    Who sells Tritium lights?

    Have you seen the Kickstarter thread on here? Also check out BLF forums, I have seen several threads over there with trits installed in lights.

    Giveaway Thread (general info)

    Thanks for the heads up. I did not know that but I do always handle them with gloves. The only thing I have ever heard that may deter them is treating the area to kill any grubs and such that are there. I live in a very rual area. Too many wooded areas me. There is just no way to keep them away...

    Giveaway Thread (general info)

    I am in for the Eagletac SX25L3 This looks like a great light for hunting the armadillos that are destroying my lawn. I have about six acres that I maintain and a light like this would give me the range to see the little critters way out there. Have read about this emitter and have been wanting...

    Thrunite Rocks!

    I too received my TN4A NW in just two days. I was very impressed with the speed of shipping. I don't have any other 4AA lights to compare it to but it is a very capable light. Like you say the size of the beam coming out the front seems massive. However it doesn't really overpower the spill when...

    Jetbeam PC20 Clip Broken

    I have a JetBeam PC20 that is my EDC light. Today it slipped off of the strap I keep it on and fell about a foot onto a hardwood floor. I noticed a funny clink sound and looked down to see my clip in two pieces beside the light. :shakehead Very disappointing. Does anyone have any idea if...

    Power Outage 40+Hrs thanks CPF

    Thanks to a little ice storm here in south Georgia I have been without power for the last 40 some odd hours.:( The Olight set that Keith (ksbman) generously donated in the Christmas give away came in quite handy. From lighting up a room with a ceiling bounce to lighting my path while rolling...

    Throw of Lumens Factory SR-9??

    Hey guys, The lamp in my Maxfire has sadly expired. It seems I can get a Lumens Factory SR-9 cheaper than the Brinkmann Lamp. These say they are focused for ultimate spot. My question is how much throw should I expect from this lamp? I assume it will be at least as good as the original since it...

    Tiablo Ace.g vs Thrunight Catapult V2

    Okay, I missed out on the Catapult that I was considering so that makes my decision a little easier I guess. Unless,of course, I find another light for 100 bucks that competes with the Ace. So far that hasn't happened. Thanks again guys. -Bake

    Tiablo Ace.g vs Thrunight Catapult V2

    Thanks Grubrunner, nice to have input from an owner of the light. I think the Ace may be more of what I am looking for than the Catapult. Beam looks very white from what I can see in beam shots. Lots of spill compared to dedicated throwers. Buckley, thanks for the link. There are some great...

    Tiablo Ace.g vs Thrunight Catapult V2

    Yeah, I have been reading about bins for a while now. I see that the Ace has a WC bin which I think I have figured out is pretty close to bright white. I don't know yet what M rank means. :thinking: Looking at a review by Selfbuilt the Ace looks pretty good. I would like to see a beam shot at...

    Tiablo Ace.g vs Thrunight Catapult V2

    Yep, it does PJD. Thanks much for your observations. I know it is a large light which I was willing to deal with considering the throw. However, A blue beam is not something i want. For use in the woods or looking across a field on a damp night I have found an led with a blue tint to be less...

    Tiablo Ace.g vs Thrunight Catapult V2

    :candle: Hmmmm? No one has any thoughts on these two lights? How about a word about build quality at least from someone that has handled one or both brands?

    What was the last LED light you purchased and why?

    Two Brinkmann ArmorMax LED lights. One single AA and one Three AAA. Because I have liked this style Brinkmann since I bought a Maxfire some years ago. I don't know about other Brinkmann lights, but these seem to be some of the best for the money. They were twenty bucks shipped each. As expected...

    Tiablo Ace.g vs Thrunight Catapult V2

    Okay guys help me out. I am not looking for a throw only light. I have read that the Ace.G is not the thrower that the A10.G was and that may actually make it the light I am looking for. The Catapult looks good also so i am not sure which way to go here. What I am interested in is a light that...
