    WTB - Stainless bezel for Eagletac P20C2 Mk II

    I have an Eagletac P20C2 Mk II (an older model Eagletac), and I misplaced the stainless protective bezel that goes on the front of the light (near the lens). Anyone have that part they are willing to sell? Please shoot me a PM if you do. Thanks.

    What was the last LED light you purchased and why?

    Bought two Fenix TK16s this week. First one was for a carbine. After i got it and played with it - I liked it enough to buy a 2nd one as an every day carry. It is replacing my Nightcore SRT6 that I have carried 2 years.

    New Fenix TK16

    No problem. Some lights seem to do strobe better than others. But yea, I've never put much stock in the strobe for it's intended use. I never would even think about using it for that, personally. Now, I might consider it with this new Fenix. Thanks!

    Flashlight Explosion

    After seeing this thread, back when it started, I totally switched to 18650s or 17670s. As someone a few posts up above posted - the TRL1 is one of the few lights that this won't work for, however. I have two TRL1s, and that is the only light I use primaries for. I do not know if two 16340s...

    New Fenix TK16

    I gotta be honest - I've never used strobe before (for that purpose). I've looked at some of my own lights, and strobe did zero to me, holding the light at myself. So, I haven't really put much stock in the strobe effect on most lights I will say that this TK16 is the first strobe feature that...

    New Fenix TK16

    Yesterday, I bought a new flashlight - a Fenix TK16. This is my first Fenix light, despite probably owning close to 40 LED lights over the years... I decided to sell my Streamlight TRL1 that I had mounted on a rifle, and go back to a traditional shaped flashlight for my PS90... I'd rather have...

    Tail switch available for Nightcore SRT6?

    Ok - A solarforce cap fit on the light - but it would not activate the light, for whatever reason.

    Tail switch available for Nightcore SRT6?

    I guess so. Not sure how long the warranty is. But, it worked out. However - I bought a new light today that is better than my Nightcore SRT6. A Fenix TK16. I bought it as a weapon light, but I may end up buying a 2nd one to use as an everyday carry. It is brighter and has more throw than the...

    Tail switch available for Nightcore SRT6?

    Well, Edison Bright on Amazon is sending me a new tail switch for free! Great deal! I bought both SRT6's in Aug 2014.

    Tail switch available for Nightcore SRT6?

    I have two grey Nightcore SRT6 flashlights - I bought them at the same time. The tail switch on one has given it up. I swapped head units and confirmed it is the tail switch. The insides of the tail switch are not loose, and it's not a matter of cleaning the contacts. Does anyone know how I...

    Nitecore SRT6

    I saw the comments about the light being brighter with R123s, but yea - the shorter run time with them sucks. I used to use them in a Lumapower Trust 2, and the run times were the trade off. So, I just use an 18650 instead. I also really like the adjustment bezel to control brightness. And...

    Nitecore SRT6

    I have owned two SRT6's for about 13 months now. One is a daily carry light, and the other is my night stand light. I like the one on my night stand because I can set it so low to look for things without waking my wife up. But if I have to grab my Beretta 92, I can crank it up for tactical use...
