    Any experience with Powerowl lithium batteries (non-rechargeable)?

    I've used the Powerowl primary lithium AAs and AAAs for the last few months with great results. Amazon. I'm very pleased with my buying decision and recommend them wholeheartedly. Especially considering they are a fraction of the cost of the Energizer Lithiums and have the same rated capacity...

    Fraz Labs Mechanical Flashlights (formerly QTC Non-Battery Crush)

    Welcome to the fold. I have both the aluminum and stainless versions of the QT-L and they immediately won me over with their unique character and incredibly solid build. Simply unlike anything else out there. Truly one of a kind design and an absolute joy to use. I love the fact that there's no...

    Kyocera lep emitter

    FYI. The Kyocera SMD LEP package was groundbreaking at its release but is at least four years old by now. It's strictly limited in output and unfortunately wasn't adopted into major automakers headlight design. Only a few aftermarket auxiliary light manufacturers. The preeminent manufacturer...

    Vapcell 18650 - nice touch

    That's really worthwhile. Where did you order them from that they supply those cases? The silicone sleeves are a GREAT idea for conveniently carrying spares.

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

    ZIRCONIUM ZIRCONIUM ZIRCONIUM I've finally had a longstanding wish granted and was able to procure a zirconium flashlight. Reylight recently released a limited number of LANapple models in both zirconium and a really stunning timascus. Both can be found only on the Reylight website. They have...

    100 Watt Maglite Parts List

    I gotta say your post put a huge smile of nostalgia on my face. When hot wire Mag Mods were all the rage when I got into this hobby 20 years ago. You've found a sweet spot with the 100W Osram bulbs and I applaud your ingenuity of using PWM as a dimmer even though the external module is a bit...

    Brightest Spotlight?

To me the strongest element of the X75's performance is the ability to sustain high lumen output continuously for extended periods without stepping down output like the majority of lumen monster designs. Nothing else comes quite close. Unfortunately...
