    New banner....something BETTER than the Arc4?

    Welcome to CPF Henry. I find it fascinating and expensive to follow the evolution led flashlights. Good luck. Now.., I like the idea of a variable strobe in your flashlight. Years ago at Union Carbide we spent $1000 on a fancy strobe so we could find out if the RPM of some motors was wandering...

    Coin battery WATERPROOF LED for Dog Collar?

    Re: UPDATE coin LED light on Dog collar-WORKS GREA For about a year now my 2 dogs have been running at night with Petzel type head lights. They wear them like a collar with the light shinning forward. I can see where they are and they can see where they are going. It's a pretty funny sight my...

    Help with my next purchase...

    You could modify the D mags with an everled; http://www.leddynamics.com/EverLED/ Also, just like the opalec, these drop into a mag aa; https://secure3.dnsaction.com/~anlighte/shop/default.php?cPath=22&osCsid=089ea9aaa553494a3893ac76599beb96

    EVERLED still in business?

    Not to thread hijack, but I found a good host for the Everled at the 99 cent store. Four side by side AA's in a black rubberized "Garrity" type flashlight, and the polarity is right. I like the 'stuby' better than the 4c Mag I took the Everled from. Smoother beam.

    Ideal LED flashlight ?

    Another vote for the TL-2. For the dog, buy a cheap led headlight and put it on the dog like a collar but facing forward under his neck. The light will be at a perfect angle for him to see where he's going. You will also know where he's at. My dogs highly recommend this.

    OHM Super LED Handylight (Nuwai Luxeon) review.

    Great review, thanks. They claim 4 hour run time on the Nuwai site http://www.nuwai.com.tw/1_watt_led.htm I'm speculating that Nuwai waits for companies to rebrand and release these lights as their own. Brookstone and Streamlight are the only companies that have released some of the Nuwai...

    10,000hr Streamlight TL-3 LED?

    Interesting observation Brightnorm. How does a 5 watt driven at 9v last 10k hours while one driven at 6v last 1000 hours? I have the lights but I don't think I'll run the test. What resister are they using in the TL-3?

    What electronics in Streamlight TTs?

    I've got the 1L all apart in a baggy right now. The boards lightly glued in and can be pushed out from the + terminal side.

    Another MR16 LED

    Chris, what kind of prices are they? I didn't register on their site, so I couldn't get prices.

    Another MR16 LED

    OptiLED has some interesting leds. 4 degree spot. 6 to 24v. http://www.optiled.biz/products/products.html Can the circuits in these lights run on dc? That bayonet base has possibilities.

    Where is the best Deal For the TL_2

    They are different lights. The TL-2 is worth $55 IMHO. The Brookstone light is a rebranded Nuwai product, http://www.nuwai.com.tw/1_watt_led.htm that I wouldn't pay more than $30 for. I'm not saying it's a bad light, I don't think it's a $50 light.
