    Where did all the oldtimers go.

    So good to see you back! Will you be posting the reviews on your old youtube channel?

    Emitter swap and output differences using same stock driver?

    Thank you! I’m hoping that with a newer emitter improved efficiency I wouldn’t lose much output despite the lower output of the warmer tint. I still see a lot of people recommending the 219B, but it’s a much older emitter and thus less efficient compared to the 219C and they talk about the...

    Emitter swap and output differences using same stock driver?

    Emitter swap and output differences using same stock driver? I have an old Nitecore MT2C which has an XP-G R5 emitter that I would like to swap for a high CRI emitter with a cct between 3500-4000k, probably SST20 or Nichia 219C, or even LH351D (if it can fit the opening in the reflector). Now...

    Nitecore Mt2C changing mod by hitting the tailcap.

    I’m sorry I know this is an old thread but were you able to get your mt2c fixed? I have been having the same problem with mine.

    Need help diagnosing Nitecore D11 problem.

    I tried this but that didn't help, so I just made it direct drive at least that way I have a functioning light, the only problem is (apart from not being able to change brightness level) is that runtimes on my 14500 battery is atrocious, I get maybe ~5min and the battery dies, but I never run...

    Cool, I like that idea, I'll try it tomorrow. Thank you.

    Need help diagnosing Nitecore D11 problem.

    I did think about sending the light out for repair but I'm in Brazil for the next couple of months and just shipping the light out for repair would end up being considerably more expensive than buying a new light. I'm gonna open it up for another look and if it doesn't work I'm gonna modify it...

    Need help diagnosing Nitecore D11 problem.

    Re-soldered the components but it did not make any difference... :( So is there any way I could mod the circuit to make this work again? I know I could probably just re-wire it to bypass the driver and have the LED be driven directly by the battery and use it as a twisty to turn it on/off but I...

    Thank you, I'll look into that and re-solder all the components.

    Need help diagnosing Nitecore D11 problem.

    The brass contact ring was the first thing I checked and it is fine... :(

    Need help diagnosing Nitecore D11 problem.

    I accidentally dropped my D11 from a height of about 70-75cm head first into the tile floor and since then the light won't work properly. When I screw the head in the light comes on at minimum level and when I press the switch to turn it on/off the light will go to the highest level but as soon...

    Olight S30 Baton review (1000 lm,XM-L2,18650/2xRCR123A)

    Gear Best had them for around U$22 on black friday and I missed it, now it's up to U$38. If I could find it for U$25 Im buying it.

    Sunwayman C20C (XM-L, 1x18650/2xCR123A) Review: RUNTIMES, VIDEO, BEAMSHOTS and more!

    The problem with mine wasn't the tailcap, that was the first thing checked. Battery performance was excellent using a Orbtronic 3100mAh battery. Despite it's flaws I loved this light and I really wish it hadn't died, that's why I'm considering the Sunwayman G25C.

    Sunwayman C20C (XM-L, 1x18650/2xCR123A) Review: RUNTIMES, VIDEO, BEAMSHOTS and more!

    I just realized I never updated this. I got the C20C replaced, and the new one also died the same way, I think it had something to do with the switch. I really loved this light despite it's flaws but I ended up getting it exchanged for a Nitecore MT2C. All my Nitecore lights have been very...
