    V10r DIY repair, is it dead?

    Yeah it's not the tail switch, I tried it on a V11r body and it doesn't turn on anymore (it used to work).

    V10r DIY repair, is it dead?

    I have a Sunwayman V10r (and V11r), both have served me well for many years. The V10r would intermittently work. Meaning, click the tail switch and the light comes on, next time click the tail switch and nothing happens. Sometimes I would "tap" it against my hand and it would come on and stay...

    So hard to find a good high cri light nowadays

    Is it as simple as desoldering the LED/board from the two wires and resoldering to new emitter board?

    So hard to find a good high cri light nowadays

    There seems to be a lot of conflicting information on this, including several posts on this forum. One post says it's high CRI followed by another that says no, it's not. Is there any real data on this? Is the 2020 RRT01 Nichia 219c high CRI or not?

    Fraz Labs Mechanical Flashlights (formerly QTC Non-Battery Crush)

    So, how in the world do I get my hands on one of these? Just found out about them and all stock on the website is gone... Also is there a convenient size comparison anywhere? Which one would be the closest to a Sunwayman V11r / JetBeam RRT01 size range? Finally, I searched the whole thread and...

    1xAA for 7 year old kid

    That actually looks like a pretty nice light. I saw it on a few other sites as a set bundled with something else and it was pretty expensive. Shiningbeam's price is pretty good.

    1xAA for 7 year old kid

    Yeah, strobe (AKA 'dance party' mode) is his favorite feature of my Thrunite 2A :shrug: Yeah...maybe if he "loses" it I'll get to use it The TerraLux looks promising.

    1xAA for 7 year old kid

    I'm looking for a 1xAA light for a 7 year old kid as a birthday gift. The 3 requirements are: 1: 1xAA 2: Must have strobe mode 3: Lanyard attachment so it doesn't get lost Obviously since it's for a kid, the cheaper the better. I was looking at the Klarus ST10 but apparently it's discontinued...

    Lithium IMR vs ICR vs IFR

    Thanks for the literature, but I'm still confused....do I want a higher current with less capacity? Do I want the "usual" type (ICR)? Which one should I use for my 4.2v 1x14500 flashlight? I should get a protected one, right?

    Lithium IMR vs ICR vs IFR

    Can someone please explain the difference between 14500 IMR, ICR and IFR battery types? Which would be best for a flashlight rated for 4.2v max? I have checked out the huge battery sticky and couldn't find any of that information.

    Quark 123 head on Thrunite Neutron 2A body?

    As the title says, I am wondering if a Quark head (123^2) will fit on a Thrunite Neutron 2A body. The purpose would be to run 2x14500.

    Upcoming 2AA XM-L?

    I remember seeing that too, but this review has pictures which counter that argument...I'm not sure who is right, maybe they have different versions?

    Upcoming 2AA XM-L?

    Thanks for clarifying. I really liked the beam profile of the Quark AA2, just not the horrible green tint I got. It was so bad on mine even a non-flashaholic commented on it so I had to return it. I also wanted something brighter than the R5 so the Neutron 2A really seemed like the way to go...

    Upcoming 2AA XM-L?

    It's just that I read this post where he says his Quark AA2 S2 (which I had and didn't like) out-throws the Neutron which is too floody, and he is overall disappointed with the Neutron.
