    H602 plans tossed out?

    i don't know. there's at least one more guy, this guy in the Marketplace, and he's been looking for one for ages it seems. but i can't speak for anyone else though. i just know that if they brought back the H50 with a R2 emitter and charged $39 for it, i would buy a couple.

    Replacement bulbs for Petzl Zoom

    thanks, i'll try looking at some 3 cell bulbs. how long does a 3 cell bulb last when you drive it with 4 nimh?

    H602 plans tossed out?

    amen to that. i'd rather wait to buy a lamp that's been fully tested than buy it early and become an unwitting member of their product testing team. i was hoping to get a H501 on sale too. kinda bummed about that. and you're not the only one who wishes that ZL would bring back a small twisty.

    H602 plans tossed out?

    AFAIK, all they did was put up that spreadsheet that has "H602 2012" written on it. and it's still 2012, it ain't 2013 yet. i don't think they ever made an actual official announcement about the H602 either. as for getting your questions answered, did you create an account on their site and...

    H602 plans tossed out?

    it is absolutely pure and wild speculation. i thought it was appropriate considering the OP presented pure and wild speculation himself regarding the status of the H602. now, i like Bolster's theory better. his is even more detailed and thought out. i would like to see more people throw...

    H602 plans tossed out?

    seems like it. i think they got tired of folks whining about them not meeting the H502 release dates and they decided that they aren't coming out with any new flood models from now on. i noticed they don't have the H501 on their website anymore either. they have the H501w but not the H501. i...

    Head torch setup for RUNNING!

    newer Sparks don't step down apparently, and can stay at max until the battery drains. the H600 steps down from max after just 3 minutes. so based on your own reasoning, the ST6 is actually better suited to the task. but anyway, it's not as if he's gonna use it on full burn the whole night...

    Head torch setup for RUNNING!

    has no one mentioned the Spark ST6? i don't run trails at night, so take this with a grain of salt, but it seems to me like that would be better than a ZL H600, no? it comes with a top strap so it's probably a little better bounce wise than a H600. and if i'm not mistaken, is a bit cheaper...

    General purpose headlamp - 1AA or 2AA

    i guess i would throw the Spark ST5 into the mix as well. it's nice that it comes with both a clear and a frosted lens so you can switch back and forth between a floody beam and a more throwy beam depending on what you want. regarding the Spark SD52, one thing you might want to consider...

    Custom Angle Flashlight

    i was thinking that if there are D sized cells that weigh a lot less than D sized alkies i might want to look into getting some. right now i use AA nimhs in D adapters for my D lights. my AA nimhs (Eneloops) weigh 26 grams. i think D alkies weigh around 135 grams. if there are D sized...

    Fenix E01 Price +

    Fenix E01 is dim, but it is unfailingly reliable, practically bomb proof, and will run forever. it's pretty much the ideal emergency or backup light. iTP A3 is bright for it's size, but many have failed, runtimes on the two higher modes are kind of short, and personally the sloppy threads...
