    My thoughts on LED Lenser P14 and P17

    A practical review. Have been looking at two models of LED Lenser, with a view for purchase, and here are my observations. I will add the pictures later, when I work out how!!! Some info and comments on the LED Lenser P17 and P14 models, sourced from a retailer in Australia. Note that I do not...

    Fenix TK40 Review - NEW beamshots up

    Thanks for the figure Locoboy. I did a comparison wih LED Lenser, and get the following. I note this is a TK40 thread, so will put more info in a better place, but at 54 inches front of lens to wall, I get: LL P17 (high, focus to spot) central hot spot 7.5 inch, with some softer spill to 13...

    Are flashlights a bad expense? They always die

    I guess this question is a bit like asking if buying a hammer is a bad investment. If you need to drive in some nails, it is not. But then, if you need to drive some 6 inches nails, you do not buy a tack hammer, and if you need to drive in pegs for circus tent ropes, you do not buy a claw...

    Where to get HPR71 Bulbs

    Thanks Ictorana. I guess I was thinking 6v bulb as the battery is 6v. Now just need to track some down. Might be easier to get another torch, but then I would have three of them rolling about. I saw the Dolphin in a pack with a '2xD Mini Dolphin' the other day in the s'market for Aus$18...

    Fenix TK40 Review - NEW beamshots up

    I am with you Jack. I am not sure if we are re-inventing the wheel, or revolutionising the science of light reviews. The "field of beam at 100metres" = FOB100 ... ok, ok, yards if you must!! The only down-side is that some poor reviewer has to walk backwards and forwards from the lights to the...

    4xAA Flashlight

    Re: 4xAA Flashlight- some comments on Led Lenser P14 Recently looked at the LED Lenser P14. Some thoughts on it: -nice in the hand. Not a small torch, but not unwieldy, would fit in a big coat pocket. Just a good handful and a bit -200 lumen on high, with low power option (not sure of lumen...

    Fenix TK40 Review - NEW beamshots up

    thanks Locoboy. I agree that the beamshots for the TK40 seem very clean and even, better than others in the LED range. My reason for the query is that I am after a light for use in emergency services (rural fire brigade) and I know that a light with a broad flood can be a problem for others...

    Fenix TK40 Review - NEW beamshots up

    Re: Fenix TK40 Review - query re beamshots and beam comparison I will start by saying what a great, informative forum this is. Thanks to all. I can't see it anywhere in the text, but can someone tell me what the setting as for Wattnots original beamshots in the review (630 lumen "Turbo" or...

    Where to get HPR71 Bulbs

    Re: Where to get HPR71 Bulbs for Eveready Dolphin in Aus I realise this in an old thread, but I believe this is the bulb I am after, in Victoria, Australia. Can someone confirm that this is the bulb for the non-rechargeable Eveready Dolphin torch that is common in Australia? Most reference in...
