    Lights you "can't" sell anymore

    I've still got a nearly mint Fenix T1 tucked away in a drawer somewhere. It's bulky, not particularly bright (due to its greenish XR-E) and picky about the cells it takes, so it looks like hanging around until it ages past 'obsolete' to 'museum piece'...

    Show your EDC being EDC'ed

    How do you show a pocket-carried light? Turn it on, perhaps? ...Okay, mine's no pocket-rocket, but still...

    Orb Raw Mod?

    Here's one I made earlier. ...as in circa 2009. I think it started out with a Luxeon III. And ended up with a lovely neutral Luxeon K2 Note the thermal epoxy holding the LED in place. ...and the less than stellar soldering. :o EDIT - here are my original images from when I did the mod...

    USB plugin light modules

    I have a couple of these. Neither of them dim, but one's certainly brighter than the other. Here's a USB power meter comparison (with the insides of the white boxes brightened to show the OLED screen while not blowing the images out with the three LEDs): And here they are on my keyring, to...

    How large a light do you EDC?

    I always have a Promethius Beta-QR (AAA) in my pocket, and generally clip an L11C (AA) to a cargo trouser pocket if I'm wearing those.

    L11C

    Not yet. I'll drop them an email tomorrow. Edit, 17th June - No date was given, but they will be getting some tailcap boots from the factory.

    L11C

    I knocked mine off my desk the other day, and noticed that the boot has split, right on the edge, even though that's the squishiest part of the button. Probably due to a combination of the tail scalloping and the softness of the rubber. So, er, try not to be as unlucky as me.

    L11C

    It's a clicky:

    L11C

    Ah. It's about four or five seconds.

    L11C

    It's just shy by about a hair's width, so stands stably enough. 'reset time'?

    L11C

    No problem. This is my first from L3, so I'm currently thinking 'reliability issue'? What reliability issue!? :s I'll keep my fingers crossed. ...as for 14500s; they still disrecommend them due to heat. The head's based around a brass pill, but it doesn't scream huge heatsink to me.

    L11C

    I received mine - in Nichia 219B - today. Some initial thoughts - Nice anodising, though a bit slippery in the hand. The clip's a bit thin, but it's deep and grippy enough to work with my belt and pockets. There's noticeable battery rattle.

    Incoming - What do you have coming in the mail??

    I've preordered (so it's not technically in the mail, yet, but still...) a Gen II DQG 'World Smallest 26650 Flashlight' from CNQG.
