    NEW OLIGHT M20 WARRIOR

    I agree but it could also be a byproduct of the depth of field in the photo. The M20 has the advantage of better focus in this particular shot.

    Fenix E1... Why no Love?

    I still have the two I bought originally plus one I got cheap on ebay. I put a buffed piece of screen protector on the one I use most and it diffuses the beam nicely. The chapstick cap trick works on these too. I usually got a lot more than 3 hours runtime on mine. I seem to remember there...

    Light Output of Lumapower LM31

    They are currently on sale at BatteryJunction for $29 before the discount. That would save you a couple of dollars. I gave mine to my mom but I still have my LM33. I converted it to a single-level forward clicky also from BatteryJunction. Merlocka yours must have operated differently. Mine...

    Glo-toob love

    That's the part that was originally tripping me up before I actually had the instructions in hand to read them carefully. Entering the changing mode doesn't actually change to the next pattern, it just prepares for changing.

    Glo-toob love

    Try a delay of 6 seconds. That works with mine every time. Others have reported using 7 or 8 seconds instead of 5. I agree that it's a narrow window but I think 5 seconds isn't long enough delay on some copies of this light. I use my watch too when doing this.

    How do you get a dime out of Fenix lens?

    I wonder if a really good brand of gaffer's tape, like Pro-Gaff, would have had enough pull. Probably if you cleaned the dime and fully rubbed a small piece onto the surface and then pulled carefully it could have worked. (I'm lucky to have a budget for things like $13 rolls of tape... very...

    Looking for small EDC like Fenix L0D-Q4 - suggestions?

    Another vote for the LF2x. I got mine from the B/S/T in the MarketPlace here and it was a great, lucky deal. It's my new favorite AAA light and I've worn it every day since I got it as long as I had a shirt that either buttons up or has a pocket. I always have a Peak Matterhorn in my coin...

    Glo-toob love

    I had trouble with mode-changing originally on my second-hand green lithium model that didn't come with instructions. There was a thread a few weeks ago that cleared it up completely for me. Now it's very consistent and I like it even better than at first. Search for that thread and I'm sure...

    Why do i need a flashlight?

    I avoided a face-full of big, hairy spider and its 2-foot diameter web last night. It was right across the walkway that goes from my driveway to the front door. Perfect height, would have probably landed right on my nose! I would have beaten myself unconscious I imagine. :ohgeez:x100

    insects, and using a bright light outdoors

    I found the yellow thread protector caps from small compressed-air and CO2 tanks (like for paintball) fit some lights perfectly. The LM31 for example. I didn't actually get to test it outdoors yet, but the light it puts out looks very similar to the yellow bug-resistent light bulbs. This also...

    How about something from Peak LED Solutions?

    Brinkmann Cree 2-AAA Tuffmax...

    Re: Brinkman Cree 2-AAA... I was at Wal-Mart today and didn't see this light anywhere. We definitely need a picture from someone who has the light. They had at least 6 different versions of the new Coleman Cree lights, but not this Brinkmann.

    Liteflux lf2x question

    I got mine this week too. I have found that keeping P1 on 15% and P2 on bright but not full; with the user setting on lowest-low to be a very practical three-way combo. P1 and P2 handle almost everything daily because I use a light alot indoors during the day, as well as outside at night. Then...

    Whats the smallest PR based Metal Light?

    A couple of years ago, Garrity was putting out an all metal "somewhat like a Mini-Mag but different" light. You'll recognize it by the finger grooves on one side of the rubber cover on the metal barrel. It also has a rear clicky and a slightly larger head. This light is now out of production but...
