    The Malkoff Front Porch

    For the most part, I feel Malkoff is less about barn burnin’ flamethrowers, and more about sustainable output with the exception of the bodyguard stuff which is designed for brief bursts of crazy high output. Look at all the dropins that say they need to be in a metal head in order to run more...

    McGizmo lights.

    Dons email is: [email protected] I advise looking in the threads at the “aqua mule/aqua ram terra mule/terra ram. You will tell him if you want a mule, or a head with a traditional parabolic reflector “mule” or “ram” head. Tell him if you want the “aqua” diving style body that turns on and...

    Modern Technology and times

    When I went to buy a new phone, the guy at the shop was like “why do you need so much memory on a phone?” I said because I have a lot of music. He also asked why not stream music. Well, because that will drain my battery much more rapidly than playing music that’s saved, and if I don’t have a...

    The Malkoff Potential Group Buy Sounding Board

    The minimum order of 20 is Malkoff requirement? I thought of another light that would be a grail light on my opinion. The old style hound dog with the reflector running the SST-20 in either 4000k or 3000k. I’m not sure what the reason was behind moving away from the reflector besides more throw...

    Got the NEW Maglite ML25IT 2C

    Woah, what? Coming off the charger at 4.3 is something I wouldn’t do if I could help it. In my experience cells do still settle because any charger running constant voltage mode will still have a minimum current. For example 0.03 amps. Once that current cuts off, the cells voltage settles. But...

    Emitter vs OTF Lumens

    I think the idea there is ultimate impact and shock resistance. Although I myself still find the idea of a “plastic” lens to be unappealing. I’ve considered a glass lens in my Malkoff head if it’s doable.

    HDS Systems #23

    Maybe the vendors caught onto the notion that you might be willing to sell yourself when you need something. They’re probably just holding out for you to get desperate enough to finally offer yourself. Mixing business with pleasure. Diabolical.

    McGizmo lights.

    The Mcgizmo lights in my view are mostly “lego” lights. Meaning there are a variety of heads which provide various beam types such as mules, small heads with smaller reflectors, larger heads with big reflectors, aspheric, and a variety of bodies that accommodate various cell sizes. In addition...

    My understanding is they charge only through the USB

    The Malkoff Front Porch

    The HDS has to go through a reset when switching from rechargeable to disposable. The HDS will interpret that 3 volts as a “disposable cell”. All of the step down features meant to extend run times on batteries that are getting low will not function, since the battery voltage should remain...

    Guys, guys, guys, I came here first before the malkoff front porch. I just finally got my hands on my (ashamed to say) first ever Malkoff light, an MD4 standard tailcap with an MDX head and an M61W inside. WOW. That is one excellent beam. In a way it doesn’t feel as warm as I expected, and I...

    LOL I’m only invisible when I put on the ring. But it’s loud and windy and everything’s black and white, so my hi CRI lights become useless. I tend not to do it often. #nerdalert
