    Is PK now working for Jetbeam?

    Jetbeam seems to like Surefire Designs this came out in 2008 or 2009 Jetbeam M1x with Cree MC-E, initially 400 Lumens and 21kcd they kinda diffused the M3 lookalike a bit with adding cutouts to the rear cooling fins with the second run though, they also boosted the output to around 800 lumens...

    Manker MK38vn - Brightest Full Size Popcan R (Pre-Order)

    My SFT40 is very cool white. Too cool for my taste, but as there are/were no other options when I purchased its ok for me. I like the light very much, although I hate cool white :)

    Acebeam W10vn G2 - 640Kcd Throw King R

    Jetbeam is coming out with 2 LEP lights. I'm confident that Acebeam won't leave the LEP market to Jetbeam & Weltool. I guess either the W10 & W30 will be available again or we will see a W10.3 and W30.2.

    WTS - FDT (Flashlight Deals Today)

    Is that picture of the actual light? The LED on the Tool Mule looks like a 319, not a 219.

    My Surefire M3T / KX9 hybrid project -> UNR Commander

    Re: My Surefire M3T / KX9 hybrid project -> UNR Commander I'm not perfectly sure but I think I remember the first Version had a MC-E, not XM-L.

    1,290,000 CD Flashlight (non-aspherical)

    I agree. But this is personal preference. We had a vote on BLF and the majority wanted a more regular flash light design and this is what it's gonna be. In the end it does not matter as the light is mainly for giggles anyways.

    Airtight 18650 storage using Lock & Lock containers

    I'm not sure if I would like mutliple 18650 Cells stored in a very robust and perfectly sealed container.

    Why are still so many serious flashlight manufacturers cheating about the lumen flux?

    I'm sure lumens might be off by 10 or 20% in the real world. But with 900 vs 345, there has to be a problem somewhere. As the manufacturers report ANSI, this is too big of a difference. Maybe the battery, maybe not turbo mode..

    I'm blown away! Are the VTCs able to power both Throw and Flood simultaneously?

    TLF Dobermann Pro XHP 35 HI Review

    Lumencracy u are of course right but this is a well known fact among flashlight enthusiasts. I think both are measuring with a sphere or diy versions following the same working principle. But they are not using the same meter and baseline calibration. Thus the results should only be compared...

    TLF Dobermann Pro XHP 35 HI Review

    Still "above 1000 for X minutes" and "exactly 1200 for X minutes" does not warrant any valuable comparison to make assumptions on how good or bad a driver is. Especially when the testing conditions and equipment are different. One light may be more efficient, even by a lot, but the presented...

    TLF Dobermann Pro XHP 35 HI Review

    Good comments on explaining why different measuring setups should not be compared. It's also important to note that on heavily or even overdriven Emitters "just 100 extra Lumens" can mean lots of extra current and a heavy hit on Efficiency. The only fair test is a direct comparison with the...
