    Streamlight TL3 is pretty awesome

    Does it have the stock bulb? Also, twice as bright usually won't look twice as bright to the naked eye.

    Streamlight TL3 is pretty awesome

    I happily ran my Scorpion with a TL-3 bulb and two RCR123s until I remembered that the lens is plastic LOL. Luckily it survived, and it was only slightly warped. This is why I wish I had a TL-2 with a glass lens, but they are so rare these days and I can't possibly justify paying $80 to $150 for...

    Streamlight TL3 is pretty awesome

    The TL-3 with the stock xenon bulb is supposed to be about 200 lumens, so the M4 should be twice as bright.

    Streamlight TL3 is pretty awesome

    I've had a TL-3 since probably around 2005, and with a pair of AW 17500s from the same year (they still work great after 16 years lol). I don't use it much anymore, but back in the day I would use it lots. I even dropped it on concrete a few times, the bulb never fell out, and I've never had the...

    Strion bulb for TL-3?

    Yes, they are in a sealed package. The front says "Strion" and the back has a sticker that says "TL-3 replacement bulb". Two seeming contradictions. My TL-3 is powered by two AW 17500 batteries (they are at least 15 years old but still work great lol). I don't have a 16650 battery, but I have...

    Strion bulb for TL-3?

    No, it doesn't state voltage. Dealer says he doesn't know either, so I'm at a loss.

    Strion bulb for TL-3?

    Yes, I've emailed the dealer to see if they know anything. What I wanted to ask the forum members is whether anyone knows of any instance where some type of Strion bulb can be used in a TL-3. The package says Strion, the leaflet inside says "Tactical series", and the sticker on the back has a...

    Strion bulb for TL-3?

    I recently ordered some replacement bulbs for a Streamlight TL-3 xenon through a dealer, and what I got were Strion bulbs with a sticker on the back that says "TL-3 replacement bulb". This confuses me a little since I thought Strion bulbs were 3.6V and TL-3 bulbs are 9V. I've searched the forum...

    I got my first flashlight. Whats next?

    That's because the vase looks like it could be some kind of monster thrower that we've never seen before :p

    It was foggy - Beamshot Review (Picture Heavy)

    Re: Lights and Fog I think less light is the key in fog or smoke, simply because less light will be reflected back at you. Also, holding the light lower to the ground below eye-level will result in less light being reflected directly into your eyes and allow you to see what is being...

    What LED flashlight is sitting on your nightstand?

    I ceiling bounce my SC62w, perfect with the low firefly modes at night.

    LED flashlight enthusiasm seems to be waning

    The funny thing is that the BLF A6 has remarkable consistency when it comes to tint. I bought four in all because I didn't know which tint I wanted (two for me, two for my brother). They consisted of a pair of neutral whites and warm whites, and the two warm whites were identical, and the two...

    LED flashlight enthusiasm seems to be waning

    One big advantage with the crazy high lumen lights is precisely that they get great runtimes on lower levels, but I agree that mode spacing is very important. I can't really think of any brand that does this better than Zebralight, insane amount of mode options but with surprisingly intuitive...
