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

[RGRAY]

That "Triode" is outstanding. It would really go well with the Tain Thud that was just listed..............

The only thing is it's made of aluminum.

 

[Warp]

Surefire XC1 (for the third time, hopefully this one WORKS)
Thrunite TN12 (my only 18650 tailcap clickly right now is a years old TN11 that stays in the car)
Nitecore MT10A (first 14500 light, super bring tailcap clicky that is pocketable and good to have something decent that runs on any AA format battery)

Hopefully I receive all this week

Be careful with those 14500 cells as they don't exist , 1200mah and certainly 2300mah is made up figures. Iirc the highest is around 840mah from Sanyo , anything more is not happening . Who knows what's inside, could even be a 10440 cell packed with sand!

The pany B cells are good !

Thank you for the heads up. I have stuck to AAA lights prior to these orders.

Avoid anything ending in fire and stick with good brands like KeepPower to name one. Panasonic , Sanyo , Samsung ,LG,Sony . Charger wise Xtar and nitecore do well priced decent chargers to get you going . Ideally ones with a voltage readout to keep an easier eye on things .

Umm, with that rig I don't think you are "new" anymore.

I have the much vaunted Convoy L6 on the way. :rock:

 

[Chauncey Gardiner]

I decided to pull the trigger on the last best chance to own a red, a yellow, a blue and a toxic green Preon2. I ordered all the individual parts to make them from FourSevens. Now for the three day wait.........

I'm getting back into the scene after a few years away. I've got the following:

Acebeam K60 (bought locally from fstoplights - wow, it's impressive!)
2x Convoy S2+ (neutral white, 2.1a)
Manker E14 (Nichia)
Solarstorm X2 (neutral white)
4x NCR18650GA batteries
2S2P Solarstorm battery box

Now just gotta wait on the shipments from Gearbest, Kaidomain, and Fasttech!

Coming in the mail: MX25L4CvnT, DriverVNX2, XPL pdt, ANSI lumen 5000, lux 185K, throw 860m.

Performance specs for this light are close to performance specs for lights that are significantly larger in head diameter and significantly heavier. Anything with some more throw and similar lumens is a lot heavier and bulkier.

This item has maximum throw to weight ratio in a 2.5 inch diameter package, with 5,000 lumens in a 550 gram package with batteries, versus similar performing lights that weigh about 750 grams with batteries, and that also have larger head diameter.

Now for the two and a half day wait. But I can't complain about that. Vinh mailed this to me a few days earlier than what was expected, considering the method of payment that I use. Thanks, Vinh!

Sounds amazing richbuff, exciting times

Just ordered a DQG Ti VIII Titanium AAA/10440 (Neutral White) to replace my ancient Arc-P that has finally died (yes I've cleaned it, also wanted more than one mode and a brighter LED)

Scored one of Mr. Menards personal lights.
