    L3 Illumination L10 (XP-G2 R5 or Nichia 219, 1xAA) Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMS, VIDEO+

    Re: L3 Illumination L10 (XP-G2 R5 or Nichia 219, 1xAA) Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMS, V... Not sure why I have the problem. 2 AW's and 5 Keeppower's all a little on the long side for the lights. Regular AA's are perfect fit. Granted, AW's are closer to "good" fit, but head much harder to operate...

    L3 Illumination L10 (XP-G2 R5 or Nichia 219, 1xAA) Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMS, VIDEO+

    Re: L3 Illumination L10 (XP-G2 R5 or Nichia 219, 1xAA) Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMS, V... I have a bunch of the L10's all with 219. Great light and tint like all have mentioned. I'm always looking to use my 14500's in AA lights knowing the trade-offs. None of my AW or Keeppower 14500's fit for...

    Dark Sucks Prometheus Alpha Blue Label MC18-B- Impressions and Photos

    Any chance to say how happy I am with my Alpha is good. Glad I saw this thread. I've had mine for a while and it is both a fantastic light and beautiful work of art. Regulation is great, modes are spaced well, beam is awesome and just to have a chance to use it (usually at work) makes me smile...

    MX25L3 Questions

    I just ordered the MX25L3C Nichia from Illumination Supply (good dealing with them!). I have to say I'm partial to this Nichia tint as it Mr. Tone - for me, it just looks right. I can't do another cool tint in any size - neutral or warm from here out. Kinda think this is a good close to...

    NEW EAGLETAC MX25L3C (6 X CUSTOM MADE NICHIA 219 B11 CRI-92)

    I'm going to be ordering one of these as well very soon. Just debating between the MT-G2 or C version with Nichia. Anybody know how those 2 beams would compare? Distance/perceived brightness? Anybody have both coming???

    ITP A3 Question

    Cleaning didn't help. Needed to leave it a little too long on high with the 10440, so think it's the board. I guess I better start shopping.

    ITP A3 Question

    My stainless ITP A3 has died. I tried to find an answer, but couldn't find if a swap will work - one tread said it probably won't work. Can can all the components be swapped out with w working A3? Are they sealed in the head? Anybody done it? Tips? I have several other A3's, but only the one...

    What do you think of your Spark flashlights?

    I've had the ST6-460NW headlamp for about a year. The lens cracked almost right away (not even sure how - wasn't dropped) but the CPF vendor shipped out a new one (thanks) and it's been a great light since. Big flood, good run times, nicely spaced levels and nice build. Locking it out for drain...

    Prometheus Lights alpha Series from Darksucks Info

    I wasn't sure how the TIR would work out, but I'm liking it. Best way I can describe this particular beam is that it gives a large circular hotspot and softer spill around that. The spill part, though, has a hint of an aspheric to it, ie, a bit of a Maltese cross pattern. The pattern is only...

    Prometheus Lights alpha Series from Darksucks Info

    The Alpha (especially my XML) wasn't meant to be a throw king - it's a good flood with lots of light evenly spread. I got the TIR to get a little more throw (and it did), but it's not a far distance light in general. Durable for everday? -very much so (overbuilt inside and out actually - which...

    Prometheus Lights alpha Series from Darksucks Info

    I've had my Alpha XML neutral for a few months. Still very happy to have it. The workmanship is something you really appreciate when it's in your hands. Outstanding beam and ergonomics for a 1x18650 light. I use the light a LOT and funny how many people have come up to me to to see it - usual...

    Has your ITP A3 EOS blown on a 10440 ?

    Over a year and no problem. Never left on high for more than a few minutes at most - gets warm, but still works great.

    Sunwayman T40CS Vs Olight M3X & Crelant 7G5

    Re: Sunwayman T40CS Vs Olight M3X Crelant 7G5 I've been looking for a 2x18650 thrower for a while and this thread is pretty much the lights I've narrowed down to beside the Catapult V3. It doesn't seem that the visual difference is too great on the beamshots except in some spill - they all...

    Custom Heaven in My Hands

    Just opened the box with my new Dark Sucks Alpha and the word "wow" is my best description. Jason is one of the newer custom light builders, and after reading his background and a few emails, I knew I had to have one of these lights. Hand made and finished in brushed and polished aluminum, this...
