    Anybody Available for Modding U2?

    What was accomplished with the mod & were you happy with the results? Is Nitroz on this site? (sorry, started typing before searching dawned on me) Kestrel - Thx for the photo, it gives some direction if I get more curious.

    Anybody Available for Modding U2?

    I’ve had a 17650 in mine for years, finally discharged but can’t find the charger. Just ordered 16650s & a charger. Frankly I’m afraid to screw up the light having no idea how it’s assembled. I did twist the head, it goes a few degrees each way & stops, that’s as far as I dared go.

    Anybody Available for Modding U2?

    I have a- Digital U2 Ser# A21132 Luxeon V LED (?) (Hexagon shaped) 17mm ID Tube I love the light but might be interested in modding it, primarily higher output at higher settings while keeping the lowest setting where it is or even a smidge dimmer. Distinct hot spot with generous spill...

    New for 2018 Streamlight Microstream USB Rechargeable Light

    As stated above this is a great, small, useful & effective light, throws a lot of light in high mode considering it's size. Buyers be reminded - Black starts low & double taps to high, "coyote" starts high and double taps to low, I own one of each because I bought a black one before I knew...

    Not a lot of Streamlight love? Why?

    I have a few Surefire lights (L1, L2's, 6P, G2's, U2) & Streamlights (Poly Stinger, Poly Tac, Knucklehead, Stylus Pros). I keep SF stuff in house & cars, the SL's do the dirty work @ shop & in garage. Always have a Stylus Pro in my pocket @ work & use it frequently throughout the day. I think...

    How many lumens is your edc?

    My edc is a Streamlight Stylus Pro @ 48 lumens. Manage an auto repair shop & use it multiple times a day. Tried keeping an L1 & G2L on me but too bulky. Tried the 3 cell AAA Blue Point (Snap On) & it is a tad long, though very bright. This SL "penlight" has ample brightness & is compact...

    Zebralight: off centered led on forehead being an issue ?

    Never had a problem but I do sometimes bias the led to one side or the other for angle or keeping my hands out of the beam to avoid shadows.

    Flashlights You Bought This Month - May 2012

    Just bought a Streamlight Knucklehead. Very solid almost to the point of being too heavy. Very bright & floody. Head swivels on 2 planes, strong magnet + a hanging hook. Comes w/ the usual AC/DC charging station & a spare battery, also has a tube that accepts AA batteries if necessary...

    streamlight polytac vs surefire G2

    A little late to the dance but I happen to have bought both G2L & Polytach C4 same night @ Cabellas when they had SF on sale. As a result of the sale, PT was $10 more expensive. Got them out in the dark, on the outskirts of the parking lot. PT was much brighter, much more throw, kinda nice...
