    Old timers.. what are you down to in the flashlight department?

    Hey @mcm308 Long time no see! I also have a cherished Olight M30 Triton that rides in my vehicle everyday.

    Novatac EDC 120 T

    Nope, single battery like yours. Pretty sure the one you posted is a 1-battery model.

    Novatac EDC 120 T

    Hey @Eddie P Love my Novatac, I run an ancient AW batt in mine too! Remember, when switching from a primary batt to a rechargeable, there's a "battery-detect-reset" you do so the light works best with the battery in it... https://www.ntsupply.com/files/products/Novatac-EDC-UserGuide.pdf From...

    Stuck MagLite D-Cell batteries

    from @alpg88 in another Mag rescue thread... "there are 2 types of switch screws, old type uses 5/64 allen key, another t8 torx, but it has to be a special one, with narrow shaft, 99.9% of torx keys out there will not work, you need to either file/grind it, or get one from maglite that fits...

    Keeppower Protection Circuit Issue

    This thread is killing me!!! You're killing me SMALLS! @md17 Does your light have the Malkoff hi-low ring in the head? If so, is it tight and clean? I will say, I had two 18500's in my Olight M30 at one point. I dropped it on the concrete and the protection circuit slammed shut on one of the...

    What watch you're wearing?

    My Momemtum M1 Pro is down right now, needs a new battery, so I fired up my trusty Timex Chrono. Bought in 2000 when I got my first real I.T. job (that I still have!) Currently on a Maratac Bond Nato strap.

    GG&G Strike Bezels

    When I got my M3, it had one already on there. I don't leave it on there all the time. It does throw off the balance and of course there's divot marks in the bezel from the set screws. They generated some buzz back in the day as the cool-guy flashlight accessory to have. There's a couple...

    I got a replacement switch for a 1980's old style D-cell on here from none other than Don Keller. Not sure if he still checks in here but it's worth a shot. You could post a WTB for an old C- size one.

    please point n00b to "old maglite" Xenon-to-LED conversion tips

    Love the old Maglites, great scores! Understanding it's mostly nostalgia as there are a slew of far better lights on the market, but there's ways to make these serviceable. As far as LED conversions, LumenCraft has a pretty good selection. The Firefly module that screws over where the bulb...

    What flashlight do you keep in your vehicle?

    I had an incan Magcharger at one point, just the light with no battery or charger. It was tempting to go that route, get that module and new batteries etc but it wasn't worth it. If one already had the whole kit, that module is a great upgrade though.

    What flashlight do you keep in your vehicle?

    Went out earlier this week with a coworker. Proudly checked out the Mag Charger he has mounted in the back of his F-150. It's an incan version that he picked up on sale and asked me how to improve the performance, so I recommended @vestureofblood's LumenCraft module for it. It's still running...
