    Wuben X-O blue indicator blinks, but no power

    Just received a Wuben XO. Charged it up, but it will not respond when pressing the on switch. The only thing rhe blue indicator top light does is blink 3 times whenever I press or hold the on/off switch. I I have tried to press the switch 4 times to lock and unlock the light but it does nothing.

    Niwalker MiniMax Nova MM15 (2xMT-G2, 4x18650) Prototype Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS+

    Thanks for the overlay. The s6330 occupies a volume of approximately 180ml(submerged it myself). Another point is a lights girth. The longer one walks with a light, the more noticeable the girth becomes in your hand. I am beginning to feel that for those wishing to do outdoor trekking, maybe a...

    Excellent points Dave. Hiking with a thrower is pretty frustrating. The hot spot will bounce around with your body, that and your view is similar to viewing your surroundings through a glass coke bottle.

    3400mAh Panasonic NCR18650B

    Re: Panasonic NCR18650B Is there a way to tell if you actually received a 3400 mah Panasonic cell? My unprotected ncr18650b cells have the numbers; 12210 on the label, as well as some stamped numbers on the side; UV 3309. The green and black ncr18650b cells come in several different mah...

    ZebraLight SC600 MkII

    What an interesting group we are. Ordering from vendors with our special discounts and free shipping, only to request that the guy trying to run a business, sort through his supply to give us the best tinted lights. Of course this means that the less attractive tints get passed on to someone...

    why increase lumens?

    Yes I did. The comparison was clearly slanted in the ET D25a's favor. Not only was the SC52 required to use the noticeably less efficient xml emitter, but it was required to drive this less efficient emitter harder at a higher lumen output, while the ET had the easier task of driving the xm-l2...

    why increase lumens?

    Furthermore Reppans, there are numerous lights from any given reviewer, that use the same emitter, from which you could have drawn on in order to maintain parity. Those who have followed your tenuous attacks on ZL recognize the distorted comparison for what it is. If that was your point, you...

    why increase lumens?

    Wow! You sure had to massage the format of this comparison to get your desired outcome. So the Eagletac gets to use the more efficient xm-l2 emitter, and the Zebra gets the older xml - how very fair of you. The Zebra has to drive its emitter considerably harder than the Eagletac, which we all...

    Niwalker MiniMax Nova MM15 (2xMT-G2, 4x18650) Prototype Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS+

    Yes, I have used the S6330 extensively for outdoor hiking, and felt that it would have been better served with a wider hot spot(more flood). I used to be a cycling product tester. Among other things, this involved large scale trials with expert and pro level riders using bike lighting equipment...

    Niwalker MiniMax Nova MM15 (2xMT-G2, 4x18650) Prototype Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS+

    The Zebralight S6330 was a great light. I believe I posted that I would have preferred a bit more flood. So yes, I'm pretty excited about a final review on this light. The S6330 is a bit smaller, but still managed to maintain pretty high output with thermal regulation. The MiniMax being a tad...

    Niwalker MiniMax Nova MM15 (2xMT-G2, 4x18650) Prototype Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS+

    Here is a thread I posted awhile back that has some relevance: Some years ago tubeless tires were introduced to the sport of mountain biking. The premise was that a tire that did not use a tube could be run at lower air pressures without the risk of pinch flatting from rocks or roots. The...

    I agree with everything you have said. I should have been more specific though, when referencing personal lighting equipment. I was not speaking about hand held flashlights, which as you correctly stated, are pretty focused on throw unfortunately.

    Niwalker MiniMax Nova MM15 (2xMT-G2, 4x18650) Prototype Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS+

    Rather than address some statements made in this thread, I would like to point out an issue that does not surface often. Among companies that provide personal lighting equipment, for a variety of activities, there is little emphasis on throw. This is no more or less the result of the equipment...
