    Any suggestions for compact 18650 lanterns

    I received the two lamps I ordered today. Delivery was amazingly fast for Ali Express. Here are my first impressions. I ordered two of these. The first one I tried worked flawlessly, but the second one was dead on arrival. No light. It didn't want to charge either, it wouldn't even turn on...

    Any suggestions for compact 18650 lanterns

    I want to buy two small lanterns with one or two replaceable 18650 batteries. I'm looking for suggestions. I'm trying to stay with 18500 batteries for logistic reasons since I also want to buy a Wurkos HD15 headlamp. Any feedback on the Wurkos is also welcome as well as suggestion for another...

    New cyclist looking for a budget friendly front and rear light

    I bought the first light a couple of years ago from Ali Express and I'm quite happy with it. At full charge, it lasts at least an hour on high which is remarkable for such a small light. The only thing I don't like is that the battery is not replaceable.

    Lupine Rotlicht LED Rear Light - 160 vs 40 Lm

    Think about lighthouse lamps. Their beam can be seen kilometers away, all shaped with lenses.

    Zebralight H600F Headlamp replacement lens?

    Could Zebra Lights send you a new head ? It shouldn't be much more expensive than the lens and repair time and it would be muh faster to do it that way than sending the part back and forth.

    Using a COB LED panel: experiences

    I would guess that you only use your folding camper occasionally, so your light will probably last for twenty years (worst case scenario) and 100 years or more (best case). ;)

    14500 LiFePO4 battery

    Two AA give 3 volts , LiFePO4 has a nominal voltage of 3.2 volts. When I bought my lights, Fenix was offering a kit (that is what I actually got) which included, a diffuser, the L2D and the tube of the L1D, so yes, the L2D and the L1D both use the same head. Thanks the HKJ reference, I'll check...

    14500 LiFePO4 battery

    According to Fenix, the L1D shouldn't be used with a 3.2 volt LiFePo4 battery. I find this curious since the L1D uses the same head as the L2D that works with 2 AA batteries. What is the highest capacity 14500 LiFePo4 battery currently available ?

    Jetbeam Jet-μ (XP-G2 S2, 1xAAA) & Jet-1 MK (XP-G2 S2, 1xAA) Review

    Great review. It is unfortunate that the clip isn't reversible and that 10440 aren't supported. Next version maybe. ;):thumbsup:
