    Ultratac K18 (XP-G2 S2, 1xAAA/10440, side switch) flashlight review: RUNTIMES+

    Well, I never thought about that! My regular AAA lights don't produce enough heat for that. I presume you are using a 10440? What other single AAA lights can safely handle a 10440?

    Throw king : SR90 or Fenix TK70?

    The problem with videos is that they involve too many "automatic" adjustments like color balance and exposure. Accurate tests require professional grade still cameras with full manual control for ISO, shutter speed, lens opening, color balance.

    Fenix TK70 with measurements and outdoor beamshots

    I live out in the boonies where I often take my 90-pound dog out for a midnight walk. The place is infested with deer which often make my dog go nuts and difficult to control. There are also the odd bear, foxes, and other critters. I like to spot them before my dog sees them so I can change...

    How did you do that? Did you just dremmel out the GITD coating? Beam shot for the High setting please.

    I'm in the same position. I want to buy them as gifts but they won't be going to techie people so they gotta work flawlessly right out of the box. Hopefully by next Xmas;-)

    Foursevens Preon P0

    The more I use my P0 the more I appreciate the flood coverage. When looking for something in the car, in the drunk, under the desk to find a tiny screw that rolled off the table, etc., the flood allows me to find everything right away. With my other lights I have to scan all over the place...

    I can't speak for the manufacturer but I think you would have to add one mode to the light so it would have Very Low, Medium and High, with a maximum output of about 70 lumens. This is certainly possible if you look at the other AAA lights on the market, e.g., ITP A3, etc. As it is, quality...

    Yes. Age has a lot to do with it. We need more light as we get older. It would be interesting to know the average age of CPF subscribers:) Also, color perception is a very complicated matter.

    Foursevens Preon P0

    Quality control has been a huge issue with this light. The first batch is sold out and it seems that this thread has had half a million hits. This is a clear indication that there is a huge demand for this kind of light. Let's hope the other manufacturers (we're looking at you ITP, Olight...

    That's good news. By now they are aware of the issues. Let's hope the second batch will be better.

    Got mine today. PROS: Tiny size Nothing wrong with the tint. Works fine with Energizer Ultimate Lithium (1.5 V, non-rechargeable). Low setting good enough for walking around a dark house, (like turning on your smartphone) and in fact good enough to read a book when the light is about 5 inches...
