    Part of advertising, Maybe? Misleading[?], Absolutely!

    I understand that someone without technical expertise and background could find this misleading. To accuse the vendor to do it on purpose is an other thing. They are technical expert aren't they ? If they specify "turbo" mode, they thought that people would understand that like you don't push...

    Why no adjustable beam lights?

    Used both and concluded that in fact it is not very useful anymore. The TK35 for example has a bright central spot that reaches far away while enough flood to light the surroundings. Adjust the beam power and you get the same effect as a zoomed lens with less mechanical complication and no...

    Clip Screw for Jetbeam TC-R2?

    Expensive non standard crap. Coarse pitch and therefore they don't hold unless you put Loctite ! Better used standard screws, a good source, broken hard disk drive or hobby shops like hobbyking.com

    Clip Screw for Jetbeam TC-R2?

    These screws are standard M2 or M2.5, a good source for all these standard screws (not the exotic US screws !) are portable PCs and hard disk drive. Plenty of them, all length, many with Torx head and in stainless steel !

    fenix pd35 video review

    I like your old fashioned paper roll printer. YOu still find ink cartridge for it ? As for the PD35, to protect the front from damage if dropped or hit against a hard surface, I just put a piece of bike inner tube, folded so there is a round rim lens side. Super glue can help avoid the tube to...

    The Future of Batteries

    Once again, NO SUCH THING AS AN ELECTRIC CAR ! They ALL use some kind of fossil fuel or nuclear energy ! Big problem is to get the electricity generated by these means to your car and store it ! Do the math ! Oh yeah, and drop these stupid inch, pound, gallons, confusing and not suitable for...

    Why is there a short pause before my XML flashlight lights up

    Slow start ? In fact it is because it checks for firmware update ! Turn it off !

    Fenix catalogue 2013

    Stupid catalog, it is in inch ! Who the hell in the 21th century is still using these crappy units ? What is next, specs in foot candle ?, replace the Volt, the Amp ?

    toughen up chinese flashlights!

    So you bully people by calling them racist ! :) Indeed a lot of good products coming from China but a a lot a junk and dangerous products. Just smell the plastics and various cheap imported goods, it is striking ! Often to win the bid, they will start with a good product then lower the quality...

    If you want a tough light, just use reinforced polymers ! Problem is for cooling !

    What is a good thrower?

    Re: longest throwing single 18650 light?? The ONLY country still using "imperial " measures is the US ! Not in science, and high tech of course ! In fact most US firms have converted to metric to produce better and cheaper products that can be sold to the world. And we can see here, the...

    Cheap LiIon charger with Samsung Travel charger for mobile phone (TCH137)

    Too bad ! Anyway, considering how cheap they are ? By the way, most flashlight will die too if you put the battery in reverse. Here you got a lesson for cheap :)

    Amps vs. Watts vs. Volts?

    It would be simpler to explain using complex numbers, integral calculus and differential calculus, vectors etc... :) Inrush current is an issue not only with motors but many electronic apparatus. It is why in case of power outage, so many circuit breakers will trip when power comes back...

    Re: longest throwing single 18650 light?? Could you use metric please, we are in the 21° century you know ! Besides what is the value of a danish "inch" ? :)
