    Small hiking, waterproof, uber reliable headlamp recommendations

    maybe i am biased , but i have never had a single fenix failure, EVER. with any part of the light, and they see mud and water regularly, i have 0 hesitation of going underwater with them, and do so when the need arises. that said i would never carry only 1 light nor would i only carry 1...

    Acebeam h50 VS Nitecore HC65??

    i think your going to be surprised by my picture..... https://i.imgur.com/LHh9z5B.jpg take a guess, but the fenix is on the left, nitecore on the right, both on LOW 3 feet from a BLUE wall, so ignore the color unfortunately its the only wall i could do it on, and its off a camera phone. based...

    Acebeam h50 VS Nitecore HC65??

    interesting, i agree with the headband, although i find the fenix more secure with the larger back piece, i have worn out fenix headbands before. curious to see how the nitecore holds up, but i do think the light level jump from eco to low is too large, and i think the jump from high to turbo...

    Acebeam h50 VS Nitecore HC65??

    this is not happening to me, i can still get to turbo although the shift is suttle, im definitely not loosing high at 3.8 i will do some tests and see how long before it drops out. when you say loose you mean you can't even switch to it correct? my spill is perfectly circular, sounds like your...

    Acebeam h50 VS Nitecore HC65??

    yes you loose turbo offly quick, need to be close to 4v, the fenix does not have this issue, even when using the nitecore battery, so its not a battery issue. but yes even with it being 1k compared to the fenix it does seem dimmer. im not a big wall hunter, but even with an offset emitter as...

    Acebeam h50 VS Nitecore HC65??

    doesn't come with a battery and the runtime chart is based on the 3400 cell which is almost 20 dollars, which puts you right back into the same price point. for a guy who has a mc3000 charger, i still now only buy usb rechargable, i guess its personal decision, but i have usb cords everywhere...

    Is there a keychain light everyone loves?

    wow no love for the Fenix UC02? man this light is a killer, blows my E01 out of the water and nice twist action 2 mode... and its tiny... this is the ss model, but there is cheaper aluminum ones https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N9EBPN3/?tag=cpf0b6-20

    Acebeam h50 VS Nitecore HC65??

    the skill looks like the same led with a diffuser on it? i would try the other headlamp first, see if you REALLY need it, i have to be honest i don't think it needs to be more diffused, maybe try a piece of scotch tape and see if that will work too...

    Acebeam h50 VS Nitecore HC65??

    maybe you haven't picked up on this, but the nitecore comes with a 3400ma, the fenix comes with a 2600ma battery, you can buy a 3600ma battery and get 1/3 more runtime. this is also why the runtime on the nitecore is better.

    Acebeam h50 VS Nitecore HC65??

    that ace beam is interesting for sure, not sure i would need 3 stages of light levels on top of light power levels. my thought process is generally, is it bright enough, yes or no. thats about the extent, unless im trying to go for spot, which is less then 10% of my usage i bought the nitecore...

    Acebeam h50 VS Nitecore HC65??

    have you used it? getting into strobe is pretty easy. maybe im too use to my fenix lights. below is the review, lmk if you have other questions, this was for a fenix website, so i can't make the nitecore look better, but i honestly don't think it is better. _________________________ I bought...

    Acebeam h50 VS Nitecore HC65??

    i literally got the hl60r this week, there are too many controls sequences for the nitecore 65, the headlamp was originally for my wife, after going into strobe mode 3 times on our walk, i ordered the hl60r. its dead simple and has a lot of pro's over the nitecore. i do love my hp30r, but the...
