    15,000 lumen exterior area light flashing in cold temps

    Just swapped the defective unit for a new one and it works just fine. Tossed it in the freezer for a couple hours to see how it handled the cold:)

    15,000 lumen exterior area light flashing in cold temps

    It's this one. I'm gonna swap it out for the same one and see what happens but I'm guessing it'll do the same thing. Gonna grab the 10,000 lumen model also just in case...

    15,000 lumen exterior area light flashing in cold temps

    Just installed a 15,000 lumen dusk to dawn LED area light in Michigan and it flashes off and on when the temp drops below 40 degrees. If I bring it in the house for a while it works just fine. Any idea which component is the culprit? The output is amazing but it's useless right now. Was...

    Home Depot Closeout Lights

    Some Lowes stores have the Utilitech 3C on clearance for $7.50. Nice torch that seems to have better build quality then any of my Defiant lights. There's also a 9AA 1000 lumen triple for $10.00 but i didn't care for it.

    your suggestions: Most lumens in a 30$ish light?

    Thorfire C-8. Pretty inexpensive and I think they can take 123's and 18650's.

    C8

    Big reason why I went for the Convoy was the warmer tints available. Love the 4C tint of my Convoy C8's!!!!!

    Woop my convoy S2+ arrived, I did not expect this!

    I got a couple fake red ones from Gearbest back in August but they did eventually send me two real ones. Fantastic lights and I absolutely love the 4C tint. I also grabbed a C8 from them with the same tint.

    Definition of a Budget Light?

    Me too. It's truly amazing what you can get these days for under 20. I'm blown away by the Convoys I just got for less then 15 bucks each.

    Favorite Buget light.

    I just got the C-8 and it's really really nice!!! I went for the XML T6 4C and love the warmer tint. Think I paid around $14.00 for it.

    Favorite Buget light.

    After finally getting a real red S2+, I just ordered a blue one. The S2+ is really an amazing 18650 torch for the price.

    Favorite Buget light.

    I really like the Hugsby XP1(1 aaa) and Convoy S2+(1 18650). Waiting on a Convoy C8.

    XTAR RC1 Nightwalker ( Review )

    Love the idea of a single 18650 flashlight and charger combo!!!! Nice that you can just pop in a spare 18650 when she starts to die. So all my micro USB phone chargers will NOT work with this????

    Woop my convoy S2+ arrived, I did not expect this!

    I don't have a real S2+ to compare mine to. Can you expand on the build quality? Threads? Wall thickness? I may try to find a real one.

    Maratac AAA pocket clip (need stronger)

    I just tried the very sturdy clip from one of my Hugsby XP-1's. It fits on the Martac head nice and tight but then I have to twist the body for off and on. I guess it will do for now cuz I was getting sick of it falling off my ball cap. Can't even count the number of times it fell off while...

    Woop my convoy S2+ arrived, I did not expect this!

    Pretty sure the red s2+ from Gearbest is a fake but it's a really nice fake. It's got a beautiful warm tint and really cranks out the lumens on high. I ended up ordering two more!!!!
