    Nitecore EA11 First Impressions

    Warning WARNING Warning, this flashlight has a lockout mode. It is there for a reason, sadly mine was turned on accidentally in the holster at the turbo level. This flashlight gets Very Very hot. Lesson learned always use the lockout or unscrew. Further testing is on going.

    LI Ion Vs IMR ???????

    Hello, I have the new Nitecore EA11 coming in the mail c/w a 14500 IMR cell. I also own (2) 14500 li-ion protected batteries with more mah (750 li-ion vs 600 imr). I believe it will be okay to use the li-ion 750 mah batteries but the performance will be slightly less then the imr cells. Is this...

    Tell Us What Do You Use Your HeadLamp For?

    I use mine for biking at night. The bell on my bike does not always get walkers attention, so 500 lumens stuns them long enough for me to zip by. Trouble is not laughing too hard at the look on their face. :)

    Fenix E41 & PD35 VS Nitecore EA41 & P12 ?

    Hey, I own both lights and have had issues with both. The pd35 had a intermittent tail switch which required replacing. The P12 fell from 3' and impacted directly on the head, resulting force applied to battery(Redilast 18650) causing button top to be pushed in. The springs at both ends of the...

    NITECORE MH1A Review (1xAA/14500)

    This is the most underrated and often overlooked flashlight available today. I use mine at work and as an EDC light and the power to size ratio is perfect. This is a feature packed light. I purchased mine beginning of 2013 for $50, now they are $75 which is somewhat puzzling. Nitecore hit a...

    Thrunite TN12 2014 (XM-L2, 1x18650, 2xCR123A/RCR) Review: BEAMSHOTS, RUNTIME, VIDEO+

    Great job as usual. I have had some flickering issues with my PD35 and replacing the tail switch has not solved the mystery. I have had many Fenix lights and never had a single issue(TK22, LD12, E01, PD35). The PD35 was purchased for use on the job. As a safety inspector my tools must be...

    LED lights that double as portable USB charger/Convert 18650 to to USB power?

    Hello, I just purchased a Fenix HP30 headlamp. 900lms on turbo, 500lms on high, comes with a separate well made battery pack that holds 2 18650 batteries and can be used to power anything with a usb cable. Take a look this thing is so bright that I use for biking at night. Good luck.

    Fenix PD35 ,850 Lm,powerful,compact 18650 flashlight-REVIEW

    I own a PD35, it worked well for the first month. I seem to have a serious issue with the switch, my flashlight is temperamental and unreliable. I think Fenix should recall them and do further testing. If other people have the same issue please post it. I own many Fenix lights and hope this is...

    *** Fenix User Group ***

    :fail: I have been a loyal Fenix flashlight consumer, with 3 Fenix lights in my collection(LD12, TK22, and PD35 ).My PD35 is all but useless due to a switch problem, as this is my most often used light this is a big issue. Fenix promised to rectify the problem by sending me a new switch. After...

    Fenix TK61

    Hey, does the tk61 come in a hard plastic case like the tk75? I ask that because when traveling or camping, I want to protect my investment when it is daylight.
