    The Malkoff Front Porch

    Don McCleish of McGizmo had a great essay on the attributes of titanium in lights here on this forum years ago. Don’t know if it’s still in the archive somewhere.

    Malkoff MDC AA using 2.4vdc battery

    No problems with the odd Olight 2.4v 14500. Have used 3 in rotation and enjoy the C charging capability when I don’t want to carry extra charging gear. Experimented in a variety of voltage ranges but mostly used with Malkoff AA lights and an old M30 in a VME head. In that set up the 1.2, 1.5...

    Your thoughts on Malkoff MDC AA

    Weird Olight 2.4v c charging battery is useful for Malkoff aa lights as well as M31 drop ins. Gene said it was safe and it bumps moonlight mode to about 1 lumen. Have an xpg, xpg2, and sst20 aa mdc and the moonlight modes are all different. Choosing 1.2, 1.5, 2.4 v batteries lets you adjust it a...

    Chili -- got a go-to spice/herb blend for your favorite Chili recipe?

    Unsweetened cocoa powder or even dark/bittersweet chocolate is a great addition and gives it a mole(Mexican sauces)color and flavor. You don’t need a lot.

    M31 Body/Battery Options

    M31 works great with a variety of different outputs with 1.2v and 1.5v AA’s and Olight’s weird 2.4v 14500 battery.

    Classic Movies - B&W only :-)

    "King Rat"is a classic POW movie based on a James Clavell novel. Others mentioned "Seven Samurai" and "Yojimbo" by Kurosawa, but a lesser known film by him is "The Hidden Fortress" which "Star Wars" is based on.

    Recommend me a single AA flashlight

    Acebeam model which comes with 14500 battery runs on AA’s, is a forward clicky, and uses a 519a led. And it’s cheap.

    The Malkoff Front Porch

    E1 hyper throw & E1 Scout made for cr123 will both operate at lower output on a single AA.

    Malkoff M31W

    I run single Eneloop(1.2v) in M31w and output is similar to medium mode on Malkoff’s 3mode li-ion MDC Neutral head, so I’m guessing around 50 lumens. Very useful beam, similar to M61LLLL. Can up lumens a bit with 1.5v aa and get full output with Olight’s weird 2.4v 14500 battery which I also use...

    *FOUND* Looking for a couple of "Hardpress boots" for my 6P Surefires

    As far as I know, Oveready never had hard press boots. Rather they had medium press with an oring inside to make it hard press. Easy to replicate. I took mine out.

    I lived my entire life without debt

    Basic Econ 101 is that debt is the basis of Capitalism. Bonds, Stocks, and paper money are all debt instruments. If you don’t understand this or believe in it, you are living in the wrong time and place. If you don’t know how to use these instruments to your advantage, you will be excluded from...

    Flip flops

    Scott have been my favorite for years, and I still use them, but older feet and joints love the Oofos around the house or any stretch of time on concrete.

    Malkoff Picture Thread

    You can make your soft boot y harder by adding an oring to the end of it. That’s all Oveready does as well.

    M60’s work at 4.2v but really work best-full output-at 6v+.
