It just wasn't as good as the Gladius was. I have no regrets though, I got to try out a new light. As I've said before, when I have the money lying around, I'm going to buy another Gladius.

I'm looking for a nice AA light currently and the D10 is on my short list.

How do you personally like the GDP+ vs the Q5? Do you think it's a big difference in real life or just a small difference in usage?

So far I'm very happy with the GDP. It has more throw than my Cree Q5 version, even though it probably has less total output. I like the quality of the beam. From some initial run time tests I've seen it should have longer run times as well, but that's to be expected with less total output, and the low Vf of the GDP. However, it has more throw thanks to the smaller die and slightly deeper reflector.

Tonight I made up a little lanyard for my Nitecore EX10 Cree Q5. I found these little skulls for valve stems at WalMart. They have a threaded hole on the back of the skull, but I drilled a hole through it from top to bottom. I capped the cord with a GITD end like they use on the Nitecore DI lanyard:




Here is the open hole in the back. I might fill it in with something, maybe some GITD epoxy, but I don't want to loose the ability to slide the skull up and down the lanyard.



This is why I want the skull to slide:



I should have made the lanyard about an inch longer, but I can my hand through it:

are the golden dragons still having problems? can someone take some pics of the ex10 and the D10 showing their true size? I am looking for a pocket EDC and I think i rather have thinner + longer than shorter but thicker (might go in the back pocket) thanks!

Just a crapshoot stack of pics from my cell phone. The last pic is a comparo between my standard light I carried for a long time. The one watt NiteIze Minimag and the EX10 GD+

<Minimag - EX10> They were held in the same hand, reason they are so close.
Im blown away to say the least.

Day light pic. :)

Anyone else's pistons turn this color? I understand its because of the nickle plating right? I kinda like it.

Took about 2 hours after I got it out of the box.

I turn carbon steel knives like an onion. :mad:

the only stupid gold I can wear is Thai baht

mint green (or worse)

sometimes when I run into a real prick at the gun show I'll make a point of touching lots of his stuff
45 mins later.......
