    Real benefits of dedoming?

    I'm buying stock. Right now the 'budget' in budget light sounds good... :)

    Real benefits of dedoming?

    Yeah it looks like a great stock light and that option is certainly still #1 on the table. Beam shots look good. Thanks

    Real benefits of dedoming?

    Thanks, good to know. Any opinion on the 5000k & the 6500k tints dedomed? Would the neutral end up being too yellowish? I'm obviously still learning here

    Real benefits of dedoming?

    The Thorfire S70 is the other price light I'm looking at but what I like about the L6 is no stepdown from turbo and an easy-to-ignore strobe mode.

    Real benefits of dedoming?

    For me 100m is enough of a difference to warrant modding, any more so much the better. Our dogs run the property perimeter every evening to ward off the coywolves that populate the area. Sometimes the dogs get selective deafness and don't respond to my calling. Your input is much appreciated...

    Thanks, great info. Not to put you on the spot (pun intended) but throw (pun also intended) an estimate at me. 550 meter throw will become at least ? and at most ?

    Real benefits of dedoming?

    I am going to buy a Convoy L6. I can buy stock or modded from Adventure Sport Flashlights. Stock price is $64--Dedomed add $35. So with that mod my 'budget light' is now $99. Specs say stock is max 3800 lumens w/550 meter throw. Nice light as is. It uses a Cree XHP70. Does anyone have any real...

    ThorFire VG10 Tactical Flashlight review

    Just for fun I got a VG10 from ebay ($23) with holster, quality lanyard, spare Os, charger & much to my surprise, a 3000mah Thorfire battery. Seems well built, lumens appear to me to be about as stated. I'm happy. Now just waiting for my Condor L6 and my Thorfire S70. Great reviews on both

    Looking for burning laser

    I just spent $35 on ebay for a blue laser. Came in a case with 2 batteries, charger & 'safety glasses'. 1st thing I did to try it was point it at the dark gray foam pack in the case and it started to burn right away. Oops! Quality? Don't know yet. You've probably got some power when you see IF...

    Why the current obsession with Turbo Mode??

    'Well drain my battery and call me powerless!'--If you want a high lumen turbo without step down get a Convoy L6. Don't burn your hand...

    Review: Convoy L6 (XHP-70, 2x26650)

    My Nitecore TM16 has gotten me hooked on big throwers. But budget speaks and I'm torn between the L6 and the Thorfire S70. If anyone has or has had both I'd appreciate any input.
