    Using Li-ion cells in LED flashlights safely

    Marc.collen, have you tried Keenbeam? He is located in the Ottawa Valley and sells Eagletac brand 18650's. Very good batteries. Also there is Mackoutdoors in B.C. I believe. He has AW's as well as Eagletac I think. Both are good guys to deal with. And then a few blocks from me here in the...

    Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G)

    Re: Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G) I have four. Clicky replaced on one after a year and a half.(D25LC2) And a wonky UI problem in a D25C ti. Quick replacement parts from ET China with no questions asked. So not perfect, but not bad enough to...

    New EagleTac lights mode switching mechanism - do they use pins?

    Well I've had mine almost a week now. Had some flickering twice due to the HUGE amount of lube they put on the threads. Cleaned the very end of the tube where electrical contact needs to be made and the flicker is gone right away. They seem to be way over lubing the lights these days. And make...

    New EagleTac lights mode switching mechanism - do they use pins?

    I just bought a GX25A3 and must say I don't find anything wrong with it. Apart from a bit of "pre-flash" I think it's called, I like the light. And the pre-flash does not really bother me at all, just that I noticed it because it's my first light to do that. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Eagletac USA support

    Had two warranty issues with Eagtac, but I contacted China direct. One was a switch that failed on a clicky (18 months old) and the other was a faulty driver right out of the box. They just mailed me replacement parts with no hassle at all. VERY happy with them. Sent from my iPad using...

    New guy from Canada

    If your in Richmond Hill you must know about John at J2ledflashlight.com. He has a store in South Unionville Square in Markham. I just picked up my third Eagletac (GX25A3) on Monday past. Mackoutdoors sold me my fourth Eagtac. My fifth was a custom job right from Eagtac China. Keenbeam was great...

    Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G)

    Re: Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G) I love my 2 amp XP-G. Tighter spot and more throw than my XM-L 1.5 amp driver. But yes, with either one you can barely see the difference in the two low settings. In fact the only way I know for sure is not from...

    ThruNite TN30 or Fenix TK75

    I only have the ThruNite TN31 so I don't know anything about the Fenix TK75. The TN31 is a hell of a wicked thrower. Almost 800m!, mine anyway. New ones are even a few meters more as they now are fitted with the XM-L2 [Mine is the XM-L U2, still highly impressive!!] I do have several other...

    IDC: which do you Carry at home, InDoors?

    Eagletac D25LC2 XP-G2 [2 amp driver] and Eagletac D25C Ti XP-G2. These stay in my pockets pretty much all day and night until bed time. On my night stand I have another D25C Ti XM-L U2 set on "moonbeam" and a Olight s10 with its horrible yellow tint!!, for those middle of the night wanderings...

    Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G)

    Re: Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G) And I too would buy from him again, nice guy. I think he had a bad batch, that's why I suggested to him to contact Christina about his inventory. But even with 2012's, on primary batteries you should still get...

    Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G)

    Re: Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G) So perhaps I misunderstood you. Memory only works in the group where you have low/med/high/ and all the disco flashy blinky stuff. No memory in the group where you have turbo and strobe. There is no point to have...

    Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G)

    Re: Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G) I had the same lack of memory problem. After buying the 2012 D25C XM-L U2 ti for the crazy direct drive lumens I found I wanted to have memory and all my light levels with RCR123's. So after only days of owning...
