    Question regarding Side-switch durability?

    Hi Matt, sorry to hear about your Lumintop malfunction. I can only comment on my experience with side switch lights, but I have purchased about 45 lights with side switches. Only 1 had to be sent in for repair because of switch malfunctioning. That seems to be pretty good reliability. The...

    Olight SR52 replacements? Smaller, brighter, longer runtime?

    I have the SR52 and the SR52ut, I like them both. But when it comes to bringing a thrower on a dog walk, I usually take the Manker U21. It has a similar beam to the Olight but is lighter because of the 26650 battery. I agree with BarryNYC the Nitecore Mh20 and MH20gt are good options They...

    Longest Throw Flashlight

    runnikee the Olight repair center is located in Going Gear's building in Smyrna Georgia. Maybe calling Going Gear can help you contact Olght for service. If you want better throw than your M3x check out the OLight SR52ut, it has great throw in a compact light.

    XHP50 vs XHP35 plus diffuse filter

    Hi Chad, my experience with those 2 leds is the xhp50 has a bigger hotspot and brighter spill than the xhp35. So I don't feel the need to diffuse the beam, but the xhp35 isn't the best choice for close up lighting. Any diffusion filter will make the beam better for up close lighting at the...

    olight s1 baton lockout - slightly unscrewing the tailcap question

    No, the S1 should not work at all, if it is the standard aluminum version. The titanium, copper, brass versions might not lock out with tail cap loosened.

    Are there any LED lights that take 18650 FLAT TOPS?

    My Olight S2 baton takes flat top 18650 cells, and can be bought for $50 or less with a discount or sale price.

    Review: Manker E11: EDC-light, XP-L, 800 lumens, AA/14500; (beam)shots, compare

    The Manker E12 is a 2AA light that is similar to the E11. I really like the E11, I ordered the neutral white but I think it is actually a warm white.

    Flashlight doesn't fit 18650

    You might want to check 16650 battery, I have read that they can be used in lights that take 2 cr123 cells. I have never used that size myself so I don't know if it will work in your light.

    The one and only NITECORE MH41 review in English!

    Good first post welcome to CPF. The indoor part of review was good, the beamshots were a little fuzzy, maybe mount the camera on a tripod if long shutter speeds are used. Thanks for reviewing the MH41, I was curious to see how it performs.

    Manker T01 Ⅱ is releasing

    My T01 ii always comes on in lowest mode with a short click. A long click will go to last used level, I like that user can choose simply with short or long click.

    What batteries for manker e11

    Welcome to CPF atvout, I have the Manker E11 and the T01 that both have short battery tubes. I found that Windyfire 14500 imr cells will fit. The Windyfire cells are unprotected so you will have to make sure not to run the voltage too low. The only source in the U.S. I know of is Mountain...

    *new* Acebeam K70: max. 2600 lumens, 1300 meters throw

    Welcome amf14, I just did a quick search and your K70 box looks slightly different than other boxes. My K70 box looks like the images I found, I would think that yours must be newer than the others. I got the K70 at the end of August 2016, and some of the images on the internet were taken...

    Nitecore EA81 (XHP50, 8xAA) Review: RUNTIME, BEAMSHOTS, VIDEO and more

    I got the EA81 NW about 2 weeks ago, I held off for a long time because of the donut hole. I have been using the Jetbeam BC40 GT with the same XHP 50 led all winter, and the beam is just fine, even with a donut hole. I like the EA81 because it has good throw with a large hotspot. I also have...

    What is a good light with PWM?

    The Nitecore EC11 has pwm in all modes except turbo with 18350 cell. I would think that the AA version, the EA11 would be the same. The Inova XP AAA penlight has pwm in low mode
