    What is your 1st SF?

    My first was the E2e. I now use my A2 & L4 a lot more, but I still like the E2e. This was the light that started the madness. I guess I will stop buying flashlights when I am dead!

    what is your favorite flashlight

    My favorite EDC is: Aleph 2, NG500, CR-2 flared body, Flat top tail cap w/ 10 ohm resistor. My favorite Non EDC is: C3 w/ SRTH & N2 bulb running off 2 X Pila 150s

    Which 2 and 3 cell Incan Surefire would you buy?

    I have the E2E, L4, C2, C3 w/SRTH, and the A2. I just got the A2 and I am very impressed. My lights get a lot of use when I am walking in the woods, and while I love LED's, incand. still is better for some tasks. Based on my lights, I am still a newbie and have only been at this since last...

    Long throw: SureFire L2 or Princeton Tec Surge?

    Re: Long throw: SureFire L2 or Princeton Tec Surg IMHO, the L2 with 2 levels of output is what you should get, but since the Surge doesn't cost that much, Get Both! bignasty

    NG & DB Li-ion Battery Questions

    What is the potential issue with running 2 X JSB R123s in series? Is it damage to the batteries or the LE? Does this apply to 2 X R123 & 2 X Pila 150S and incand. bulbs or just with the DB917 LE? I have been running 2 R123s in a C2 with the P90 and also 2 Pila 150S in a C3 with either the P90...

    NG & DB Li-ion Battery Questions

    I have a couple questions on the use of JSB's R123s and Pila 168s with my 3 LE's. I have searched the forum, but I am still a little unsure. 1) I should be able to use a DB917 TWOK with 2 X R123, correct? 2) The same DB917 TWOK will not run in regulation on 1 X Pila 168s, correct? 3) I...

    Something goes BUMP in the night . . .

    Either a SF C3 P-91 or a SF C2 P-90 (2 X R123's) and of course a 7 shot S&W 686 revolver in .357 mag.

    Surefire E2E

    The E2E was my first quality flashlight and I still love it. It is very easy to add the KL1 or KL4 heads. I have both and recommend both. That being said the dimming after 30 minutes really bugs me and I only use it with the LED heads now. If I had to do it all over again I probably would...

    L4 vs. L2

    I own a L4, but not a L2. The two-stage McE2S tailcap gives the high/low option in a package that is about 1 inch shorter than the L2. For me this was very important. The rechargeable option is just gravy. I am sure one can't go wrong with the L2, I just like the shorter package.

    Advice on Newbie's First Aleph Purchase

    Re: Advice on Newbie\'s First Aleph Purchase Don & Darell - Thanks for the reply that is the information I was looking for. Don, a couple quick questions. Does the flickering on low with the NG depend at all on the resistor value used? i.e. is there more or less flickering with a higher R...
