    Headlamp for a Bug-Out Bag

    That's disappointing to hear that they are no more. I would have liked to buy another headlamp or two from them.

    Headlamp for a Bug-Out Bag

    I've been using Spark headlamps at work for 7years. I use it with the reflector off so I have a wide even beam with no hot spot. You can easily thread on a reflector if you wanted a hot spot and more throw. These can be used with standard AA or a dumby cell and 14500 or the SG5 single cell and...

    Single cell keychain light

    Hey I'm looking for recommendations for a keychain light for my mum. Few things I'm looking for - single cell powered - single brightness mode (dual if simple change) - simple UI (she won't use it if it's too complex - reliable My dad will take care of the battery situation, charging etc...

    Recommendations for a new work light

    Hey everyone, it's been a long time but I'm back. I'm looking for ideas to replace my current work light. I am a heating and air conditioning service mechanic and for the past 7yrs I've had a Quark AA X on my hip. I use a headlamp often as well up close hands on work when I need both hands. I'm...

    LD11 or D25A clicky?

    Would you say it's more throw or flood? I'm leaning towards the XP-G2 at the moment because for the size, lumens and purpose I want to brighten up a specific area rather than dimly light up a wide area.

    LD11 or D25A clicky?

    Looks like a D25a is the favourite, I have thought about it in the past and a Ti would be nice. Now I have a new question while browsing online suppliers I found they also have a CRI-92 Nicha 219 LED version as well as the XP-G2 R5 and XM-L2. Which emitter would you pick and why? I don't know...

    LD11 or D25A clicky?

    I have never owned a Ti light but I have been considering going towards the Ti version if I do pick that light. This will be used as a pocket carry light. I like the clip of the D25a over the LD11 because it will sit lower in my jeans rather than poking out the top. No worries I wasn't sure if...

    LD11 or D25A clicky?

    Thanks for the comparison and detail but I've never heard of the L11c. I was asking about Fenix LD11.

    LD11 or D25A clicky?

    Hey guys I'm looking to expand and round out my collection of flashlights. I will have a LD01 on my keys (need to clean the threads) and I'm looking at buying and LD32 to run 18650 for more power over my quark. I'm looking for a light between the 2 if I want more light than a keychain but...

    Simple keychain light for my mum

    Hey all I've been away for awhile due to life etc. In the fall I ordered a DQG aaa light for my mums keychain so she has a flashlight when she needs it. And recently it stopped working, the cells are fine, threads clean and a multi meter proves voltage is going to the head. The light has simply...

    Suggest me a second headlamp

    X2 I have an Spark SD52 that uses 2 AA cells. They once had a bump issue with the switch which would cause the light to shut off. They have since fixed that but the one I bought had it and under warranty I was given an SG5 instead of replacing the light. I've used it daily for months, I work as...

    18650 throw light

    Thanks for the clarification, I prefer that UI to a selector ring. I'll look into the light but after talking to my dad about what kind of light he wants something along these lines will fit the bill.

    18650 throw light

    How reliable do you find the selector ring?

    18650 throw light

    It seems his idea of what kind of light he wants is changing and it doesn't seem like a 2 cell monster thrower is going to fit the bill quite right anymore. All I know for sure is it should run an 18650 cell and be around double our Quark X output putting a max around 850-900 lumens or more with...
