    Acebeam K65: XHP70.2 dedomed, 6200 lumens, 4xIMR18650, beamshots, compare

    Can I charge my 18650 batteries with solar (off-grid in Africa from Jan to May)?

    It would be best to find a powerbank that allows you to charge even if it is cloudy. iphone and ipad are very particular about the supply of power and can only be charged during very sunny period like noon. A powerbank would solve this issue.

    Can I charge my 18650 batteries with solar (off-grid in Africa from Jan to May)?

    I have tested with Nitecore F1 and it is possible to charge 18650 directly with a solar panel.

    Selling & shipping, International vs. CONUS

    Re: CPF Marketplace and now Panjo Problem I always use a forwarding agent to ship the goods over to my country. That's the only way. It's slightly more expensive but beats not being able to buy at all.

    How to tell if it's a genuine Olight.

    There is very low risk of a "fake" olight. I have bought 4 olights straight from China. In total, I have bought about 40 flashlights from taobao. This includes olight, nitecore, jetbeam, klarus, sunwayman, convoy or even zebralight. You should save 20-40%, depending on promotions. Like ven...

    What's next after all the 1,000 lumen lights?

    I think 1K lumens will be the limit for some time till they figured out how to dissipate the heat more efficiently unless they want to launch 1 min of 2k lumens.

    Fenix CL25R Camping Lantern – What battery should be included?

    i choose no battery as their batteries are always overpriced. I can probably buy many more 2600mah sanyo for a price of 1 2300mah fenix batteries.

    Strobe as bicycle light

    It's just a quick strobe at them to warn about it. It only applies to those cyclists, using strobe at front light.

    Strobe as bicycle light

    Something's bothering me. I wonder if this happens in other places. I live in the city area. It is well lit at night so it is kinda rare to see people using any form of light on their bicycle. Recently, I noted that people are using strobe as their bicycle light. :eek: At a closer look, it is...
