    Props to Going Gear for Shot Show 2017!

    Yup, he did some pretty informative videos.

    Tiara / Tiara Pro. Multi-flashlights

    Ok, after 3 months, my replacement Tiara A1 Pro arrived. Armytek didn't have any more high CRI models left, so they offered to replace my light with a XP-L warm one. I accepted, but that meant that they had to ship it from China. Unlike my old light, this replacement light does actually have...

    As of 2016, what brands are known for their reliability?

    Thrunite kind of flies under the radar, but all of their lights I have owned have been flawless. Their customer service is great too.

    In case of an EMP - Does my Computerized Flashlight Still Work?

    I am using the term "ground" in the circuit sense - i.e. it's the part of your circuit where your electric potential (voltage) is considered to be zero. In a flashlight, that is the part of your circuit with the same potential as the negative electrode of the battery. In other words, because...

    In case of an EMP - Does my Computerized Flashlight Still Work?

    If the flashlight is using the aluminum body as the ground, would the body be acting as a Faraday cage, or as an antenna?

    Tiara / Tiara Pro. Multi-flashlights

    The Tiara A1 doesn't have a second turbo mode (nor does the manual state it has a second one). The Tiara A1 Pro's manual, however, does say it has two turbo modes, while my light only has one. Regardless, ArmyTek asked me by E-mail to return my light.

    Tiara / Tiara Pro. Multi-flashlights

    If your post was directed at me, I already did that. I get one blink, which I believe is for AA.

    Tiara / Tiara Pro. Multi-flashlights

    That is really disappointing. My non-Pro Tiara A1 has a 450 lumen turbo mode that works fine on Eneloops. I am majorly disappointed in my Tiara Pro. Even more so considering that my non-Pro Tiara A1 is one of my favorite headlamps (despite the made-up run times in the manual). My non-Pro Tiara...

    Are you flood or throw?

    I'm a flood person. I have only two throwers (one Li-ion powered, and one NiMH powered), and I'm satisfied with that.

    Tiara / Tiara Pro. Multi-flashlights

    Update: On the 90 lumen mode with a fresh Eneloop at around 1.5 hours, the light blinked twice followed by the button giving me two yellow blinks (with a red blink out of sequence with the yellow blinks every ~10-15 yellow blinks) for about 15 minutes (and reduced its power), before switching...

    Tiara / Tiara Pro. Multi-flashlights

    I just got my third Armytek light, a Tiara A1 Pro Warm, but I think it might be defective: 1.) The 2 firefly and 3 main modes work fine. However, there is only a single turbo mode instead of the 2 listed in the manual. Holding the button after triple-clicking into turbo mode just starts cycling...
