three I use on a regular basis. I think when it comes to old or discontinued lights it might not exactly be emotional attachment but maybe fear of not being able to get that same model of light back. I have a 4Sevens Quark RGB that I almost never use but I can't...

    HDS Systems EDC # 19

    Cool to know Henry was a caver. :) I was briefly in a speleological society when I was in college. I carried three lights on me - a incandescent headlamp on my hardhat, a regular LED flashlight, and a small pocket LED flashlight as a emergency light. This was back around 2006 in the early days...

    Can anyone repair or mod a novatac120P ?

    IIRC Henry is the one who designed the Novatac lights. I used to have a Novatac Storm - it was kind of like a (very) economy HDS. There was a thread awhile back about "unlocking" your Novatac light so that you can program the individual modes like a HDS light. Pretty cool stuff but not...

    Sold/Expired WTB: Old Zebralight's

    I have a old H31w that I don't use anymore - I think I got it in 2010. Headband isn't in good shape though plus I don't have the box or accessories anymore.

    Sold/Expired SF E2L

    Re: Random Assortment & Old Surefires & Flashlight Parts Bummer. I'm not sure why it's not showing ... it works for me but that might seem obvious. I'll try to fix this guys. I stopped using my old picture hosting website so I've had to try to find new ways to display images.

    Sold/Expired SF E2L

    Re: Random Assortment & Old Surefires Don't feel like starting another thread so I'll add some flashlight parts to this new post. Assortment of Solarforce parts: I'm selling these as a set since selling them individually wouldn't cover the cost of shipping. -Head with radial fins. I'm pretty...

    Saving on house lights electricity by using an LED flashlight

    True, especially if you live in a place like Texas. I have some family in Vancouver and some buildings, mostly older, don't have AC duct work - maybe in circumstances like this it would be more relevant. I still think appliances like a refrigerator would use a lot more electricity than your...
