    MovieFlashlights Website

    Hi chaps.. I'm not sure if anyone has spotted this, if so I apologize but I stumbled across this web page this morning http://www.movieflashlights.com/ Unfortunately none of the links seem to be working and it looks like it's a work in progress but hopefully some time in the future it may be a...

    Anyone had TSA confiscated your LED flashlight?

    Re: Flashlights on a plane? I’ve never had any problems flying with lights a on plane and I always have them with me in carry on. As for the lights with sophisticated circuitry, I can’t imagine them affecting the flight controls; any electromagnetic signals coming from them are way too low...

    Wanting To Replace P3DCE. But What With ???

    The light that comes to mind first is the L2-D CE. Of course it’s not as bright but I believe has the same functions and its output is very impressive for a light running on two AA’s. I recently discovered the Sanyo Eneloop batteries thanks to CPF and got some the next day, they certainly make...

    What made you interested in flashlights?

    I can’t actually remember any unique event that triggered my interest in torches.. I can remember and my mother remembers when I was young from five - eleven every birthday I asked for a torch. Usually ended up with a yellow plastic one running on 2 batteries (thought it was great and very...

    QPS Police Video

    Excellent video. I lived in Queensland a few years ago and worked on the door at a night club in Surfers Paradise. On the few occasions that we needed the police they were always very courteous, fair and professional. There was one occasion where a young woman snuck into the club through...

    Do we really need strobing led's?

    Well I might as well chip in here as well as everyone is giving their opinions.. I really don’t mind the strobe and SOS functions as long as the U.I is well thought out and I think the interface on the fenix lights are well thought out in as much as I don’t even know they are there unless I make...

    Someting to ponder from the plucky Brits!

    Being British I always called them torches but after living in Denmark every time I said torch no one knew what I meant so I said flashlight and everyone knew what I meant (they just weren’t sure why I wanted to talk about them) Yes I think Hollywood has a lot to do with how language evolves...

    Pseudo-Ruhla watch? (and other automatics)

    Excellent choice. I have the Pseudo_Rhula and a few Seikos including the black monster, Ti-Samurai and skx 007 which is the same as the watch you have only with rounded dial markers instead of rectangular. The Pseudo Rhula is a great watch for the money, very hefty and uses Swiss ETA movement...

    Maglite on sale. Hmmm.... I don’t think they are loosing any money, I was in Copenhagen today and popped into a store and saw the Mag 3aaa LED selling for 500 kroner, that’s $90!!!! US.:shakehead It’s just amazing to take $90 brows through DealExtream and see what goodies you can buy. I guess...

    Look What I Found

    It’s amazing how lights have improved over the years! I can remember getting my knickers in a twist over the CMG Luxeon based light when it came out (can’t even remember what it was called) I could not afford the Arc Luxeon at the time. I then bought for about $70 (I think) a drop in for my...

    Need watch info

    I would have to agree with Buffalohump. The simply truth is you don’t need to spend copious amounts of money to get a decent, reliable, good quality watch. These high end watches are fascinating works of art that exemplify what fine craftsmen can accomplish, but for everyday life I’m not...

    7W Golston® 2xCR123A Waterproof Super Bright

    Hi. I’m not sure if this has already been mentioned, if so I apologise, I have not had the time to read through all the threads regarding the Golston but I got mine today and noticed the tail cap on the Pelican M6 LED fits perfectly on the Golston.. Obviously I thought I’d mention it as some...

    watch with good glowing hands

    Hey Wong great photo and great watch.:rock: I think if one is looking for the brightest possible glow from the hands / dial my vote would also go for the Seiko black monster. I have the black monster and 007 and can’t get over how bright the lume is and the general quality of the watch...

    Watch ramblings

    CY. I have had my eye on the TSAR for a while now, well actually I was thinking about the GSAR as I like automatics. If you have the time would you be kind enough to post a photo of the TSAR next to the Seiko 007. (another fantastic watch IMHO) I remember in another thread I think you were...
