    The lounge 2104 (Closed)

    Re: What VN (or other)lights do you have in your vehicle? Nitecore Tube always on my keychain. Sk68 incase it gets lost or broken, I won't mind. And a Feit Electric 500 lumen 2 mode Costco special. 3C lasts a long time and is basically a baton. Sent from my iPhone using Candlepowerforums

    What was the last LED light you purchased and why?

    Assuming you're referring to the pd35, comes on in the last mode you left it. Eco, lo mid high turbo. Strobe hidden by holding down the mode switch which is nice. So far great light. I don't have a tint pref at all so it's great for me! Sent from my iPhone using Candlepowerforums

    What was the last LED light you purchased and why?

    Just received (before Christmas) my new Fenix PD35 2014 Edition with 4 cr123 cells, and velcro (yuck) holster. Light is great so far, love the mode spacing and light weight. Seems considerably thinner walled than my Klarus ST 11 though. So far love it. Also got two Nitecore Tube Li-ion for...

    Ultrafire or not?

    I purchased a C8 ultra fire from fleabay on the cheap. They eat up the power on 18650s, and I hate having to cycle past strobe and SOS to get back to high. That said, they were a great intro into high powers lights, and a great kitchen tool to knock around for under $20. Get some real protected...

    Incoming - What do you have coming in the mail??

    My new EDC, a Fenix pd35 2014 edition, along with some cr123s. I've always used 18650. Should they be brighter because of the higher voltage? And a pair of nitecore tubes. One for me and one for the wife. Really wanted the clear, but only black in stock to ship and get here before christmas...

    Help with Klarus ST 11 not working right!

    Klarus emailed back finally. They are sending a whole new tail piece in the mail. Crossing fingers because I really like the output and UI on this light! Anyone thoughts on XT11/12 vs the updated Fenix TK22?

    Help with Klarus ST 11 not working right!

    TY for response, No, it doesn't and I've tried tightening everything several times. I really don't want to have to send it back to Klarus and wait FOREVER for it. :( Anyone else have a problem with this light or manufacturer?

    Help with Klarus ST 11 not working right!

    Hi all, been using my Klarus st 11 for almost a year now. About 2 weeks ago, it has been working intermittently for no apparent reason. Has seen regular use, NO abuse. Tested fresh 18650, which worked in another light, so that wasn't the problem. It has seen zero drops, bangs, water even. It...

    What did you use your flashlight for today?

    Clipped my Klarus ST-11 to my hat as I shop vac'd lots of water from my basment. Long Island got hammered with 13" of rain in 12 hours! Sent from my iPhone using Candlepowerforums

    losing my taste for steak

    All of our tastes are changing. Chicken 10 years ago isn't what it is today. Gmo in corn and grain are affecting how the final product is when consumed. Sadly, not much we can do about it. Try buying a piece of organic grass fed antibiotic free angus beef vs generic? Sent from my iPhone...

    Wifey is Perplexed: My Obsession...

    I guess I'm quite lucky mine gets and encourages it. To a spending degree. After Irene and Sandy hit, and after some emergency roadside darkness I got the "buy what you must just dont let it be dark again!" What should my next light be ? Hmmmm pd35? Sent from my iPhone using Candlepowerforums

    LED Safety Triangles

    Hi, recently I had to help a family member on the side of the NJ turnpike which was incredibly dangerous and dark. I had a couple lights set on the road to add to the hazard lights but they still weren't really sufficient. I'm searching for some kind of safety triangle or LED road flare in the...

    What did you use your flashlight for today?

    A couple nights a go, my sibling got stuck on our way home from vacation on the NJ turnpike. I was 1 exit ahead so I circled back to help them out and take some passengers. The whole vacation my inlaws joked that I carry too many lights with me for no reason, even in daylight. even when in...
