I would KILL for the s2 or whatever model it was that had 1080 hours of runtime on low instead of the 720 the regular quark aa2 had. Im getting specific here aren't I, for a guy who can't find the regular one.
Im having a custom maglite built and need to pick out the latest greatest led for it. I haven't been here for a year or so, so I'll need the 411 from you guys. I want the brightest led, like sst50 or sst90 but in the smallest package so I can have a nice tight hot spot. Whats the led I'm looking...
Looking for a quark aa flashlight. Backstory. We came to visit Conoa Beach, Equador. We became friends with a couple here who endured the 7.8 earthquake that rocked Equador about six months ago. They moved here from Canada to volunteer and to teach people about the bible. Sold their house and...
thank you. the opus bt 3400 is the one to get. the bt3100 is last years model and was prone to overheating. thanks, just bought one. can't wait to throw away some crap li-ion batts.
can anyone tell me how to test a flashlight led drop in so i know how many ma drain its pulling? i wanna do a shootout of some common led drop ins but not sure where to start.
I've been googling and searching the forums and don't have a hard answer yet. is there a charger like my opus bt-c2000 that can charge and test li-ion 18650's, 10440's etc etc. chargers that can test the capacity of ni-mh and ni-cad have been around for a while and there's even competition. i'd...
there is so much good information in here. except for the charts i saw posted, i also see a need for more honest evaluations of current emergency flashlights (or flashlights with low modes equipped like certain newer multimode maglites) the fenix tk50, tk60, and tk70 seem to offer great options...
robert,
i emailed nite ize about the runtimes and type of bulb they used and this is the reply i got.
Jason,
After doing some research with my engineering department, it looks like our bulb is a standard high intensity LED. Power is approximately .5W to .62W.
Average runtimes:
2D Cell: 65hr...
poppy, thanks so much for your information over in that thread. i only just read it. as i was digging and doing research i came across old threads of the smj led and wanted some more information about it, but it seems its an outdated led bulb that is no longer available and that no body really...
I've been looking for an extremely long running (and efficient with a modern led so i can have maximum brightness per mah output) d cell replacement bulb. i came across a no longer made smj led, i forget all the details about it, but i seem to remember it was just powered by something like a...
ok i'm setting up my emergency kit in case a hurricane or earthquake takes us off the grid for a week or so, and obviously i need a good flashlight setup. i want something that runs off d cells and gets maximum runtime. I'm trying to compare specs but I'm not finding a lot of good specs on...
so is there a aa charger i can use that doesn't mind going up to the 12k mah that d cells require that you guys like that i should pickup? what do you guys recommend?
