    What's your EDC, Go-To, or favorite knife/knives?

    Just picked up a Surefire EW-04 for a steal of a deal, brand new in box for $200. If they were in this price range from the manufacturer they'd be everywhere. Excellent knife, great in every way. I'll have a hard time not taking the BM550+wilkins I've carried for the past 3 years, but I'm...

    Do any of you junkies have Surefire knives?

    I finally picked one up on a local forum. To say their knives are overpriced and overrated is to completely ignore their line of flashlights :p I got it brand new in box for $200 which was only achieved by talking four other people into a five way trade :D It's excellent, far better than my...

    maglite 6c resurrection as disaster lite.

    Google or forum search ROP. It's an extremely durable 6v bulb out of a Pelican light. Comes with a high and low version in each set. The beauty of the bulb is when you overdrive it to higher voltages it makes incredible amounts of light for very little money. Stock your 6c puts out maybe 50...

    maglite 6c resurrection as disaster lite.

    I've got dozens of maglites, old and new. never experienced a drain problem before. If it's an old one (no c at the beginning of the serial) the switch parts are getting harder to find. I'd suggest buying an old cheap 2c and robbing the whole switch assembly out. I love my 6c mags, but I...

    SST90 dd 2 cell?

    Yep, I don't plan to let it heat up much. Maybe I'll have to stick with a single cell for now :/ Are there any other new LED that have higher voltage that come close on output? I've seen a lot of X's and multi-die but don't know much about the new stuff. Guess I've got some reading ahead...

    SST90 dd 2 cell?

    Been gone a while, back or so it seems. Lots of new things going on in the world of LED, trying to get caught back up. I don't find much info on the SST90, but it looks very interesting. I haven't been able to find em with voltage range higher than 4v, although I'm not sure I know all the...

    Searching for UV output filter

    I have some lights with shrouds to fit different lenses, theyre 3 1/8 or 79mm roughly in diameter. I need to find a source for UV lenses. Ive found a lot of lenses for photography that filter out UV light, what I need is a lens that takes halogen light and filters out everything EXCEPT UV...

    Better single edged blade for EDC, straight or serrated?

    Plain edge too. Nothing I can't cut with my Grip that I could cut with a serrated edge in every day life. I use my knife 40+ times a day every day, I've found it with nicks and dull edge in one area so I use another part. I sharpen it every few weeks. If I had serrated I suppose I wouldn't...

    Pink keychain flashlight for my wife

    I have two pink minimags cut down to single lithium size. One runs off a single cr2 the other off a single AA size 3.7v cell. Both run a tlex5 led dropin that's somewhere around 140ish lumens at that voltage. I've just built a run of five pink single AA size with a much better dropin, having...

    My daily driver. Love my Wilkins grips, will buy more. As you can see, she gets used pretty heavily. Several times I thought she'd break but she's never let me down. g

    Big Jim (PAR36 Lantern) Hotwire List

    Thanks for the info Jimmy. I think I'll do the nimh pack like you suggested. It'll just add quite a bit to the budget lol. Problem with the search function here is that it won't find 3 letter words like PWM and NTC :( I'll keep digging and see what I can find. g
