    Peak Eiger Ultra with 3.7v

    My new Logan QTC I got around 2 months ago had similar symptoms. It was ok with 1.2 V and 1.5 V cells, but with 3 V and 3.7 V it gave random strobe show almost like there was a loose electrical contact, even with the head tightened. After checking everything piece by piece I found the source of...

    Good old classic Surefire A2

    I use spent MA02 LA to host those bulbs in A2 head. Here are some examples: MA02 stock, MA02 with Strion bulb: MA02 stock, MA02 with 3.7 V Chinese bulb: MA02 with 3 V Maglite Mag-Num Star II. With this diameter bulb there's no more room for plastic collar: So it is basically replacing...

    Good old classic Surefire A2

    Overall, Aviator is still my favourite light, and I find the only competitor for it to be mcgizmo luna-sol. It becomes hard to get MA02, but there is hope for those who still believe in A2 and it's incandescent beam. Just by replacing 1 resistor in LVR, Aviator's output can be supressed...

    QTC **POLL** functionality

    I used qtc in my primary edc lights for a long time, but abandoned eventually. I removed the pill from my Eiger and transformed it to good old 2 stage ~2/100+ lumens twist/momentary UI. I tend to use flashlight mostly in short bursts manner, so I want it to be quick and responsive. I realised...

    How many lights do you EDC? Part 2

    2 or 3, depending on outfit formality = available pocket space. Most often my primary is Peak Eiger 10440, but when there's something going on, I wear cargo pants so primary place is taken over by SF A2, and Eiger becomes backup. No matter what, there is always Quantum DD on my neck.

    Eiger / Momentay Switch / Prometheus Clip Question

    Screw off the momentary and check if it has a little spring on top of it. If yes, extend the spring 1-2 mm, so it can reach bottom of battery. If there's no spring, you need to extend the brass pin, for example with a blob of solder. There's an oring inside momentary switch, which we don't want...

    Solataire with stuck battery

    Remove the bulb and gently tease plastic ring (that with 2 holes) with needle or other sharp tool. It's just press fit. Now you will see another plastic part with metal contacts. Find some kind of rod that's the same diameter as plastic part, but thin enough not to destroy aluminum collar. Use...

    Peak Logan QTC - Nice!!!

    I think it's not that hard to do. Maybe pocket style body + "snap on" type of clip like that from AA MiniMag or Fenix LD series can make this setup possible.

    This is how my Surefire A2 became my favorite light

    I also have A2 with Calipsoii multimode LED ring, 2 warm white + 1 red. I frosted all LEDs and now the low beam is very floody and smooth. I use RCR123s in it but I never let them deplete to the point incan fall out of regulation. I check voltage often and recharge if it's less than 3,8 V per...

    O-Ring Size

    On my Eiger, oring outer diameter is 12 mm and it's 1,5 mm thick.

    Peak Logan pocket clip?

    Center hole diameter of clip is around 9,3 mm. To make momentary to work with clip installed, momentary pin has to be lengthened by the value of clip thickness(this makes momentary work just like there was no clip).
