    Flood Lens

    I have an M60F. Currently in my Valiant Concepts 2xAA Twisty (only because my M30W seems to have burned out). Not very bright with eneloops (need more voltage). Don't really like it much. It still has a bit of a hot spot, but worse it has a star shaped flood. Personally I think the diffuser...

    Valiant Concepts 2xAA Twisty ~ oldie but a very goodie

    I got a Malkoff Valiant Little Twisty 2xAA and a M31W back in 2011. The M31W led module quit working a couple years ago, not sure why. I packed it away (along with a few other flashlights) when I moved. I had two flashlights that I used, left the rest packed away. But one of the two also quit...

    I have one of these. But the LED module for it no longer works....

    85 CRI Peaks

    Are all the high CRI Eigers only with narrow optic?

    Which smaller light running on A or AA has the biggest WOW factor?

    The Peak Vesusvius is only recommended for people that know their way around high end flashlights and the heat problems that come with such. And yes it would likely overheat after 4-5 minutes on high. But with the built-in QTC, it has variable output (yet another WOW factor). So when it...

    Which smaller light running on A or AA has the biggest WOW factor?

    Well, for tiny and bright there is not much that can compare with the Peak Vesuvius. XM-L led that runs with up to 1.9 amps with an IMR 10440 battery. It's small size makes it almost pure flood, but it sure fits the bill for small and BRIGHT! See the link in my previous post for thread with...

    The WOW factor new light

    I've run mine on high several times with no problem. As long as you watch heat it shouldn't be a problem.

    The WOW factor new light

    Strange, cause this picture shows the body being a fairly close match to the head in color. With mine, the body is quite gray. More so even than the picture here: http://www.em-mgt.com/LED/Vesuvius.html

    The WOW factor new light

    Got mine today. I purchase two (1 brass, 1 HA). Before I say anything else I should say that I am fairly new to led flashlights. These are my first Peaks, my first XML, and my first brass... Fist impressions, the light is bit bigger (longer) than I expected (even though I was expecting it to...

    85 CRI Peaks

    Yes, but last I check there were still no pocket style Eigers with QTC. The other Eigers are just too long for an AAA light.

    Using Lithium Rechargeables - Info?

    Yes, I figured the 86 degrees F was from the Battery University. I should point out that 86 degrees F is 30 degrees C, which is the point they say that the battery life STARTS degrading as the temps increase. Still nothing to worry about as it is just the starting point. About the only time...

    IMR 10440

    I think the maxium charge rate for IMR is 3C. These IMR10440d are rated at 350 mAh, but that may be a bit high. So personally I would limit it to like 2C which is 700 mAh. I have charged some IMR 10440 in my Pila which is 600 mAh for the cc part. The batteries did get warm, but nothing...

    85 CRI Peaks

    Was about to complain that there were only cool QTC lites, and then I see this. What I have been waiting for is a POCKET style Eiger in either neutral or warm (prefer neutral...) with wide flood mode...??? High CRI is even better! Any chance of pocket style Eiger with QTC using one of these...?
