    Maglite barrel diameter 3D vs 2D,4D,5D,6D

    Has anyone ever noticed that the 3D has a slimmer barrel diameter than the other D sizes? I wonder why? 3D = 1 1/4" (31.75mm) 2D,4D,5D,6D = 1 9/16" (39.67) http://www.maglite.com/anatomy_spare_D.asp

    Upgrading LED's on Elektrolumens Tri-Star 4D... Now with Pics

    Buck, I also have a EL Tri-Star 4D. We are in a small group. Wayne said he made less than 100 of these. These were state of the art back in 2004 when i got mine. Anyways a cheap way to make your light brighter is to use NiMh D's. I used Alkalines when i first got the light. When i switched to...

    BessieBenny's Budget LED (DX/KD etc) Flashlights Review Roundup (Part VIII)

    UltraFire TH-1300L 7*SSC U2 3-Mode 1300-Lumen LED Flashlight (3*18650) Has anyone gotten one yet? I like the short stubby look vs the long 3 in row 18650 look. The price of $126 is good as long as it performs well. [hot-linked image removed - please read the Rules]

    2009 Streamlight Twin-Task 2D

    I'm curious if Streamlight has "updated" the LEDs with whiter, brighter, more modern ones in the last 5 years? Has anyone bought one lately? They do have a nice video of it on their website & the LEDs look very white now & don't look blue-ish like they did in the original flashlightreviews.com...

    Streamlight Survivor LED

    aubie, The Survivor LED says: USE OF LITHIUM AA CELLS WILL DAMAGE THE LIGHT AND VOID THE WARRANTY. I can understand why they mean not to use 3.6v lithium AA's but why can't we use 1.5v Energizer lithium AA's? I don't use alkaline batteries any longer because i've ruined several lights &...

    UltraFire TH-1300 20W 1200-Lumen HID Flashlight $96 USD

    Yeah, that's what got my attention, the very small size. I like the form factor. I knew it was too good to be true!

    UltraFire TH-1300 20W 1200-Lumen HID Flashlight $96 USD

    Anyone have any experience with this light good or bad? [link removed] A 20w HID for $96 is a great price provided it performs well. We all remember the GP771 disaster!!!

    Does the 26650 size fit a C cell mag diameter wise?

    Flash, I've decided to get the IMR26500 C cells from AW: http://www.cpfmarketplace.com/mp/showthread.php?t=184887 The length is 50mm & width 26mm, which is the normal C size. These LiFePO4 are 65mm long which are an odd length for me.
