    Makita 12V Has Potential, but Not Lumens.

    I had a 14.4v Makita light and tried to run a Bi-pin Soldered to the contacts (not a pr drop in). Ran a Osram 64623 which was the brightest thing I've seen till after about 5 seconds the plastic body started to melt!! Not the reflector or other but the body below the swivel point! I think the...

    Which one is better leatherman micra or squirt s4?

    This is a good point, but for me, I expect to lose something this small every 3 or 4 years. It would be different with a larger multi tool that is not EDC or keyringed etc.

    solitaire mod??

    I think I've lost more money in wrecked lights, blown leds (4 crees on a CPU hotsink!) , and fried boards just simply replacing 5mm leds, than if I had bought the desired light for each project. Will I stop? No way. Its all learning I guess and hopefully I wiil one day be able to mod lights to...

    1D or 1C light

    Good ideas about the cut down mag- I love the look of the little stubby! I wanted to use it as a bike light also- have seen some great mods using the mag head/cut down body, but dont have the equipment to re-thread it myself and being in OZ, it just seems like a hassle to get one from a modder...

    1D or 1C light

    Are there any 1D or 1C lights out there? With the advent of 3.7v rechargeables in this size now available at some of the HK discount stores, I'm looking for a host!! I'm also in Australia so may need to be a cheap online option.... Robert

    Thoughts on multi tool with scissors

    My pliers are on a Schrade ST1 multitool, and happy with that, I just wanted something for the car or bag with scissors instead of pliers. I have being doing some searching, does anyone know much about the Paul Chen multi tasker? It has some serious scissors/shears out front...

    Thoughts on multi tool with scissors

    I'm trying to decide between the gerber shortcut or the leatherman s4. I've got a few miultitools and SAK's, but wouldnt mind some spare scissors-type. Any thoughts or something else I've not considered. Robert

    CREE XR-EHEADER P4 Headlamp from kaidomain

    Just got the cree version today. Build quality is average, typical of a real no name headlamp but the throw----- its somewhere inbetween the P3D on turbo and high. The beam flood/spill is the ugliest i have ever seen, and I'm not really picky. Its very noticeable in outdoor use (not one to...
