    Significant 4XAA Battery short in Fenix headlamp

    The way the light is designed, you have to angle the head out in order to depress the buttons. All though the light wasn't on when I pulled it out of my bag, while unlikely, it is still a possibility.

    Significant 4XAA Battery short in Fenix headlamp

    Sorry for starting this thread in the wrong place! I appreciate you finding a better home for it! Thanks for digging those up! It really starts to sound like it's quite the issue with that model. I politely brought up that fact to the Fenix service guy who finally responded to my e-mail(s), and...

    Significant 4XAA Battery short in Fenix headlamp

    I woke up early last week to catch a flight to Washington state for a quick mountaineering expedition up to the top of Mt. Ranier. In my final preparations before leaving the house, I put in 4 brand new duracell AAs in my Fenix HP25 which I've had it for a while. So far it's been reliable, and...

    Sold/Expired WTT Want HDS HCRI 120 Lumen for Ra HCRI 100 lumen or HDS HCRI 140 lumen

    Not sure if it's what you're looking for, but I have an old RA clicky 140 from 2008, which I believe is the model with the Golden Dragon emitter I haven't used in a looong time (don't really remember if it had a warm tint or not). I could get you some photos if that's a model you're interested in.

    Does any one know the good brands for diving from China

    I know this is a bit of an old thread, but our water rescue department has been using lights from Brinyte (mostly DIV11) with really good success. They are very solidly built with tripple o-rings, and we haven't had a single one fail yet in the 2 years our firefighters been abusing them with...

    Lights in Murky water

    I would love to see some sort of experiment with tint colours, and see if it makes a difference. In the 5 years I've been a public safety diver, and over 100 dives in zero to low vis. (<1m) conditions I really haven't found a light that works better then an other regardless of weather a light...

    Advice on cheap(er) dive lights?

    Hey everyone! I'm looking to buy my friend (and fellow Public Safety Diver) a dive light for her sport diving gear. Unfortunately, I really don't have any experience with any experience with any other lights other then what I dive with the rescue group i work with (old school Xenon Sabre...

    P60 LED "dome" falling off/ P60 (2XAA) Suggestions

    Re: P60 LED lens falling off/ P60 (2XAA) Suggestions Well i finally got some beam shots, and i am absolutely confused. Originally for some reason i thought that the throw was much worse with out the little dome, but when i was taking pictures i found out the opposite (makes sense now that i...

    P60 LED "dome" falling off/ P60 (2XAA) Suggestions

    Re: P60 dropin lens falling off How hard of a project that would be? I am handy at fixing things, but very little experience with electronics. Also would i have to get a special emitter to work with 2XAA power? The current module is .8-4.2V. I read on the SBflashlights site that .8-4.2V is...

    P60 LED "dome" falling off/ P60 (2XAA) Suggestions

    Re: P60 dropin lens falling off Indeed! It's nice for lighting up the whole room. I guess its a multi-purpose bulb now, I can press the little dome back on and it stays on for a day or so... I shall try to e-mail who i bought it from to see if i can't solve it that way. If that doesn't work i...

    P60 LED "dome" falling off/ P60 (2XAA) Suggestions

    I recently purchased a SolrForce light, and the drop in that came in with it was working fine until the little plastic lens infront of the LED. It still works but is doesn't throw at all. The funny thing is that i can push the little lens back onto where it was before and it works great for a...
