    Thrunite TN42

    I just pre-ordered the TN42 as it was more than I could resist. Wondering if I'll be able to tweak it a bit? I've built a Convoy L2 with led4power LD-2 driver modified to run the 12V XHP-35 and saw 3.13A draw with 2987 lumens, the reflector is considerably smaller than this one and as such...

    NEW MecArmy PT16 3 X CREE XP-G2 single 16340 flashlight 1000 lumens

    Interesting. I came in here following up on reviews on this little light. Don't get into CPF often anymore and it's pretty quickly easy to see why. I'll get one, pull the OEM driver or wipe it clean and piggyback a 10mm FET in with 7 modes (maybe 5, we'll see, I'll write it how I want it to be...

    I need your help CPF! Love to get your feedback on my Titanium Carbon Fiber Light

    We've grown accustomed to throwing in honest feedback, there's a lot of back and forth on opinions and what makes or breaks a light in BLF, so that's what you saw... no intentional flaming just honest feedback. Honestly though, going to the length to get a nice copper pill for heat dispersion it...

    MBI #3 - Codename: HF

    Hope you're well rested by now, and chomping at the bit to get back to work! :) Question... I now have the ability to build a single sided 10mm driver and flash the mmu pretty much however I see fit. Do you think I could cram one of these into the Cu Nichia on my keychain and give it some...

    BLF Manker A6 – Custom tube light designed by BLF – Cree XP-L in three tints, 1x18650

    Please make note that the driver Wight designed is an FET+1 set-up, this uses the MOSFET for direct drive in the high modes, as you said, but it also uses a single 7135 350mA chip to run the lower modes. This is key because of the fact that PWM is using only 350mA instead of the full 5A+ the...

    Do you always carry a flashlight or only at night?

    Every day, all the time. I've been wearing my Texas Poker by Photon Fanatic for 2 years on a Ti curb chain. The tiny little 10440 light is now capable of over 1000 lumens out the front. With 7 modes and a reversing interface that steps into a hidden loop for strobe and battery check, it's a very...

    MBI #4 - Get Ready to meet Zeus™

    Passion rules. Sex and money are secondary, the results of passion in many cases, but when the mind works diligently on what the heart is passionate about then truly good things happen. :) Take flashaholism for example, I've even learned to make Kydex holsters lately so I can carry the little...

    Sold/Expired B@rt's Tritium thread

    Hey Bart, you show a 4x20 in Ice blue and 2x8 also in Ice Blue, do you have those in stock? Interested in one 4x20 and two 2x8. I don't guess there'd be a 2x20 or 4x8 available huh? Is there anything in a rectangle? Semi large?

    Re: Sinner Customs - Tri-EDC's and more. Hey Sinner, I got my little Ti Tri-EDC 18350 and it's a beaut! :) Going for a bit more run time, I loaded it up with 3 XP-G2's with a mixed tint for a pure white output. I used a 1A, 2B and 3C and it works beautifully! Pulling 5.73A at the tail from the...
