    SOLVED: Possible problem w/Acebeam UC15?

    Re: Possible problem w/Acebeam UC15? I just received my Acebeam UC15 , I turned it on once and then nothing but a single flash of momentary light from the emitter, any ideas as to what might have happened after only 5 minutes of using the light, I used an AAA eneloop and then a standard AAA...

    lion heart flashlight crystal or bezel

    I came across a part I had purchased many years ago in the infancy of the cpf. I came across the glass piece that goes to protect the led in the front of the flash light for a " Lion Heart" flashlight. If anyone wants it for free, send me a pm or email and tell me that you can send me a stamped...

    Review: Zebralight SC600w mkIII HI (XHP-35 HI, 18650)

    I purchased the zebralight MKII and the MKIII and it was a huge mistake. both of theses lights don't come anywhere near their advertised light output. the thing that attracted me to these lights was the superior head side switch which is easy to find in the dark. The Run time on these lights is...

    I purchased two Zebralights, boy am I sorry now

    first light I purchased was the SC600 II L2 and then subsequently the SC600 III L2 before I even received the first one. The specs on the III L2 seemed better and I was soon to discover that the first light is not what it is purported to be. The II L2 is the kind of light performance wise that...

    Zebralight plans MKIII's and SC63 release for this year

    I have been with the cpf almost since its inception, I joined in 2003 when a 60 lumem surefire light was held with some reverence. Fast forward to the days of the 4/18650 tiny monsters of the world and it's still all about an edc light. The only flashlight that counts is the one you have with...

    redLed, my reference to people stopping by the lead build guy came about when there were a large number or people getting stiffed and somebody close by had enough I guess. I was never involved in one of those fact finding missions, I believe this cutest, seductive light was called the firefly...

    I came on board here in 2003

    I wasn't trying to say that it was better then, nothing could be further from the truth, I was trying to give a look through my crystal ball, I'm glad that things have expanded to what they are now. The coolest part is back then, flashlight technology was just in the beginning and to say that...

    I came on board here in 2003

    I will always have a warm spot in my heart for the cpf, we were ahead of our time and all that came for a look stayed. It was miraculous how invested people became after just a couple of visits. The wonder of it all. There were a lot of electrical engineers, physicists, enthusiasts of all kinds...

    I came on board here in 2003

    I joined these forums while it was still a small community of like minded friendly people. If you made a deal with somebody people usually sent the item to the other person before you got payment because there was a high level of trust. The reason I am posting today is, way back then , the...

    Why does everyone hate mag lite?

    I didn't have the courage to read the whole thread, but I was around back in the beginning when Mag tried to level the playing field by literally suing everyone that had a flashlight with a round head. They haven't done anything innovativein the last 50 plus years and I just saw a commercial of...
