    Streamlight Twintask 3AA - any mod ideas

    Are there are any mods out there for a Streamlight Twintask 3AA that don't involve soldering? I have an old one lying around and it seems like it's a nice chassis.

    Bluetooth speaker suggestions

    Good to know, OK. Wait, why can't I put the speaker in a corner? OK, thanks for the info! I'll look around for a good price on it.

    Bluetooth speaker suggestions

    Interesting. I didn't know that about the Bluetooth speakers sounding better. That's good to know. That looks solid, but I'm worried about all of the reviews that say it has overpowering bass. I'm not that big of a bass-head. That looks nice, but it doesn't have track controls. :(

    Bluetooth speaker suggestions

    What about these, though? http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-computer-speakers/ Overall component quality being equal, wouldn't a pair of desktop speakers be able to produce better sound than a much smaller portable one?

    Bluetooth speaker suggestions

    That makes sense. What if I got a Bluetooth receiver and hooked it up to a short 3.5mm audio cable and plugged that into a new pair of nice desktop speakers (2.0...a subwoofer at the office might be a bad plan)? Would that be a better use of money? If so, are there any desktop speakers you...

    Bluetooth speaker suggestions

    Thank you for the suggestion. I don't mind larger size, since it'll just sit on my desk. I understand, but it's a trade-off I'm willing to make. I don't want to have to keep my phone sitting out if I want to skip a track.

    Bluetooth speaker suggestions

    I'm looking to get a Bluetooth speaker for my office with a budget of roughly $150. I definitely want good sound quality, of course, but I'd also really like a speaker that has track back/forward buttons that will control the music on my phone. Surprisingly few speakers seem to have this...

    Random significance question

    I'm sorry, I'm not trying to be opaque. I appreciate the assistance, and I'm really asking about the situation in the comic. Let's say they found the significance on the first time they tried a color and then stopped. Have they made any mistakes in their process or their calculations, or...

    Random significance question

    No argument here. My question, though, involves what happens if you happen to hit that chance early on. Is there a way to correct for that possibility beforehand, or is that baked into whatever you use to generate the p-value in the first place? That's a reasonable way to do it from a...

    Oops. Sorry about that. Just fixed it.

    Random significance question

    Random question based on this comic: https://xkcd.com/882/ Let's say they'd tested green jelly beans first and came up with the same spurious P-value. (Also assume there are twenty total jelly bean colors.) At that point, they declare victory and go back to playing Minecraft. Would the...

    Cheap LED light hiding a nasty surprise

    Awhile back I went to a presentation by some sales reps from Bloomberg, and as gifts they left us a bunch of little keychain LED lights. The light output was lousy, but I figured I'd take it apart and maybe get some use out of the batteries. Well, a few weeks went by and I finally got around...

    Wolf Eyes 6ax mod?

    I have an old Wolf Eyes 6ax I picked up (based on CPF advice, actually) several years back. I like the light, but it seems awfully underpowered compared to my new Klarus XT11. The march of progress, I suppose. Are there any mods for it that will kick its light output up a notch?
