    Your opinion on digital cameras that use Ni-Mh battery packs

    I am abou to buy a new compact camera. I need something with good IQ that can be strapped to a belt. The first thing I searched for was a camera with AA batteries. Unfortunately there is none that can do decent pics (to my standards, of course). I am talking about the technical side of things...

    Review of / Measurement on Charger Xtar VP1

    Re: Review of / Measurement on Charger Xtar VP On the other hand, charging like this the batteries will last longer. I remember one thread in the forum that stated something like charging up to 4.15 or so will double the battery cycles. Tried to find that, but no luck :( (maybe it is my memory...

    Medium size, good brightness, LED running on eneloops

    Maybe a 2xAA light like a Jetbeam Ba20. A bit over your budget.

    It's Like Waking Up From a Coma!!

    For your eneloops I suggest checking the zebralights. 280 form a single NiMH AA, with amazing runtimes in medium modes, great low modes and a very unique and useful user interface (waiting for the NW version to get one myself).

    Best headlamp <= $200

    A mule is a flashlight without reflector. All flood. Keep in mind they will work great for close action, but they have the lowest throw of them all.

    AA EDC with Kiss interface

    I think I will get E11. Throw is not a must, but can be useful in the woods where they will be (most probably) used. On the other hand I found the E05 flood, wich should be similar as E11, almost perfect to walk in forest paths at night. Does someone have a pic comparing E11 size against...

    AA EDC with Kiss interface

    Thanks for the suggestions - E21. 2xAA. Need an EDC (edited the first post just when you were writing) - LD10, too many modes. Need something simpler, no need for strobes and the like - LD15. Low is too low. Even the low in the BA10 is too low :(

    AA EDC with Kiss interface

    Some days ago my father asked me to get a few lights to give away to some neighbours we are in good terms with. I was trying to find the "ideal" light for the task but found none that fulfill all the requirements. - It MUST be 1xAA powered. - Easy to use interface. The ideal levels would be...

    LED flashlight manufacture and trends

    Romisen RC-P3 is even older... Ok, they are not "premium", but they exist ;)

    What light for rural night dog-walking?

    Almost every 2xAA light that are usually talked about in these forums will be great to dog-walking. Light enough not to be a burden, use easy to find batteries and enough power to put to shame the typical D-Cell lights average people have.

    MY TIPS - to INCREASE your GAS MILAGE

    - buy a diesel car with manual tranny. - be smooth. I currently have a Passat 1.9 TDI with 130 bhp. Great car to do a lot of miles. Can do 1000 km with 60 l of fuel easily (about 45 mpg in non-flat terrain), have lots of torque to overtake a the engine will last more than the gas equivalent...

    best single AAA light, not preon 1

    Take a look at Klarus Mi10 or, if you find one, a preon Revo. I want a Mi10 myself, but the SS version has became unobtanium.

    What bikes can do for you

    Re: What bike's can do for you? I feel very fortunate because I found a job less than 10 minutes walking from my home. We don't know where you live, but if you are from USA, then you should check gas prices here (just a hint: roughly twice as much, IIRC).

    Fenix E01 Price +

    Some lights can be droped 1.5 m to the ground a couple of times, but the good thing about the E01 is the chances of it breaking down are very few, even after a lot of drops. Just an example: search CPF for E01 being broken which are not alkaline leaks. Then do the same search for those "way...
