    SureFire E2L AA Outdoorsman Review

    There's pressure inside the body of the light, probably from a battery venting. I would definitely throw out the batteries ASAP to prevent damage or further pressure buildup.

    Streamlight Stinger Batteries And Chargers

    Both NiMH and lithium-ion are 2200mAh, so the only advantage of lithium-ion is weight. In terms of cycles, NiMH should end up being more durable and you don't need to worry about them degrading over time when sitting unused. The charger is just a power supply, the electronics are inside the...

    SureFire R1 Lawman

    SureFire is still making R1 batteries, the item number is 24132 or R1BATTERY-R. It is now 3450mAh, up from 2900mAh, but you can only order it from customer service.

    K2 Energy LFP123A 600mAh vs. SureFire SFLFP123 450mAh

    If you search for the model number of the battery charger (PB02LF-SUFR), you'll see Harding Energy Inc. show up. Since the new batteries have even less capacity, I would assume that the reason for switching suppliers is either product availability or branding. I can't imagine they would be too...

    K2 Energy LFP123A 600mAh vs. SureFire SFLFP123 450mAh

    Also, the charger in the SFLFP123-KIT appears to be dual channel, whereas the old K2 Energy charger has the batteries in parallel.

    K2 Energy LFP123A 600mAh vs. SureFire SFLFP123 450mAh

    If anyone's curious how the current SureFire lithium iron phosphate 123A performs, there is indeed less capacity compared to the K2 Energy ones (these were the ones SureFire used to sell around 2012/2013). Due to rounding, all of the ANSI FL1 runtimes ended up being the same, but you can see the...

    SureFire EB2 Backup - Review, photos, beamshots and discussion

    Has Jim been around lately? I think he has both and would be able to give you a definitive answer. I'm sure you could find something to do with an EB2C. ;)

    SureFire EB2 Backup - Review, photos, beamshots and discussion

    Why not just get an EB2T body? The EB2C body will probably work, but the EB2T body will work for sure.

    SureFire EB2 Backup - Review, photos, beamshots and discussion

    Sorry, I wasn't paying attention and thought this was the EB1 thread. The EB2T head does not work in dual-output with a clicky switch, though I don't know if the reverse is true as I don't have a EB2C.

    On the original model, both the head and body are identical.

    *New* Surefire Sidekick 300 lumen Keychain Light

    Good catch, my fingers are a bit cold. :) Fixed now.

    *New* Surefire Sidekick 300 lumen Keychain Light

    You need to look at watt-hours for the comparison to be even slightly meaningful (and even then, discharge characteristics and circuitry differences still haven't been accounted for). AAA Eneloop: 1.2V 800mAh = 0.96Wh AA Eneloop: 1.2V 2000mAh = 2.4Wh CR123: 3.0V 1500mAh = 4.5Wh If the Sidekick...

    TITAN PLUS

    Another thing to keep in mind is the spacing between output levels - medium mode on the Titan Plus offers a better tradeoff between output and runtime. On the Titan-A, high mode has short runtime and low mode is not very bright.
