    The SF M6 X-LOLA: 200 lumens for 2.5 hours

    That's so cool to hear! I'm so surprised this thread is still alive! But maybe I shouldn't be? Of all my incandescent lights that I kept--and there were only two--this was one, and it is still alive and well, sitting on my dresser, along with a spares carrier with 6 batteries and a spare...

    The SF A2 - Part 2

    Wow! I never would have guessed that someone would have posted to this thread in the last five years, let alone this year. Brings back memories.

    Indeed. Good catch. I edited the first post.

    The SF M6 X-LOLA: 200 lumens for 2.5 hours

    Hey everyone! Lots been going on in my life over the last three years. Work at the accelerator was crazy, as I was short staffed and had to cover the shortfall myself, along with all my other responsibilities. That kept me busy (and somewhat dissatisfied with my life), and then after I...

    Sold/Expired *SOLD* McGizmo LunaSol 20 - $700

    *SOLD* So, I need to sell my LunaSol 20 that I bought less than a year ago. Owning a house is, unfortunately, rather expensive, and I just can't justify owning such an expensive flashlight and not really using it. I wish I didn't need to sell it, but owning one $500 McGizmo EDC light is...

    The Titanium Flashlight Remintification Project

    So I guess Mr Milton never dropped in on this thread! LOL! Ah well, no problem. Anyway, it kind of dawned on me recently that I haven't stressed enough the main point of this thread. I present a certain method and the philosophy behind it, of course, and others chimed in with their methods...

    The Haiku: why I personally feel the 3S lights have surpassed the PD lights

    So I thought I'd post my further experience in regards to the 3S vs. PD lights. It seems since I re-acquired an LS20 that I have re-trodden the exact same ground that I covered back when I first got my Haiku! At first, as I posted, I was really really happy to have an LS20 again, and I EDC'd...

    The LunaSol 20: the new benchmark for EDC lights

    RL, Thanks for your kind words! I am definitely not the person to ask for advice on which lights would be best for such and such. I am way out of the loop on new stuff. I use a SF M6 with MN15 X-LOLA installed for outdoor throw. But if I had a lot of expendable funds sitting around, I would...

    The Titanium Flashlight Remintification Project

    Thanks! I totally agree. There really is noting else quite like it--and also, even more importantly perhaps, nothing else quite like that new Ti feel.

    The Titanium Flashlight Remintification Project

    Str8stroke, Thanks! eala, Well, I definitely wouldn't call this a "restoration service"! I'm not going to do this for money for anyone! I only did it this once as proof of concept and for fun and to share with others. To my mind, it is more evidence of exactly what you say: these really...

    The Titanium Flashlight Remintification Project

    These two are close to the same. Let's try them: I definitely want to stress again that the flashlight looked a LOT better than this in normal lighting conditions. Joseph Milton will eventually drop by this thread and he can give you his own subjective before and after assessment. But, in...

    The Titanium Flashlight Remintification Project

    Yes. I believe all of Don's lights for some time now have been made with Ti 6Al-4V. (Don please correct me if I'm wrong!) This is the most common alloy of titanium and is pretty much the "workhorse" Ti metal. Commercially Pure titanium (CP Ti) is actually more difficult to machine, despite...
