    Newbie modder with Inova questions:

    I'm fairly new to modding electronic things, and figured I'd start with an Inova mod since they seem to be fairly straightforward once you get them open. The host will be a TIROS Inova T2 that while serviceable at the time, has been eclipsed by my modded Gladius, and hasn't seen any use in...

    INOVA Inforce line (was: Inova SHOT/IWA 2008 prototype)

    That might be the way to go--the NVG's and their battery pack are already on the brain bucket, so neck strain is already gonna happen ;). NVG's are more limited than people give them credit for. Ground based systems like the AN/PVS-7's and AN/PVS-14's come with an IR illuminator built in...

    INOVA Inforce line (was: Inova SHOT/IWA 2008 prototype)

    That's pretty much what I was figuring. Not to derail the thread, but can anyone suggest a white light / IR light combo flashlight that throws? Doesn't need to be a monster, but 30-50 yards worth of illumination should be ok for the IR. -Teuf

    INOVA Inforce line (was: Inova SHOT/IWA 2008 prototype)

    Anyone have any idea just how bright the IR is supposed to be? I've been looking for a dual mode flashlight (white light / IR light) for a while now and this seems interesting. Purpose will be for LE / SWAT use. We're a night vision capable team, and it'd be really nice to be able to...

    Help: Upgrade from a NIGHT-OPS LGADIUS

    I would second the suggestion of upgrading your Gladius. I had mine done by an acquaintance here, and it has been flawless. You maintain the flexibility of options the Gladius offers, just with the added benefit of brighter light on the top end.

    Reasonably priced IR LED flashlight?

    I'm looking for a reasonably priced IR LED flashlight. It's not going to combat, so it doesn't need to be build like a tank, but splash-proof at least would be nice. Use will be as an illuminator through night-vision. Suggestions? Thanks!

    Gladius carry mods

    Yeah, I tried to trim my batbelt down too, and I found I kept needing the stuff I took off. It seems it's time for technology to come up with a better way for us to carry all of that stuff ;) -Lawhund

    Cree drop in for a Surefire G2

    The DealExtreme one, while apparently a bargain, is by all reports too flimsy and unreliable for duty use. NotRegulated, from your exposure to the Wolf one, does it seem well-built enough to hold up to some rough use? -Lawhund

    Gladius carry mods

    Not to sound flippant about it, but have you tried moving the light further out towards your hip instead of carrying on your front? I keep all of the short stuff on my duty belt up front for exactly that reason: foward is the direction in which you will bend the farthest and most frequently, so...

    Thoughts on the Surefire 9AN?

    If you decide you want one, mine's for sale with a third battery and a leather holster. PM me if interested. It and the T2 got replaced on my duty belt by a Gladius, so it's just sitting on the shelf now. -Lawhund

    GLADIUS/INSIGHT TYPHOON SEOULED(P4) MODDING ***UPDATES & DISCUSSION ***

    I can give a review with focus on usage as a duty light soon. Gladius1 will probably have mine headed back to me soon, and it'll take about a week to get here. Once it's in, and I stop giggling like a schoolgirl, I'll put up a review with some beamshots. -Lawhund

    GLADIUS/INSIGHT TYPHOON SEOULED(P4) MODDING ***UPDATES & DISCUSSION ***

    I used UPS, filled out the paperwork with Warranty/Repair written in about 4 places, and they still wanted a chunk of change to release the package. >:{ -Teuf

    Any Surefire 9AN mods?

    My Surefire 9AN has been replaced on my dutybelt with a SSC-P4 modded Gladius. I've thought about it for a while, but in its present incarnation, it doesn't really fill any roles, and it's too big to carry as a backup. An Ebay auction generated virtually NO interest in the light, so I guess my...

    Lumensfactory LA for C2/Z2 and rechargeables.

    I wonder if the first two answers set a record for virtually tying on knowledgeable answers... ;) -Lawhund

    Lumensfactory LA for C2/Z2 and rechargeables.

    Forgive my simple questions, but using rechargeables in a flashlight is something new to me. My primary duty light, and weapon light when necessary, is a Gladius (off being SSC-p4 modded), but my backup is a S/F Z2. Since I can adjust the output on my Glad for runtime if necessary, I'm looking...
