    Peak Eiger and 10440 question What do you use?

    My Eiger ss/narrow head is ok with an ultra fire. It doesn't ramp up smoothly but can be adjusted to close to where I want it. The light runs very smooth with lithiums but because it is half the voltage it gives off half the light. I don't mind the little twitch it gets while ramping up with...

    Using sewing machine oil on threads?

    I was reading the comprehensive thread on grease and lube but didn't really see any thing about using sewing machine oil on the threads of a lite. Is it ok to do so? I have some on hand.

    What did you use your flashlight for today?

    Used a led maglite xl50 to check possible head gasket leak on my wife's subaru. Car has 170 thousand on it and the maglite is perfect for under car work when I don't use a head lamp.

    Peak Eiger and 10440 question What do you use?

    I got an Eiger stainless the for Father's Day and absolutely love the light. I am running an energizer ultimate lithium in it now and it is sweet for around the house. I really would like to run a 10440 in it to make it brighter. There are three basic batteries I have been looking at. First...
