    Bringing an M3X on an airplane?

    I checked some pictures on the PVS-14 and my M3X pistol light is considered to be even smaller. So most likely I’ll be fine to pass through the security checkpoint with the small pistol light?

    Bringing an M3X on an airplane?

    Have you seen the image from the link on what the light looks like? It’s small, and it’s used as a weapon light but most of the time I use it as a handheld light. It takes 2 CR123 batteries. Actually, I like this light better than my Surefire lights to be honest. So will this be fine to put...

    Bringing an M3X on an airplane?

    I am going on a camping trip from the US to Europe and I own an Insight M3X Tactical Illuminator. Had this light about 10 years and still going strong. I like it because its small and compact, rugged and well built and can be even used as a handheld light and I prefer to take this with me as...

    Surefire V1 Vampire battery?

    Was your battery left inside the light for the whole entire time? Did it leak? Im just concerned the battery will leak if left inside the light.

    Surefire V1 Vampire battery?

    I am only going to use the V1 for emergencies which means that the light will be stored without use for a longer periods of time with the battery inside the light. Will it be fine to just leave the head on the OFF position? Just afraid that the battery will leak. But the CR123s do not leak as...

    Surefire V1 Vampire battery?

    Thank you for this information. So your saying that there is no real difference between the lockout tailcap and setting the head to the OFF position. Am I correct? For longer storage time, it would make more sense to keep the head to the OFF position with the battery inside. Correct? Is it...

    Surefire V1 Vampire battery?

    For those of you who own a V1 Vampire, do these lights produce parasitic drain? All I need to know that will it be fine to just leave it on the lockout tailcap mode if storing the light for longer periods of time?

Question is, in order to prevent the battery from leaking during long term storage, do I need to turn it to the OFF position or just enable the...

    Surefire V1 Vampire
