    Red Light

    Thanks for the leads, guys. I'll conduct some research and see what piques his interest.

    Red Light

    A friend called me this morning looking for a curious recommendation. He wanted a sub $30 flashlight that has a red light as well. Having just woken up, all I could think of was a D25LC2 Color. However, three times his preferred price was too steep. I told him I'd think on it and get back to...

    MBI #4 - Get Ready to meet Zeus™

    Climber, I haven't tried out either of those. I've only had two different PD30 holsters, a Thrunite Scorpion V2, a D25LC2, and a couple others probably. The first PD30 holster (from a few years back) is the best of them. Guy, happy to offer feedback as I consider this an accessory most...

    MBI #4 - Get Ready to meet Zeus™

    Lurker here. Sounds like Zeus will be great. I appreciate excellent design and craftsmanship that displays an understanding of the target audience. A question just occurred to me though: Will Zeus come with a holster? I prefer holsters to clips, but rarely see well designed, durable holsters...

    AV/Photo lamp build

    I've had an AV/photo lamp bulb sitting around for a while. It's one of the ones for a projector like you used to use in middle school for transparencies. It is rated 120V/600W and I don't want to throw it out because it's expensive (but acquired for free) and cool. It's about an inch and a half...

    New JETBeam models, PA10, PA20, PC10, PC20

    Because I'm an impatient child, does anyone have a PC-10 yet that can post some beamshot comparisons (different levels and different lights)?

    You guys will be the death of me... I can't wait for my PC-10 though.

    Basic light MT

    Thanks for the feedback. The Wave and Spirit looked like the two best options to start with and the Wave was cheaper. Figure I can use that to determine what, if anything else, I should look for in a multitool. Also got a Schrade pry tool. I'm looking forward to both.

    Basic light MT

    I'm in the market for a MT but as it will be my first one, I am rather uncertain what I should get.:thinking: The problem is all these options. With MT's you first need to figure out WHAT you even want, accessory-wise, before you can even start comparing. I currently EDC a Benchmade Pardue 530...

    TK45 Extensive review (Beamshots from 3 exclusive locations!)

    Ah, damn shame. Nonetheless, I look forward to seeing these lights matched up against one another in such different areas.

    Family lights

    I had glanced at the Xeno while reading through random reviews but couldn't remember the name. This is pretty much what I had in mind. The only problem is that it's a bit small, which I could foresee being an issue with it getting lost or what have you. Is there anything that's essentially this...

    Family lights

    I agree that an 18650 isn't what I'm looking for since you have to be careful with them and my family could use a little more 'savvy' with their tech. CR123's aren't bad though because I use them anyway for my lights so I could easily maintain a constant household supply. Those guidelines...

    Family lights

    So my family has a godless number of crappy plastic flashlights lying around and they're largely worthless. I was thinking I might take this opportunity to ease them into the world of premium lighting. What would a good light be? I figure I need something bright, floody with lots of spill, drop...

    18650's for Scorpion 2

    I just bought a Scorpion 2 this morning and now I'm patiently waiting until Thursday to enjoy it. I've got CR123a's lying around that I'll throw in right away, but I'd like some 18650's for long-term saving/convenience. Right now I'm looking at AW 18650's at 2400 mAh but I'm unsure on the...

    TK45 Extensive review (Beamshots from 3 exclusive locations!)

    Hey cataract, would you be able to get some more beamshots from the sun and moon towers with other lights? I'd like to see how well others stack up, just for fun. Also, could you do a side-by-side for headlight comparisons as well? I don't suppose you have a Scorpion 2? Just ordered mine, but...
