    Sunwayman D40A (XM-L2, 4xAA) Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS, VIDEO + more

    I've had this for a few years now. It's really nicely made and will be useful for a long time. But since it is my most expensive (and cherished) light I rarely take it out and use it. Better use the beaten-up old ones for that. I'm a fool.

    Review: Fenix E16, EDC, XP-L, 1x16340/CR123A, 700 lumens, beamshots

    Thanks for the review. This looks interesting. It wouldn't just work with a d-cell, would it?

    Sunwayman D40A (XM-L2, 4xAA) Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS, VIDEO + more

    Received the light a few days ago. It is very nicely made and a joy to hold. Noticed the "ultra firefly" on it too. Another thing is accidental activation of the strobe. Change modes too quickly and there it is. Quick question: How does the lanyard work with this? Am I supposed to use the hook...

    'SHOT SHOW Special' Review: FOURSEVENS Preon P2 in 'Toxic Green' (2xAAA)

    I wholeheartedly agree. This is much preferable to the alternative in my opinion. Great light and great review.

    Weird request: tea candle replacement

    There are numerous occasions for a tea light these days: perhaps the children are having a lantern procession or when tinkering with early Christmas decoration. My wife came home with a big red star in which you could insert a tea candle. But I thought I could do a little better than that. So...

    Olight S10 Baton (XM-L, 1xCR123A/RCR) Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS, VIDEO and more!

    That was funny, seeing the initial pictures of the light, expecting a somewhat bigger unit... and then realizing the actual tiny size. Thanks for the great review.

    Do you quickly get used to brighter lights?

    Depends on what you need the new light for I suppose. I use it to find my way in the woods when it's dark. I like the 6 lumens of my ITP SA2 as it allows me to circumvent puddles and spot obstacles without impairing my adapted eyes too much and take away my (natural) night vision. Newer lights...

    Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G)

    Re: Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G) Fantastic review as always, great lamp, seemingly, with a too complex UI scheme for my tastes.

    Quality AA budget lights?

    The good old ITP SA2 Eluma (2xAA) and its little brother SA1 (1xA) have not been mentioned yet. I don't know if you can find a lamp with a XPG-R5 LED cheaper than that. The built-quality is nothing to complain about. I use both for about a year now and they have not failed me yet.

    Olight Baton S35 & S65 (XM-L, 3xAA and 6xAA) Review: RUNTIMES, VIDEOS, BEAMSHOTS +

    360 vs 120 hours I noticed something funny with the specs for the S65. A lot of shops (also the first page of this thread) list the low power mode to run for 360 hours: http://tinyurl.com/89saks7 On Olight's page they are saying it's 120 hours though, which makes more sense to me...

    How Long Before You Realized What You Like?

    My thought process this far: 1. "Hey, flashlights have come a long way. This is interesting and useful. I guess I'll take a small one and a slightly bigger one." So I bought ITP's A3 EOS and the SA1. 2. "These are nice, but the A3 is a bit gimmicky and not useful for every day, as it is not...

    Olight Baton S35 & S65 (XM-L, 3xAA and 6xAA) Review: RUNTIMES, VIDEOS, BEAMSHOTS +

    S65 I have the S65 for two weeks now. Frankly the promise of 700 lumens convinced me to try it out. 360 (edit: actually 120) hours at 20 lumens sounds great too for those long walks in the woods with the dog. It came in a plastic case, interesting since I saw blister packaging on the web as...
