    Rexlight 2.0 Wow!

    I am impressed too. I recieved mine today and put a 14500 in it. I am happy that I purchased it. I am not sure that I would or wouldn't have bought it if it was the same price as the Fenix. For $10.00 more (than the Fenix) I recieved the Jetbeam CL-E and the Rexlight. I think this suits my needs...

    What do you wish your light could do?

    I wish my light could last 4 hours, be as bright as my ROP, have variable brightness settings, no strobe or SOS, and be no bigger than a Jetbeam CL-E. Oh yeah, and go to work for me on Mondays.

    LED lanterns for in-house use, help?

    I know that you are looking for LEDs, but Dewalt makes fluorescent drop light/lanterns for their rechargeables. I have the 18v one, and I am pretty sure they have a 12v one. Not sure if this helps.

    Lion Battery Question?????

    How about the rechargeable cr123s. How do they perform in say a Fenix light? All the really nice lights seem to run on these cells.

    List the flashlights that did not meet your expectations.

    4D mag. I bought this one a while back. Too damn heavy and not much, if any brighter than the 3D mag I got rid off when I bought it.

    Cheap Lanterns???

    I actually bought one. Than I went back and bought another. I put a PR3 in one of them and a KPR139 in the other (to run on NIMHs). Very bright, but not sure of run times. Maybee 2-3 hours. The lights are definately junky, but I think they will be good for the house in a power outage. I might...

    Cheap Lanterns???

    Duracell 2650's Complete Garbage

    I would contact them again, but I don't want their coupons anymore. I really don't think that I did or said anything wrong and the lady on the phone treated me like a piece of crap. I asked to talk to her boss and she said I couldn't because he was on the phone. He was supposed to call me...

    Dynamo ('wind-up') flashlights

    I bought one on Ebay for $5.00 shipped. It has 5 leds and a output to charge cell phone. It was a heck of a lot brighter than my nightstar (shake light). You can use 1-5 leds at once. It was supposed to last 20 minutes, but it lasted longer than that. I really never bring it out with me because...

    Duracell 2650's Complete Garbage

    It very well could be that I got a bad batch. I know that I didn't ruin them in my chargers and the back of the pack does not state that they must be charged with a Duracell charger. I am not going to lose any sleep over the lost money, but it is just the principle. I try to only purchase...

    Duracell 2650's Complete Garbage

    I bought an 8 pack several months ago and these batteries are absolute garbage. Brand new if you did not use them in a week you would have to recharge them. I have had 3 complete failures so far and I bet it won't be long before the rest fail. I called Duracell and they said they would send me a...
