    Zebralight is going to come out with flashlights! part 2

    Thanks FroggyTaco! I didn't expect a photo! You could also do that in front of a mirror... :) A visible strobe effect could have proven my half-baked theory, but I'm happy to leave it unproven since it means there's no visible strobe effect. The main thing is that if moon mode is pwm, it...

    Zebralight is going to come out with flashlights! part 2

    Cool! I'm not all that excited about the extra strobe (an extra medium level would be better), but a "moon mode" is a welcome upgrade. Is there any sign of strobe effect on the moon mode if you wave it back and forth rapidly, per my half-baked theory about pulse modulation?

    Zebralight is going to come out with flashlights! part 2

    Huh! When was it purchased... from ZebraLight site, I assume, not another dealer? I don't even know for certain if ZebraLight is pulse or current regulated, but assume it is current regulated because of the high efficiency. But I'm wondering if this "tweaked" interface is just playing...

    iTP A6 Polestar thread

    Nope. I'd like to know price... Funny, when I first loaded this the banner ad was showing a Fenix TK-40, somewhat similar to the Polestar in being multi-AA MC-E. Price for the Fenix is > $100, too rich for me. Even if the Polestar were < $100, I don't know if I'd bite after just now...

    Romisen RC N3 warm white, added more beamshots + real world runtime

    Re: Romisen RC N3 WARM WHITE I ordered an Olight from SB last week too and I know the light wasn't there then, so don't beat yourself up. It must have just showed up in the last day or so, see Marketplace thread: **NEW** Romisen RC-N3 Warm White LED Flashlight - CPFMarketPlace +1 on SB...

    What's the new hot 1xAA cheapo?

    You and the DX reviews had me all set to buy one of these for my Dad... I know he'd love the solid stainless steel... But then I had to wonder what CPFers in BessieBenny's thread would have to say about it: BessieBenny's Budget LED (DX/KD etc) Flashlights Review Roundup (Part XI) - Page 10 -...

    ITP A3 EOS Disassembly

    You're welcome... I enjoyed the excuse to procrastinate other things I should be doing. I did guess right that it was somewhere in the Maratac Part 2 thread. :)

    Why would anyone want a Stainless Steel Flashlight?

    @ HKJ Yep! Eye candy! :drool: @McGizmo or anyone... I never thought about the anti-corrosive factor. What happens inside stainless steel if, say, an alkaline battery leaks? Does it not corrode as badly or quickly as aluminum?

    ITP A3 EOS Disassembly

    It's gotta be in one of the Maratac three part threads. Probably around the middle of Part 2, but even though I just read those a day or so ago, I don't really know: Maratac AAA Q5 (Part 3) - CandlePowerForums Part 2 Part 1 Instead of getting its own thread, the later arrival ITPs...

    Why would anyone want a Stainless Steel Flashlight?

    I don't own a SS light, but... It's shiny! It's more satisfying when you hit someone with it! You can pretend the SS in the model number stands for Secret Service! If you have flint, you can strike sparks on the knurling! But seriously, there's the greater durability of the finish, and while...

    ITP EOS 1AAA

    ITP EOS 1AAA versus Luxeon III L0D Regarding the OP, mine seems to be lower than yours, probably about 3 lumens on low. This seems to be what most people are getting so yours could be a fluke. Just received mine yesterday. Got carried away this morning and ended up writing a mini-review in...

    Maratac AAA Q5 (Part 3)

    CountyComm is the only place you can get the Maratac: Professional Flashlight Index There are three CPFMarketplace vendors, including BatteryJunction, selling the ITP EOS equivalent, which is very similar except for not as well-knurled and can't tailstand (but stronger keychain attachment)...

    4Sevens Quark Round-up Review: Q123, QAA, Q123-2, QAA-2 - RUNTIMES, COMPARISONS, etc

    Awesome review, as always! Thank you! I was leaning toward getting the 2AA because of the stated runtimes, but now I'm leaning back to the single AA--I like that Eneloop runtime on Medium! At the moment, I don't think I should do the traditional CPF thing, get a spare 2AA tube and have...

    4Sevens Quark Series Review (unboxing, comparison shots, beamshots: inside, out)

    Re: Review: 4Sevens Quark Series (unboxing, comparison shots, beamshots) Great review! I'm glad to see the runtime graphs... csshih, any plans to swap heads between the AA and 123 to see if there's a slightly better runtime with the other head on the 123? I like HKJ's review... the English...

    Help - Fenix E01 alkaline battery leak, how to remove residue?

    I knew that. That's what "alkali" means, after all... but I'm in the improper habit of calling anything corrosive an "acid" because if you tell someone to clean up the "base," it could easily be misunderstood. Blasted homonyms! My bad... I should have used the more generic word "corrosive."...
