    Police Duty Light - Getting Rid of Stinger Please Help!

    Looking for a light similar to the Streamlight Stinger, but with lithium batteries and longer run time. I have had it go out multiple times at night in bad places after a fresh charge. I no longer trust it. I basically need a light big enough to tuck under my armpit, with a side pressure switch...

    Streamlight Stinger

    I just ran them both with a full charge and they went for about 75 minutes on full constant on. I think the issue must be with battery drain. I fully charged it and threw it on my belt. A few days later is when I only got 20 minutes off of it. Do they batteries deplete that rapidly normally?

    Streamlight Stinger

    Sorry I actually have the NIMH I misspoke. Both of them are LED, the HL DS model. I will check out the peacekeeper, thanks! I like the lithium capabilities of the strion so I can see why you chose it. Thanks for your reply!

    Streamlight Stinger

    I have a question regarding the Streamlight Stinger. I own two of them so I can keep one on the charger and one with me, and I switch before I leave for my shift. A few days ago I was conducting a building search and had the light on for approximately 20 consistent minutes. It began to drop...

    Budget Light Recommendation

    Hey guys I am looking for a budget light for a friend who inspects houses. He needs something to look in attics and basements. I was leaning toward a 2 AA or 3 AA alkaline light but if there are not many good ones I could possibly invest in a 18650 charger and batteries for him if it will be...

I also would also like to be able to activate it for .5 seconds via forward clicky in order to avoid giving my position away. 1) How would you prefer to purchase...

    NDI UI problem

    I received an NDI via BST. For those of you who know the UI and User Defined Brightness, I can get the light to go to High, strobe and user mode but cannot get the user mode to fade from high to low. I put it in user mode and quickly tightened and loosened the bezel in the same way I do it when...

    Rubber cap for lense

    I have looked over google but have not been able to find it. I am looking for a rubber cap that will slip over the lens in order to protect it from my keys while in my pocket. I made a pouch out of half hitching and 550 cord but it is too bulky for certain jeans with smaller pockets. Help!

    Help me find a EDC

    I have a kabar dozier, kershaw scallion and spyderco persistence. All of them are great. The dozier is great if I am going to be putting a bit more wear on it because of how cheap it is, the scallion is good for compact carry and the persistence is just great all around.

    Sharpening system

    I ended up getting the sharpmaker and a nice strop. The sharpmaker is pretty good after you get used to it, however like many have said, it is more used for touch ups. When I have to reprofile from 30 to 40 degrees it takes almost an hour. However, when I am done with it and the strop, push...
