    Update surefire L1

    I just received an E-Series KL4 Head Unit (Gen 7), 1 Mode (3.7V-9V) from Lumens Factory for my LX2 Lumamax, which according to the description is also compatible with L2 and L4. Mounted on my LX2 Lumamax, the Lumens Factory head works flawlessly at both brightness levels via the "gas pedal"...

    SkyRC — IFA 2014 — MC3000 charger-analyzer

    I agree. The main reason for the new version seems to have been to cut down production costs. They should have called the new version MC2900 instead in my oppinion. If I were to buy a second charger, it would be another MC3000.

    SkyRC MC3000 alternative? Gyrfalcon S8000

    Thanks for making us aware of this new advanced charger (y) The charger looks very interesting, and looks to be the first to really challenge the SKYrcr mc3000. But I hate the fact it has capacitive touch buttons, which I unfortunately have very bad experiences with. Often it is necessary to...

    Need recommendation for 1.5v rechargeable AA's

    Hi guiri Unfortunately a few poorly designed devices only works at a higher voltage than nimh batteries can provide, so you may be right in your assumption that it is the slightly lower nominal voltage from nimh batteries that causes the problems. But since there are relatively few devices that...

    No leak primaries?

    Speaking of leaking alkalines. David L. Jones from EEVblog, to day found out the hard way that Energizer's AA alkalines leaks as well. They have completely destroyed his fluke multimeter. The battery acid has eaten the yellow plastic, and has worked all its way down to the circuit board, and...

    No leak primaries?

    When I talk about leakage, I mean out of the outer shell, not inside the battery itself. I think it is this double layer that makes them so resistant to leakage, (at least in my experience). But I know they can leak, even out of the outer shell, but honestly I really can't remember that ever has...

    No leak primaries?

    Funny how we have different experiences of alkaline manufacturers. lately my experiences with leaky cells have been mostly from duracell. Approx. half a year ago I found a pack of four triple A duracell batteries in my drawer which had leaked. They were still in their blister pack. I can't...

    Seeking handheld flashlight with a tailcap switch with momentary on only (press & Hold)

    A little follow-up. I have just ordered two more flashlights for my collection. It was not an easy choice, because there were so many good recommendations to choose from. But after some additional research and thinking time, the choice fell on an Elzetta Bravo and a HDS tactical rotary, which is...

    Seeking handheld flashlight with a tailcap switch with momentary on only (press & Hold)

    It is a very interesting flashlight. In fact, I have already looked into it and find it very interesting. But I didn't realize the tail cap switch had a gas pedal function much like my surefires. Many thanks for that information.

    Seeking handheld flashlight with a tailcap switch with momentary on only (press & Hold)

    I am willing to spend a lot. As I understand, McGizmo unfortunately no longer makes flashlights with this feature, and I'm mostly to new flashlights, but I'll certainly look into HDS.

    Seeking handheld flashlight with a tailcap switch with momentary on only (press & Hold)

    @kerneldrop I have a job function where I use a flashlight approx. 30-50 times during a working day, but only for a second at a time, maybe even less than a second. I only have one hand free to take the fashlight out of my pocket and operate it. In addition, my job function also involves a lot...

    Seeking handheld flashlight with a tailcap switch with momentary on only (press & Hold)

    Thank you all. I think you all have come up with some really good suggestions, and has given me something to think about. Over the weekend I expect to make a decision about which new work light I want to buy.

    Seeking handheld flashlight with a tailcap switch with momentary on only (press & Hold)

    Yes, I see they sell a separate tail cap switch with momentary only function, very interesting. I will look into that as well. Many thanks.

    Seeking handheld flashlight with a tailcap switch with momentary on only (press & Hold)

    Those seem like two really good suggestions, that are just what I'm looking for. I am a little embarrassed to admit, I had already looked at Elzeta, but mistakenly concluded they all had strobe function. But this suggestion made me once again go to their website to see if there was something I...

    Seeking handheld flashlight with a tailcap switch with momentary on only (press & Hold)

    I'm looking for a flashlight (other than Surefire) with a tailcap switch with momentary on only, meaning the flashlight turns on when the tailcap is pressed and held, and turns off when released. It must not be able to be clicked permanently on, as I walk around with it in my pocket, and do not...

    Overview: All eneloop batteries; 2005-2025

    Great to see they are still able to improve them. Provided the batteries in the video approximately had the same state of charge, the weight difference seems compared to previous generations to be quite noticeable in my opinion, very interesting to observe. Also Interesting to see if Fujitsu in...
