    Weapon light that safely runs non-button top unprotected 18650’s?

    I’m not sure what you mean with your first sentence. I assume you mean it would take so long to drain the battery that any gunfight woukd be over before then?

    Weapon light that safely runs non-button top unprotected 18650’s?

    I suppose there must be a reason for that. Coming from Zebralights it seems strange to me. 🤷‍♂️ Oh well. I guess I’ll get some button tops.

    Weapon light that safely runs non-button top unprotected 18650’s?

    Both! That was my real concern. Zebralight has circuitry in the light itself so the battery doesn’t need it. I should have worded the original question better so I just edited it. Is there a good weapin light that has circuitry protection in the light itself that safely runs and fits...

    Weapon light that safely runs non-button top unprotected 18650’s?

    This was particularly helpful. Side note. I use NCR18650GA’s which are 10A. I see you’re using a 15A battery. Is there any advantage in the Malkoffs with a 15A vs. 10? The 10A is plenty in my Zebralights.

    I’m open to top of the line. I didn’t see any Malkoffs that took unprotected 18650’s. I can look again. Their website is atrocious when it comes to explaining the details about their lights.

    Weapon light that safely runs non-button top unprotected 18650’s?

    Hello all. I am in need of a light for an AR pistol build. It’s purpose will be primarily home defense, so indoors lighting is what I am after. I am a long time fan of Zebralight headlamps and have a stable of unprotected 18650’s that I would love to be able to use but I haven’t found a tail...

    What size inverter for battery charger?

    Thanks for the info. It sounds like a dedicated hard wire to the battery is the safer bet. This question was actually for a buddy of mine with a full sized pickup. My Jeep grand Cherokee has. 115v 150w inverter built into the console. It’s amazing that all modern vehicles don’t have that as...

    What size inverter for battery charger?

    I have an ebike battery. 48v 17.4ah. I want to be able to charge it in my car from the “cigarette lighter” port. How big of an inverter would I need to charge it with the car running? 200w, 400, or 1000w? Charger is 2.0a 54.6v Thanks in advance!

    Xtar PB2 circuitry upgrades/changes?

    I have owned two of the original PB2 units in the past that both failed in under two years. The first one stopped charging my phone after charging for about 2 seconds. It would just stop and act like it wasn’t plugged in. The second one recently stopped working too though differently. This one...

    Zebralight H600c Mk IV 18650 XHP50.2 Runtimes?

    I see the xhp35 has a 12deg hot spot vs. 17deg for the xhp50.2. Both have 80deg spill. I prefer some throw over a dedicated floody but the 17deg hotspot might be a happy medium. Maybe someone else can chime in with their experience?

    Zebralight H600c Mk IV 18650 XHP50.2 Runtimes?

    Why would anyone buy the XHP35 without it being discounted?

    Zebralight H600c Mk IV 18650 XHP50.2 Runtimes?

    I am wondering why zebralight doesn’t post the runtimes for the H600c Mk IV 18650 XHP50.2? The H600w Mk IV 18650 XHP35 Neutral White Headlamp is the close alternatve but it is hard to know which light would be the superior light. I value runtime over the slight increase in lumens and higher CRI...
