    What was the first commercially available LED flashlight?

    The Tek lights were the first I remember seeing.

    Anyone Still Using Proton Pro?

    I got one about 10 months ago and it quickly turned into one of my all time favorites (HDS is still #1). The UI is the best out there, and simple enough my 6 year old quickly figured it out. I got 2 more before Christmas, 1 for my BOB and 1 for my 6 yr old son. My biggest problem with it was...

    Your BoB lights

    On the outside, my BOB has an Arc+P tucked into the PALS webbing and kept secure with a titanium quick link. Inside, I keep a Photon Proton Pro (say that three times fast) with a lanyard. They were both edc that impressed me enough to get seconds and semi-retire them. I like the fact that these...

    Proton Pro questions

    I've been carrying mine regularly for almost 2 months and haven't had a bit of a problem. I can't see any wear on the high spots yet. I'm happy enough with it I think I'll order another for back up. I won't say it's my favorite light, I've got a couple of SFs and a milkyspit modded HDS...

    Proton Pro or a newer light?

    I've had one for a few weeks now and it's become my favorite carry light. It has the best UI out there, so simple someone playing with it can figure it out pretty quickly. I didn't think I would much care for the red LED, but I find myself using it quite a bit. Easy on the eyes and more than...

    Single AA light for X mas gifts

    My newest, most favorite light is the Photon Proton Pro (say that 5 times!) Photon is most known for their photon keychain lights. However, it is a side clicky. The reason it's my favorite AA light is the user interface. It is, without a doubt, the most friendly, most intuitive UI I've seen...

    Brett Favre is a New York Jet!

    Am I the only one that thinks Brett acted like a jerk over this whole thing? And then he gets his widdle feelings hurt. "I'm retiring!" "Ooops...changed my mind." "I'm retiring again!" "Uhhh, .....I'm back?" I'm hoping the next time it's for good. Then we won't have to watch the drama queen...

    Sold/Expired BeadBlast Service Needed

    Try looking at some local autoparts stores. Not AutoZone, but the higher end performance type places. A lot of them do light machine work and use a bead blast cabinet. Here's what I've done a couple of dozen times over the years. I'll get a six pack of beer (or carton of Cokes) and knock on...

    Duracoat for flashlights test done

    What? You don't have an oven in the kitchen? Seriously, I've not cured Duracoat, but I've heated Kydex, cured polyurethane, and given epoxy and fiberglass final cures. My wife complains a bit, but it's not too bad. I preheat the oven to a couple of hundred degrees, turn it off and put the...

    Help Finding a Wide Throw Light

    O.K., it's a bit more than $100, but the SureFire L2 is an awesome wall of light. It's got everything you want, just a wall of light without much of a hotspot. If you're used to those big old clunky 6 volts, you'll be truly amazed by the size of the L2 and the sheer amount of light it puts...

    goofy Surefire question

    Several of my Surefire lights have a silver/white dot sticker on the side of the head. Is there a reason for it?

    Surefire Cree longer runtime?

    I've been kind of sitting on the fence about getting the new cree L1, but no longer. You guys just gave me the push I needed.

    Spiderview...

    When I was in high school, we used to go driving around with a Q-beam spotlighting rabbits. The spiders would give us false alarms. Sometimes there would be so many of them that it would look like someone had crop dusted with glitter.
