    Pak-Light Retailers Other than The Pak-light Site?

    I've purchased a few as gifts in hurricane territory. Back when I was land locked, kept one in the coffee table as a outage light. I always used , and gifted , 6 aa to 9 volt battery holders. Easy mod, long running.

    Arc flashlight is officially out of business...again

    Arc flashlight is officially out of business...again

    I could possibly see a few, truly rare Arc AAA models going for exorbitant prices, let's say a sterile -no engraving, red , CPF edition or a blue or green anodize sample in pristine condition . But I can't help but wonder WHO is paying that for the mass production product :) ? For those...

    Arc flashlight is officially out of business...again

    Mcgizmo Haiku Refinishing

    I've used Esteban Acosta with Tisurvival(dot)com and also Wayofknife(dot)com for titanium anodizing services back when I did mods. Both, at that time, produced excellent results. I always used a photo app to mark where masking , if any, should occur.

    Is PK now working for Jetbeam?
