    Tritium paint vs. Tritium filled vials

    The Traser and Luminox Navy Seal watches are one of the most commonly counterfeited watches in the world. Most folks who have had problems got one of the fakes from China. If you're not paying close to the price on the Luminox or Traser sites, then it's most likely a fake. It isn't necessary...

    Similar to Preon P01 with bigger battery - Must have full flood with no center spot

    Appreciate the suggestions, guys. Don't need that kind of power, do need common batteries and the exceedingly even flood of the P01. For those prices I can buy a half dozen P01s and a case of Duracells. Thanks for your efforts.

    Similar to Preon P01 with bigger battery - Must have full flood with no center spot

    I'm in love with my P01s. They're perfect for area lighting. If they made them with an AA battery and about 1 lumen/100 hrs. and 20-25 lumens/8 hrs. I'd snap up several. I'm assuming such a light would be in the Mini MA price range, or about $30-40 US. Magnetic base optional, but nice. Does...

    Why No 1 X AAA With Moon Mode

    foursevens.com's Preon PO is .25 lumens low, 25 high. Flood beam. Tiny, too= 2.2 x 0.5 in. Has magnet in base. $25 in stainless steel. It even has luminescent material where the reflector would be, so you can find it in the dark. 120 hrs on low, 2 hrs on high. Just got mine, and very...

    Can you totally discharge Eneloops AA's?

    I use Eneloops exclusively in high-powered strobe and all my AAA and AA lights. The trick is simply to charge them when you've used them for a while. If you have to kill them, you have to. Otherwise it's like voting in Chicago: charge early and often. Mine are two years old now, and still...

    Top 3 AAA lights for keychain carry

    I received an LD01 Stainless as a Christmas gift from a friend who's a dealer, last year. I carried it for a year and loved it, but it was too heavy for an AAA light, and the low setting was too high. I'm now carrying an ITP A1 EOS in preference even to the Olight AAA Titanium (ITP A3 EOS)...

    P3D What mean Waterproof to IPX-8 Standard ?

    IPX-8 Standard immersion is 1.5 meters for 30 minutes. I find the derogatory remarks on this site disgusting and disappointing. That's why you rarely see me around. I prefer to deal with adults.

    Olight T10

    I had a new P1D CE that I used for several weeks. Then I got a T10 for my brother, but he liked the Fenix better so we swapped. As far as I can tell, the Olight is comparable to the Fenix in every way. I actually like it better for two reasons: the low setting is 7 lumens v. 12 for the...

    Sale on Mag2AA

    The only thing I'm comparing is utility. When it comes to actually using a flashlight for extended emergencies, it's tested performance under those conditions that counts, not preferences. I don't carry a MagLED, I carry a Fenix. But when it comes to lighting my home, I'll be depending on the...

    Sale on Mag2AA

    I've got some fairly esoteric flashlights, including a couple of Fenix. (Fenixes?) I am, however, speaking from the standpoint of someone who has lived through three hurricanes in the past several years that caused power outages that lasted between three and eleven days. I'm also a retired cop...

    AA Maglite & Niteize

    Remember that the Harrier has killed more pilots per unit produced than any other tactical jet. ;) I've got an Opalec drop-in. For what it's supposed to do, it works fine. Any LED array that can't be focused is going to look bad if compared to the MM Xenon bulb pulled down tight, but if you...
