    Are there any USA companies that will design custom LED Dies and drivers?

    I know enough about LED's and drivers to be dangerous, but not enough to get into custom circuit design. I'm working on a project that will involve a triple LED board with a custom driver (ideally a single driver board, not 3) that will drive each LED separately. Power supplies can be separate...

    Olight I3T EOS button getting slow/harder to push...

    This has happened a couple times with my Olight clickies. Their clicky design is a little different than most others: Most clickies have a silicone/rubber cap that waterproofs the light and the click mechanism inside that. Olight uses a metal or plastic button and for waterproofing it has an...

    Practical Uses for Acebeam's E10 Mini-Thrower.

    My brother has an Olight Mini Marauder, same idea as the E10. He showed me indoors and I was very unimpressed. It was very bright but seemed like a toy. Made a 12” circle of light on the wall… He brought it to my cabin a few weeks later and we used it outdoors: whoa! I had a floody 2000 lumen...

    Anything new expected from Zebralight in the near future?

    I've always been a big fan of Zebralight, they seem to get runtimes and brightnesses perfect with every launch. And of course they always offer a really nice Neutral White option. I'm looking for an 18650 headlamp and though their offerings still seem competitive, it looks like they haven't...

    Malkoff MDC: haven't bought it because primaries only

    I thought about doing this but then you're committed to Li-ion. It's not too much to expect an LED flashlight in 2022 to take both.

    Malkoff MDC: haven't bought it because primaries only

    I've had the MDC in my cart so many times, but every time I can't press but because it can't run on 16340's. Seems like such a crazy miss on this light. I make myself feel better by reminding myself it's only 250 lumens... Man is it a good looking light though.

    AA Twist Flashlight that works well on primaries

    Looking for a dedicated light to leave in my hunting backpack. I mostly use a Zebralight H52w on Energizer Lithiums and would like as small as possible of a twisty AA. Ideally it would have 2 or 3 modes. Max brightness isn't too important, but more than 100 Lumens would be nice. Neutral or...

    Source for Quark tailcap switches?

    I have quite the collection of Foursevens Quarks and unfortunately have a tailcap switch go out every year or two. Seems to be almost my only issue with them. I had a few extra tail caps but those have been used up. Anyone know where to get just the switches to swap in? All of mine are the...

    New Olight i5R

    I've had mine for a couple days now: I love this thing! Tint is great (very neutral) The battery is really cool and matched perfectly to this light. Great brightness levels and amazing runtimes. A better combination than any of my AA (1.5V) or 14500 (4.2V) lights. I have a few small Olights...

    New Olight i5R

    I have one one of these on the way. The proprietary battery to me is just an extra you get. The i5r is compatible with 1.2v rechargables and 1.5v alkaline just like the i5T was! You can throw the battery away from day one if you want. I normally hate proprietary batteries, but couple them...

    I hate mode memory, and does anyone like it?

    I no longer own flashlights with mode memory, and am very thankful for this. Perhaps Zebralight spoiled me but I can't carry a light that I have no clue what mode it will come on in. Every time I would turn one on before I would have to see what mode it came on in, think about it, then cycle...
