    Looking for the best dog walking light

    I am kind of partial to the M30 if you are going to be transitioning to rechargeables. It is a bit long, but easily slips in the back pocket, and has a nice clip as well. I am not sure what your reason is for needing a shorter light?? My second choice, if you want to stick with AA's would be...

    WISELED 1500 LED

    Roller Coaster of emotions, I just found this thread today, and was getting very depressed reading it, until this last twist made me very happy. My Wiseled 1500 is one of my favorite, and most used, lights (in fact I have two of them) and it is great news that the company is back in business...

    Just Got a new JetBeam RRT-0 Second Run

    Got two of the new batch myself, and so far so good. No problems yet with primaries, and no pre-flash, that I can see.

    JETBeam RRT-0 Clip Problem?

    I just got two new RRT-O from the second batch, and two EX-10 Tail Clips. I can find no way to make this combination work. Either the new RRT-0's have a slightly different tail section, or something else is fishy, because the backing plate does not line up with the holes, due to the thickness of...

    Just Ruined $500 Microfire Flashlight Need Help

    I can understand why 47's wants to stay out of this thread. I have heard back from them and they only charge a restocking fee on Polarion lights. So, as long as the light being returned is within the 30 day window, and in new condition, it can be returned without a restocking fee. The L500R...

    Just Ruined $500 Microfire Flashlight Need Help

    Wow!! you guy's are really harsh. I ordered the second light, before I took the first one apart to see what the rattle was. I was expecting the second light to not have the rattle. I was hoping for an explanation, like, the pill is loose because it allows heat to flow around it or something. I...

    Just Ruined $500 Microfire Flashlight Need Help

    I have had contact with 47's, and have asked two questions, that I am awaiting a reply on. 1. Do all the L500R's have a head rattle, from a loose Pill, and is this designed that way for a reason? 2. Will they charge me a restocking fee if I return the new one. I will let you all know what the...

    Well... I just got back from the Post Office, and my brand new second L500R arrived today. Brand spankin new out of the box... and the head rattles. So, I is that a defect, or a design feature?? I am debating whether or not to keep it. On the one hand, I am not happy with the thought that I am...

    Just Ruined $500 Microfire Flashlight Need Help

    My flashlight may have technically been working, however there were parts inside that were loose, and needed to be fixed. Since Microfire does not provide out of warranty repairs, it was necessary for me to try to fix it myself. While I may not be as skilled as others on this forum, I was able...

    Just Ruined $500 Microfire Flashlight Need Help

    Not to stir the pot, but I am just re-reading parts of 47's site, and find the following interesting.... "Now our customers rely on us for the latest in cutting-edge flashlight technology - and equally for the dependable, personal caliber of service that comes with our flashlights. These are...

    Just Ruined $500 Microfire Flashlight Need Help

    Just to put in a word for 47's here, they clearly state the warranty's on their web site, and they were quite responsive to my inquiries. Also, in terms of referring me to someone to fix my light, they did suggest that someone here could help, and I do feel confident that, if I couldn't figure...
