    Zebralight Custom Mode Groups—How Did You Set Yours Up?

    This was very good inspiration for choosing the levels for my H53Fc. What I did was set the lowest available lumen as the value for 1 and the highest available lumen as the value for 6. Then I made a straight line in a log4 scale between the two points, and chose the levels closest to the line...

    1x 18650 no mode tiny flashlight

    Exactly, dependent on how much power you want in the light. You could choose the one with 8 pcs. 7135's, and if you find it to make the light too bright you can always solder the 7135 chips of one at a time until you reach a desirable light level.

    UV - comparing 395 nm to 365 nm

    I think it depends a lot on what you are using it for.

I have just received my AceBeam X80 today, which has a Nichia 365nm in it, so I...

    High continuous lumen flooder

    Hi all, I am a long time lurker, but first time poster seeking an addition to my flashlight collection. What I am after is a high lumen flooder that can deliver 4000'ish or more lumen for an hour or more with no thermal stepdown. So far I have been looking at: Acebeam X80 Thrunite TN36 2017...
