That sure looks a lot like a P60 compatible head. Just sayin...
It doesn't say anything about the potential use of 2AA in an emergency as I find that to be a very useful feature.
Maybe it can still run with 2AA, but not with the the turbo mode of 860? Anyone with more technical & electrical knowledge can chime in on my guess?
Sounds good, mine said the same thing. I can wait that long...just barely!!I agree with everyone that 65 lumens is still a lot on low, but I didn't buy this bulky massive thing for sneaking around in the dark, that's what my H51, H502, LD12, LD22, Photon II, etc etc etc is for!Just ordered one from a vendor, used CPF2012 coupon code, total came to $66.39 after discount. Says I should get it Dec 3, not sure though b/c it says ships within 1-2wks. Either way, WOOHOO!
Interesting that the Micro(?) setting is 65 lumens! :shrug:
Don't have a aa light yet. This may be my first. I was curious if any knew what the output would be on alkaline batteries. Good to know in case of power failures. Im guessing it would be significantly lower lumens as well as run times. Any help or guesses would be appreciated.
pretty tempting light, i just dunno if alkaline can keep up with the power demand to create the output, but i am sure lithium can do the job. Its crazy how in just one year or so my bc40 is out powered by a little light powered by regular old AA batteries, and only 4 of them too
For emergencies, I keep a few packs of ultimate lithiums around. They last longer than alkaline, can handle a higher load, and don't leak (at least, I have never heard of them leaking).
