    BLF/TLF FW3A - now available

    I just received my order of two FW3As. Here's a picture of an FW3A (right) next to my modded Emisar D4 (left): The FW3A is a compact single 18650 EDC light. This was a project made by Lumintop with assistance from members of BLF and TLF. It uses a standard 20mm Carclo triple-TIR optic and...

    Imalent MS18 and Emisar D18

    I've always thought of CPF as the place to go to to look for info about big flashy lights with tremendous output that push the envelope. That said, I'm a bit surprised that here on CPF there has been nothing at all regarding exciting upcoming lights. The lights in question are the following...

    Imalent MS12 - fan cooled 53k lumens

    Fireflies ROT66

    Anyone have thoughts on the Fireflies ROT66? There's a big thread on the other flashlight forum about it. Looks pretty nice. Here's the manufacturer description: Product Description: 9x CREE XPL High Intensity Emitters / 9x Nichia 219B SW45K R9080 High CRI Emitters Made of 7075...

    Modded pocket zoomies

    I love modding pocket zoom lights. Here are my most recently modded ones: These are both modded Aleto N8 budget lights. The stock Aleto N8 is the smallest 18650 zoomie ever marketed at 107mm x 24mm. This wasn't small enough for me, so I modded it. Version 1: - Aleto N8 with metal button...

    Nichia 219C

    Just read a detailed review Djozz wrote on the other flashlight forum reviewing the 83 CRI Nichia 219C LED. The review included sample output results at different currents. Supposedly the 90+ CRI version will have similar performance but isn't out yet. The results were quite impressive...

    Modding the DQG 18650 Tiny III into a Triple

    Awhile back I purchased a DQG 18650 Tiny III clicky. This light has some impressive features. It's the smallest 18650 light on the market. It has a very clever self-adjusting battery compartment with no springs. Instead the whole compartment changes length to accomodate different sized...

    Noctigon Meteor M43

    Just saw some pictures of the Noctigon Meteor M43 flashlight prototype which is scheduled to release at the end of March. Looks to be the first flashlight manufactured by Noctigon. Noctigon is well known among flashlight modders as a maker of direct copper LED stars. No info on runtime...

    Coast HP1

    I recently came across the Coast HP1. It's $10 at Amazon, so is well within the price range for typical budget lights like the SK68. Here's a picture of mine after I modded it. The unmodded light looks largely the same but is slightly longer and has a longer tailcap. I was intrigued with...

    What's with the lack of small clicky single battery EDC lights with a clip?

    It depends what you want to carry. If you're wearing dress slacks a "small" 18650 is pretty huge. Far too large for pocket carry. There aren't a whole lot of quality small AA clicky lights. Jetbeam PA01 is one. But its output and UI leave a lot to be desired and it can overheat, probably...
