    What is the longest you have carried the same EDC light?

    This Draco has given me 15 years of service. I thought it died but it was a bad battery and it running fine again. I'm still perfectly happy with it.

    Is there a custom light like this that I can get now?

    We all have issues. I appreciate your honesty. Good luck in finding happiness, peace or whatever you are seeking. If you do spend some big money on a light then please post pictures and a review.

    Draco died, need replacement advice

    Hi Vemice, I had to check on the 10280 charger since it's at work. It's a cheap little Nano single cell charger. I may have purchased it off the forum. It's my second one since the first one died. Take care, Dave

    Draco died, need replacement advice

    Update: It's working. I tried a different charger and cable at work at it charged fine. Works good. Output is pretty good but I like the high output and beam of the draco better. Nitecorestore.com was very responsive and professional. Here's a sample of their last message: "Dear David...

    Draco died, need replacement advice

    Howdy guys, I got the little Tini in today. I like the small size and concept. But, it's dead on arrival... The seller put some home made instructions in the box saying to charge it for at least 5 minutes before using (they probably tend to arrive with a dead battery.) I charged for a few...

    Draco died, need replacement advice

    Hey, thanks guys. I appreciate the input. I like the minimal weight of the Draco. The only flat light I've seen that has the minimal weight is the Nitecore Tini. They say it weighs 13.4 g / 0.47 oz which is very impressive considering that's what the Draco weighs (with battery). Nitecore...

    Draco died, need replacement advice

    Oooo, that flat one is pretty cool looking. Could you please give a recommendation for a current production model in that style? These flashlights are kind of hard to resist when I get interested. Thanks, Dave

    Draco died, need replacement advice

    Hey, thanks guys. I think I'll try to fix it. The Eiger 10280 sounds very nice. I always was interested in trying a Peak but never pulled the trigger. Last question. Are 10280's going out of style? There don't seem to be as many for sale. I'm going to try a new battery just to make...

    Draco died, need replacement advice

    Hi guys, I've been carrying the Draco (small custom 10280 powered light sold here by Modamag) since he first introduced it. I sent it back for repair in 2010 and it's been on my keychain, problem free until now. I tried reaching Jonathan via email but the email was rejected. It looks like he...

    Cheapest place to get legit Enloops?

    Excellent thanks for the tips. Are the Amazon Basics relabeled Enloops? I assume these are the ones StarHalo suggested. I don't see any with a white top. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007B9NV8Q/?tag=cpf0b6-20 Also, could I please get a recommendation on a charger that will be easy for staff to...

    Which AA Zebra Light Head Lamp?

    Thanks Mark. Why the H502? The H52's seem brighter? I don't see the difference other than the brightness. Thanks. Dave
