    MAG-TAC Battery Help Needed

    Yup - doesn't work as voltage is too low. Interestingly, CR123 primaries when exhausted in a Mag-Tac stiil have plenty of oomph for other CR123 lights.

    La Police Gear L1 + L2 flashlights

    I, too, am much impressed with the L1, and may add the L2 (which I need not at all). I'm not sure "high" in the non-tactical mode is identical the the tactical "high" (not quite as bright), but both high settings are still crazy bright.

    The SureFire 6PX/G2X Tactical and 6PX/G2X Pro Thread

    I agree, entirely. The 320 version is a real disappointment.

    Dedome Maglite 2015 new LED light ML50L

    It does feel noticeably lighter and less substantial than its incan predecessor but it's actually a very nice and useful light, and not "cheap" feeling. The 3 brightness levels are easily accessed and offer ideal choices.

    Question concerning Maglite 2AA

    I emailed Maglite Customer Service to ask that question and their response was that all rechargeables will shorten the life of Mag leds. Their rationale is that rechargeables maintain a constant voltage while the alkalines (which their lights are designed to use) do not. Does this make sense to...

    Surefire LFP 123A lithium-phosphate rechargeable batteries

    Surefire Customer Service advises that Surefire is looking for a different manufacturer, and that the replacement rechargeable batteries would be available on the website although unsure when. My guess is that inventory supplies were erratic.

    question about new surefire and tint

    Surefire tells me that all new models now display a much warmer tint to improve color rendition. Personally, I preferred the older and whiter tints (think 6P LED, etc).

    Surefire L4: efficient and economical battery solution?

    My AW 17670s would not fit the L4 but found another home in a Streamlight ProTac 2L, where all is well.

    What was the last LED light you purchased and why?

    The Solarforce L2N is a really sweet light.

    Who makes SureFire 123 batteries?

    I wouldn't be surprised if Surefire uses different manufacturing sources. Interestingly, the Surefire batteries which I bought from Surefire during their Christmas special have different packaging and appearance (black rings at collar and tail with plus and minus signs indicated, etc).

    Battery Station vs. Panasonic CR123A?

    Gene Malkoff ships his lights with BatteryStation batteries and I have found no difference between Surefires and BatteryStation. I suspect they are all (including the Surefires) actually made by RayoVac.
