    My Fenix PD35 hit the floor and died. What to do?

    There are some things you can do to diagnose the issue with the light. I assume you've tried a different battery in the unit? The impact could have damaged a rechargeable cell such that it no longer works, I've had that happen before. If you have a multi-meter or other some other suitable metal...

    I am fed up with Surefire

    I swear I read something in a catalogue past about trying to bias their lights for this colour area due to the eye picking it up better, and hence them doing a several thousand lumen green (or blue) IIRC LED light a few years ago. Maybe I'm misremembering...

    I am fed up with Surefire

    It's interesting that no-one so far has mentioned that the tint bias towards green-yellow may be intentional. From Surefire's literature:

    Focusing flashlights

    I always thought the lack of focusing flashlights was down to certain companies who did it originally having patents which other companies wanting to do this had to find a way around which took some time. Having used Maglites for many years, I have to say I've never wished for a focusing light...

    Olight Smini

    Re: *new* Olight Smini Looks like the new Olight 650mAh are capable of supporting the full burst duration on turbo. No massive step down visible.

    Olight Smini

    Re: *new* Olight Smini I tried max mode using a few AW IMR 16340s (550mAh) and black AW 16340s 750mAh. I've had all of these cells for a number of years now so if there are new versions out these findings may not apply however I tried the max mode and on all of these rechargeable the turbo...

    Calling all Olight M22 Owners

    Is it possible that what you're thinking of as black is in fact dark green and you're talking about the square the XM-L is mounted on? If this is the case I'd suggest you're looking at XM-L versions whereas you have newer XM-L2 versions. The little square the LED some is mounted on was dark...

    PD35 — P12 — TN12

    I made this decision last week and went for the PD35. They all seem very close in terms of performance, Nitecore maybe has a slight technical advantage with it's voltage readout switch, but in the end the aesthetics of the PD35 won me over and I've not been disappointed having had the light for...

    Fenix PD35 (XM-L2, 1x18650, 2xCR123A/RCR) Review: BEAMSHOTS, RUNTIME, VIDEO+

    Thanks for the review. As usual excellent work and a thorough cross comparison. One thing on the non functional raised bits on the fenix tail cap: although these don't allow tail standing they may serve to reduce accidental activation of the light. I made the choice between these three...

    Review: ThruNite TN35 Tactical/Search Flashlight (Cree MT-G2/3*18650)

    Good question - just what I was wondering about this light. Thanks for a nice review, I'm just not sure which TN to buy now.... you make a good case for this being THE ONE.

    Surefire AZ2 Review with pictures and beamshots

    It's quite a significant difference imo. The A2 is practically E-series. I.e. easily pocket carriable. The AZ2 is closer in size to the Z2/6P size lights, and a bit longer than them too.

    The SureFire P2X-B "Fury" 500lu flashlight thread

    Have you ever seen an XP-G being driven hard enough to deliver 450lm? As I understood things, the XP-G was maxed out in the mid 300lm range at 1.5A, I don't believe it's capable of 450lm as a single emitter.

    New Maratac "Rev 2" AAA light at County Comm....

    Would an XM-L package even fit in the tube? The lack of medium is a. Bit of a turn off for me personally but it's hard not to like a higher high that also runs for longer.
