    Magic Fire 40W HID 4000-Lumen 4x18650 HID Flashlight

    I have a chamfering tool, but I don't think mine works on artillery. I need to borrow yours :)

    Magic Fire 40W HID 4000-Lumen 4x18650 HID Flashlight

    I have used this 4 nights in a row, and I have dropped it a couple times, left it in 12 inches of snow for 5 mins, run it for almost an hour straight a few times, tossed it in my car and my pack. It's gone through forests, across fields, and up a few hills. So far, I am thrilled with it and have...

    Magic Fire 40W HID 4000-Lumen 4x18650 HID Flashlight

    My light exhibited those symptoms when I accidentally had one of the batteries reversed in the battery carrier, but worked fine once I straightened that out. I got a chance to use it in the snowstorm last night. It is simply amazing when up and running. It felt more powerful than a car headlamp...

    Magic Fire 40W HID 4000-Lumen 4x18650 HID Flashlight

    Ok, just to add some more info. Here's a bit more perspective on the size of the Magic Fire. It's daytime, but I wanted to get some shots of the light beam and cone. I'm using my projection screen as the back ground, and I am not really controlling the distance other than I needed to stay...

    Magic Fire 40W HID 4000-Lumen 4x18650 HID Flashlight

    Hey Rich, First off, I have big hands. I usually get 2XL gloves. In a normal relaxed hold, my thumb just touches my middle finger when holding this light, giving me a solid grip on this beast. It is the thickest flashlight I own, but it feels like it was made for my hand. The gnurling is...

    Magic Fire 40W HID 4000-Lumen 4x18650 HID Flashlight

    The batteries didn't finish charging until after 1 AM last night. I was excited, and got up around 3 AM to try the light with fresh batteries. I put all 4 Ultrafire 3000 mA in the carrier, and went to slide it into the flashlight ,and peeled all 4 labels back on the batteries on the edge of...

    Magic Fire 40W HID 4000-Lumen 4x18650 HID Flashlight

    It arrived. I put the Ultrafire 3000mA batteries on the charger. First impressions. Packaging was minimal. Some bubble wrap and tape, but the light appeared no worse for the wear. When I opened up the package, the light felt solid, well crafted, and really, bluntly elegant. I like the green...

    Magic Fire 40W HID 4000-Lumen 4x18650 HID Flashlight

    According to DHL, mine found its way to Cincinatti at around 5:00 Am this morning. Given the that I placed my order on the afternoon of the 22nd, I would say that the shipping is looking great. It looks like I will probably have it in time for the snowstorm on Thursday, possibly Friday. For...

    Magic Fire 40W HID 4000-Lumen 4x18650 HID Flashlight

    I just ordered one. I accidentally ordered the 5000k version, as that was the default color specified on the radio button. I emailed them back to request a 4300k bulb on it. We'll see how that goes. I asked for EMS shipping, and hopefully, it will get to the US and to Maine by next week. I have...

    Tactical use of strobes: Human tests part II (long post)

    Fun story, and I second the airsoft recommendation! I like the HID placement, and the motion lights. Good advance thinking.
