I used to have an M2 just like that with a Malkoff in it... getting a lower output drop-in is helpful since they run a slight bit hotter in those (no direct metal to metal thermal path). But it worked really well.
One of these is really helpful, too...
The AZ-2 tail I mentioned earlier works on both Malkoff and Surefire hosts (it doesn’t fit my Elzettas), at 6v and 9v the difference in levels is very slight, but at 3v it works really well.
M61 HCRI2 (2xCR123) using the high/low ring works meh on high (levels too close in brightness), does...
The orange MD2 is the one that got away from me a few years back... the ones in the pic are just the MDC hosts they sold in orange. I noticed they changed the machining on those.. the new ones look nice and grippy!
Thanks! I definitely respect your opinion, and I'm leaning towards that... too much hassle and they really don't take up that much room. I just get overwhelmed because somewhere along the line I ended up with well over a hundred Malkoffs and Surefires. In my defense they multiply if you let...
CPF really used to be fun. I’m sorry you got bullied… it never used to be that way, it was a bunch of people who all like flashlights. I feel people online in general these days are a little too ready to disagree with other people.
I have a few NLLLL's I picked up from Oveready. They sat on the website forever, no one seemed to want them until they were gone. Haha.
I'm glad Cathy is still at it. The Malkoffs are some of the nicest people around.
Good to see you as well! I'm glad that Gene and Cathy are still hanging in there... they are such amazing people and Cathy used to write a nice note everytime I ordered something from them (which a few years back was about once a month for a while!)
Can't say I'm a fan of the group buy...
Yeah, Ebay has become serious business these days... you need to link a bank account to sell on it. I have sold some stuff on CPF years ago and it always went well, it is just hard to determine a fair price for everything (and yes, I have received a few PM's and evidently my twisty tube is worth...
Thanks for all of the messages... I think I am realizing I am asking the wolves what a fair price for a lamb is. 😄
I used to be way into lights back in the day and have to dig through and see what I have (about five dozen Malkoff drop-ins in various MD and SF hosts). Thanks for your help.
