    Old light made in Hawaii.

    It's not the bullet light. It resembles a Mag light and has 3C cells.

    Old light made in Hawaii.

    I have a old silver 3C cell flashlight that I believed was made in Hawaii. It looks like similar to a Mag light, but with a nice curved head. Anyone recall who the manufacture was? I recall mine came in a plastic blister pack, so it was not a home grown product. I am looking for a new switch...

    Alkaline-Quality or lack of

    My most recent episode is with a Energizer cell in a Coast made BMW flashlight that I got from a member in the UK. When I tried the lemon juice to clean out the inside, I discovered the level of destruction caused by the leak. Thread and adjacent area destroyed along with the finish on the...

    Alkaline-Quality or lack of

    Why is it that Alkaline cells are so prone to leaking? Nickel metal or Lithium ions have never leaked on me. At least not yet. Alkaline seems to leak and destroy everything... This year I have lost a Icom hand held radio, a Streamlight and a Coast light due to alkaline cells. Why I use...

    Osram Night Breaker PLUS???

    I've been using the Night Breaker for quite some time. Likely the first few guinea pig to try it out. I noticed the clear window, but have never noticed any blue hue off the beam. I enjoy the bulbs so much for their whiter beam than the Silverstar(euro) they replaced. They are brighter and...

    When your life depends on your battery . . . yeah right!

    What I am learning from this thread is to use LSD nimh or lithium. Are you talking about cells like the E2? I generally don't get them due to cost, but if they don't leak like alkaline cells, then it is the cheap insurance. I've just found a hand held radio and a Streamlight flashlight with...

    Seoul P4 and Cree XR-E R2 Comparison

    That really shows how long I've been away. I didn't even know about the Rebels until I saw a reference to them used on the new M*gs. I need to find a reference between the Lumileds, Cree and Seoul tech to catch up.

    Seoul P4 and Cree XR-E R2 Comparison

    Been away for awhile, Seoul p4 were the hot emitters then. I noticed alot of good comments on the R2 and it's advantage of runtime due to efficiency. Anyone with a quick primer on the positives or negatives of the latest bins and merits of the R2, so I can catch up again. I loved the P4 for...

    I would be interested in a number of D cell covers. Is this a preorder situation or should I wait until available? I would like at least 3 of at least three to four colors for a dozen units. Thanks.

    Anything brighter than 30K Nichia LED

    Thanks. Looks like I have a little reading to catch up on. I was playing with a keychain light I ordered from DX awhile back and the brightness always impressed me. I was thinking on upgrading my Photon Micro light. Thanks again.

    Anything brighter than 30K Nichia LED

    Anyone aware of 5mm LED being brighter than the 30K mcd Nichias offered for sale earlier this year? Anyone know where I can get some of the Nichias. I had some Peak snows and really liked them. Until I got one of the Nichia.

    DX and PayPal fees?

    Makes sense. In the past when I ordered from DX or Kai, what the total added up to was the same charged on PP...
