    Amazon Basics AA NiMH batteries

    I ran cycles for some 2 year old eneloops and best I got was ~1900mAh so pretty happy with these Amazon, so we'll see how these pan out for longevity. Great deal for $1.55/ea during temporary price reduction. I believe the charge rate used was 500mA. I'm in the process of running the next 4...

    Nitecore SRT 3.

    Good review Rufhausen. I also got mine through Rakuten on the $49 but mine was black. All aspects of quality are good - I've only had it a short time and have been running a 14500/very bright. I really like the option to run so many different types of batteries to facilitate any situation...

    Nitecore SRT 3.

    Just got mine today. (paid $49 from Altatac via Rakuten) Quality craftsmanship, control ring is nice and the multitude of functions is nice. Only complaint is it doesn't seem as bright as 550 lumens on a CR123. Would a rechargable 123 produce more brightness? I like the flexibility to...

    Flashlight Binge Buying.....weeeeeeee

    What...no PD32 ultimate edition?? As a Fenix fan myself, the PD32 UE is the best Fenix IMO.

    Are you able to find top LED flashlight brands in stores near you(except Surefire)?

    I first found Fenix's at Fry's stores (there aren't many stores throughout the USA) but they have phazed out Fenix and their main line is now overpriced Inova. Lighthound near Houston is a great place for a flashaholic carrying Eagletac, Jetbeam, Sunwayman, Olight and an extensive line of...

    What was the last LED light you purchased and why?

    LD41 because of the reviews and anticipation from pre-release press. I like the UI and the expected great build quality from Fenix. Already have a PA40 so now I have very similar lights. Time will tell which one I'll instinctively reach for more often.

    DFW Texas Spring Flashapalooza, Sat. April 21, 2012

    Was in the Lighthound store south of Houston and the girls mentioned some of you guys are getting together in the store on Saturday. Sounds like fun but I'm 1200 miles north (was in Houston for business). I spent 2 hours there and walked out with lights, batteries and accessories. Really nice...

    Review - Balder SE-2 updated version .. XM-L 1x18650

    I just picked up 2 of these from Lighhound store in Houston and they are a great value. Does everyone know there are strobe modes hidden? Just go to low and hold until it blinks. Then you have the additional 3 strobe types (plus hi-med-low). To eliminate the strobes, go to low again and hold...

    Fenix LD30, LD41, LD50

    Got an email today from Fenix Outfitters stating the E40 and the LD41 will be shipping July 10th but no word on the LD50 & LD30. Special promotional bundle : LD41 + Tenergy smart charger + 4 NiMH batts for $82.95. That's the one I'm going for. (520lm, 10k lux)

    **NEW** Fenix E40 (4AA, XP-E R4, 17500cd)

    Why get this when a Jetbeam PA40 delivers 468lm and is structurally almost identical? > love my PA40

    Inova 2 AA light

    Sure, I have two of these and they are very nice for the money : quality finish, threads, stout body, good brightness, dependable. Go ahead and get one.

    Eveready 1D 1xLED light and 4xLED Floating Lantern combo at Target

    I think the OP (flatline) describes the lights in my pic in the first post. i.e. 117 hour run time & 48 hour for the 1D...plus other descriptions. He somehow got it for $6 rather than the usual $15 - probably an error.
