    Arc 4+, Still a keeper!

    Here's mine, still in excellent condition except for a crack in the rubber switch boot. To those few remaining Arc4+ aficionados out there, any advice on replacing the boot or otherwise improving the switch?

    Arc 4+, Still a keeper!

    Yes! The latest and greatest changes -- and don't get me wrong, I love the latest and greatest -- but I never tire of my Arc 4+.

    LiteFlux LF5XT - the ultimate AA light? (Part 2)

    Got mine today (shipped July 1, arrived in SoCal July 7). Absolutely terrific light. The beam quality is about as good as it gets, and I'm quite pleased with the (very white) tint of my particular emitter. The fit and finish are excellent -- some subtle machining marks are visible when...

    Q's about M@g623

    I've got exactly that setup -- a M@g623 2D tribore, 13 2/3A pack from Lux, AW D driver -- and I'm extremely happy with it. :cool: The three levels are nice to have, and with the soft start you can run the bulb hot off the charger without flashing. But expect less than 10 minutes useful runtime...

    Resistance is Futile (mag spring resistance)

    Thanks NL. I'm still on the steep end of the learning curve, and was asking/searching for "copper braid" instead of "desoldering wick." I'm going to try this on my Mag64, which still has too much internal resistance. (My new Mag623 is working like a champ though, thanks in part to Lux's battery...

    Resistance is Futile (mag spring resistance)

    NL, I love your solution, but where do you get your copper braid? I've asked at the local hardware store and searched online, but without much success. --Pyros

    AW's Going Regulated ! W00T !

    Okay, here's where I'm confused: Suppose one were to build a 5761 in a 2D host using Lions in 2s configuration (e.g., two D cells, or six 17500 cells 2s3p), with Vbulb set at 7.0V. Wouldn't the light drop out of regulation when each of the cells reached 3.5V (and the low voltage warning get...

    AW's Going Regulated ! W00T !

    Thanks for the info, guys. So, doing some back-of-the-envelope calculations, it looks like one could run a 64430 (or its apparent successor, the 56580) on 11 NiMH cells with Vbulb set at 9.9V, and the light would drop out of regulation when each of the cells had been discharged to 0.9V...
