    Anyone still using "old" led technology?

    Just wondering how many of us are still using older led technology? Me? I'm still using a couple of MM Lite WO 1W HD RY0J sandwiches from The Sandwich Shoppe (dat2zip). One in a 2xAA minimag and one in a 1xAA cut down minimag, both with NX05 optics and TerraLUX TCS-1 clicky swicthes. Anyhow...

    Solarforce L2 stock switch, WTF is going on here? I think Im missing a part!

    When you unscrew the tailcap and look in, is there a silver looking ring (looks like a washer almost) with two small holes on opposite sides of it? Here are a couple of pictures: http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showpost.php?p=3465513&postcount=100...

    Multi Modes Can Be Fun, BUT How Important?

    The nice thing about multi-modes (with memory) is that you can use it like a single mode and never use all the modes, but have options if needed.

    Paralysis through analysis - Help?

    I just get caught up in what I think is over analyzing this stuff. It really isn't as complicated as I make it. So, since I'm stuck, I figured I'd ask those who are less encumbered than myself. LOL! Thanks for the input, it really does help.

    Paralysis through analysis - Help?

    I'm trying to find a budget (under $20.00 if possible) P60 drop-in to run on 2xcr123 primaries. I have been reading for the past two days and am just kind of lost. You got your single mode, 3 mode, 5 mode, P4's, R2's, R5's. I'm lost I tell ya, just lost. For 2xcr123 primaries, what voltages...

    How much light do you need for EDC?

    Most of the time, not very much. Frankly, my eyeballs don't care much if it's Luxeon, Cree, newest, best or whatever. Give me enough light to see what I need to do. Be relatively durable and reliable. Not use up batteries too quickly and we're good to go. Our most used lights are (though we...

    Soldiers Without Knives Going to Iraq

    Yes, thank you BB for making that statement. Let's not rant about about politics even though it's hard not to. It's simple, help if you can by sending an extra knife or multi-tool to Peter. I contacted Peter as I don't have spare stuff like that, but do have some money from some over-time I put...

    I'm going back to Mag for my worklight..

    Don't blame you Pydpiper. I "downgraded" my Mag85 to the 3 cell Mag LED, though I kept the aluminum MOP reflector and borofloat lens and couldn't be happier.

    I have a few Streamlight Twin Tasks that take two 123 lithiums, got them for everyone in my family and both vehicles several years back. Has 3 leds and one xenon, the leds are a little on the purple/blueish side and the xenon is white. The led's work nicely for getting around and close up work...

    Fenix E0, anyone else disappointed

    I don't mind my E0, it does what I need it to which is mainly finding keyholes. But it's not limited to just that. For me, it puts out acceptable light levels for small lighting requirements. I also like not having to keep track in the back of my already cluttered and small capacity brain how...
