    Malkoff LED drop-in for Surefires Spec List

    Re: Malkoff LED drop-in choices for Surefires spec list Keep in mind that the current draw info is for only 1 voltage level. For a lot of these modules its at 6V, for others its at 9V. These are all regulated modules which means the current does NOT stay constant as the voltage goes down...

    The Official Malkoff Junkie thread - Part 2

    First, thanks to everyone who posted with the kind words. It was a lot of fun to do that, I had been waiting a really long time for a night like that to come along. The video still does not do justice to any of the light's beams that night, to see the 3 dimensional fat cone of light from the...

    The Official Malkoff Junkie thread - Part 2

    I got my new XM-L Hound Dog and went with an MD4 body (only had 1 and have at least 3 of the MD3's and 2 MD2's). Yeah its got a couple of scratches or blemishes in the body here and there but so what. Its rock solid and will out last me. My visual observations tests in side and outside is...

    The Official Malkoff Junkie thread - Part 2

    I couldn't resist stocking up on some parts from the B sale. Have the Hound Dog XM-L head and MD4 rig on its way. This will be my first chance to compare the XM-L Hound dog to the original and to my older Wildcat with the four XR-E type LEDs behind 4 TIR optics that has always been a very...

    since you can never have too much Malkoff eyecandy and my wife and son both got the latest hi-tech smart phone with HD cameras in them. Just had to test the HD cameras the "right way". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHzTRH7JO0Y&list=UUGgCfqvZBZBAj7a-Sf3wm5g&index=5&feature=plcp...

    Need a favor...calibrating my DIY integrating sphere.

    your data looks good and logical. I would say go with the conversion factor from your 4 and 22 lumen readings of the Quark as your constant and you are done. If you meter has a cosine and photopic filter in it, they you should be as close to the truth as you are going to get. You can...

    Need a favor...calibrating my DIY integrating sphere.

    The input and sensor ports are supposed to be at a right angle to each other (90 degrees), Hard to tell for sure but it doesn't look like they are in your pictures. What is the angle between ports? Many of the 4 seven lights are very accurate to published lumens at their lower power setting...

    Need a favor...calibrating my DIY integrating sphere.

    I don't have any original configuration lights that were measured in the real sphere at work that I know what there outputs are to send you. No longer have access to an integration sphere system. So can't send you any calibrated lights and having you send me some would not help. However I...

    ThruNite P60 XML dropin any good?

    ] This is far from the ideal drop in module to put into a plastic body. this has been covered in the past many times. You don't have much thermal transfer through the plastic body. A metal bezel will only add a little more help since the module is still inside the plastic sleeve. You...

    FLASHAHOLISM DEFINED

    As a reminder to all of you in awe of this collection, I had stated on the front page that this was not just my personal collection but that of myself and 5 other serious flashoholics who had come to my humble abode for a pizza/flashlightpalooza party. So this was at that point in time a...

    Worst Punishment of your LED Flashlights

    the worst abuse I have heaped on to my flashlights is to make them stand in the corner unused and shout at them. You are not a Malkoff, you are worthless and will never amount to anything. :devil: As to the Malkoff flashlights, other than dropping them on concrete (repeatedly and...

    Improving the DIY integrating sphere

    Thanks for the info. I cannot trust a "Heavy" duty "Light" meter. That's just too much of a contradiction. :rolleyes: It would be nice to know how it does the changes for different color temperature lights. Normally you need 3 different color sensors to know what the color of the light is or a...
