    Sold/Expired FS: Teflon wire + small 0.5W resistors *Part 2*

    Due to a reduced interest coupled with a major reduction in the frequency of my visits to CPF, I will no longer be providing wire for sale. I have enjoyed providing CPF members with wire and getting to know them to varying degrees. This site is always a pleasure to visit, and I will be by from...

    How low is the low on Sunwayman V10R?

    I think he means not as long as you could get with other lights at the same output. The circuitry in the V10R lights is not that efficient, despite their marketing claims. Whereas some lights could give 1 lumen for 100 hours or more, the V10R is rated at 35 hours.

    Cerakote not nearly as durable as hard anodize, unfortunately...

    I didn't mean to say that it is necessarily a problem with Cerakote on aluminum. It really depends on how brittle Cerakote is, how strong it is, how thick the coating is, and how hard it is impacted. I defer to actual experience over theory.

    Cerakote not nearly as durable as hard anodize, unfortunately...

    There is conflicting information being presented here. StarHalo posted that Ceracote hardness is between 6-7, while HA is 4.5. Then there were a couple of comments that Cerakote is softer than HA. I think another issue that must be considered along with coating hardness is the strength of the...

    Sunwayman V10R TI Neutral XP-G Mod

    I think that is normal. My two lights are the same way (one Al, one Ti).

    WANTED:Your doggie pictures

    This is Max. He is believed to be a Pit, but he seems like he could have a bit of boxer too. In this pic he is wearing a necklace because of my daughter. He seems to like them though, so this is not torture. You should see 'torture' when she gets out her dress up clothes. Dare I post one? Here...

    SF 2 stage tailcap question (kroma or lx2)

    Here is an example of a thread where members discuss using SF 2 stage switches with Malkoff dropins. You will probably not be happy with the low unless you increase the resistance from stock.

    Lumens Factory E-head

    That makes more sense. Protected Li-ion would shut off when depleted, but with series IMR cells there is a greater risk of over discharging or even reverse charging. They really should have specified the use of protected cells though. Unprotected Li-ion cells would be worse than IMR cells any...
