    Using 123A's in Gen3 night vision?

    I have a python night vision scope, I just use it as a monocular. I have it for sale elsewhere and am getting a lot of tire kickers, so I would love to be able to use a protected rechargeable cell in it for this purpose, However, I do not want to damage the electronics.. I can post specs on the...

    Truck problems, lack of power, funny smell

    My 02 Safari is acting up(4.3l), it is my service vehicle and can't come off the road just yet. It runs fine at normal city speeds, but I get an occasional and intermittent code that says my thermostat needs replacing. The issues start when I ask the truck for power, it will not accelerate...

    Photo-shop guys, I need some help.

    Outstanding! But at the risk of sounding ungrateful, is there a lighter, girlier pink? And thanks, that was pretty darn fast.

    Photo-shop guys, I need some help.

    I have a friend that is getting married, her dream is to leave in her new John Deere 9230, as pictured below. The catch is that she wants it pink and I thought I would try and show her what it would look like. Problem is, I have no idea how to. Here is a 9230, if anyone as the ability to change...

    Can this light be modded?

    Thanks, I appreciate the help. This battery is a 6V battery, so does that mean the bulb would be a 6V bulb? More importantly, If I go to a 12V cell (or 18650's) could I swap out the bulb too? This light is used very intermittently, on for 10 second bursts only a few times per evening.

    Can this light be modded?

    I figure if I am going to carry around a pound of lead acid I may as well make the best of it. Actually, I would like to dump the lead acid all together and go to a 18650 or similar, if possible. The reflector is plastic, same with the window. I see some potential here, I just lack the skill...

    M20 Warrior Vs. PD30 R4 and a mystery light

    The spill on the XPG is very similar to the Olight, I have had a lot of lights move in to my house, that Olight is without doubt the most versatile. I ordered a new light because my Olight was out for repair after a severe beating, kinda regret it though after seeing this Fenix try to perform to...

    M20 Warrior Vs. PD30 R4 and a mystery light

    I suspect they will be lost before they break, they are for the kids. For that purpose they have a significant value to me, lost? No problem, grab another one. I have three kids under 7, "value" has a lot of meanings to me.:)

    M20 Warrior Vs. PD30 R4 and a mystery light

    Figured it was time to replace my M20 so after a bit of work I managed to find a PD30 X-PG. I have to say the PD30 is pretty disappointing, for a claimed 265 lumen's it falls short of the M20, spill is about the same, throw is noticeably less. it'll be a keeper due to it's size though. A day or...

    Anchoring steel to a cinderblock wall?

    The bolts all the way through the wall is a classic example of not seeing the forest through the trees. Also a classic example of why I trust you guys with my decisions.

    Anchoring steel to a cinderblock wall?

    Lots of great ideas, I am liking the one of going through the wall completely and adding a backer plate. Securing the fasteners will likely be done with a spot weld. The door is the entrance to my office, it is under the master bedroom in my house, all 4 walls are cinder-block, the doorway in to...

    Anchoring steel to a cinderblock wall?

    I had a vault door made for my gun room, the door is secure but the designer left 6 tabs on the door, 3 each side. I need to know the best anchor to put in these tabs.. I certainly don't know a lot about steel to concrete, I have all the tools I will need, but I don't know what to screw in to...

    O'Light M20 issue

    Thanks, that exactly what I was looking for, I didn't know what words to use in a search.

    O'Light M20 issue

    There is a small clear plastic dome on the LED that has come off and is floating loose in the bezel of my light. I am assuming it is pretty important because with it not on the LED the beam pattern is horrible, rings, black spots.. Is this a DIY project? I realize I could glue it back on but it...
