    Would making lights generally more massive solve overheating and step-down issues?

    I think the idea is. . . . to buy a High Lumen light but only use it at the half or 3/4 intensity mark. Like buying tires that are guaranteed to work at speeds of 150 mph, but you never drive that fast. So, buy a larger light and only use the 1/2 or 3/4 power mode so it will stay on. The Extreme...

    18650 fully discharged in storage and recharged to 3.8v before learning that...

    It would SEEM. . . . that flashlight makers that make flashlights that use high amp/ high amp draw/ batteries, install a venting port/ blow out port/ blow out rubber port in the battery compartment. . . . . so that, over time, or with a faulty cell or low voltage or battery failure, that IF the...

    Bushnell

    I HAVE seen the Bushnell's show up at the big box stores. . . . . . they are OK. (Not what I am looking for. . . . . but still, as the better of the flashlights that hang on pegs, they are OK for everyday use. ) But, Im a POWER NUT and demand over 1200 tested and guaranteed Lumens, that fits in...

    EXTREMELY Rare Lights... Let's See Them!

    About HALF of the photos are either just a little tiny blue and green square. . . and many others are the Cat photo that says: "Photo not found." I've used 2 different browsers . . . but still missing the same photos. What gives?

    Fenix LD41 960

    If the battery voltage is down from "Cool Playing with the Flashlight, which is understandable. . . ") then the Turbo just wont come on after a certain voltage drop. If you are carrying for Self Defense, like I do, I don't use the flashlight at all. . . keeping all reserve power for the Turbo...

    Wow, why in the world do you carry a flashlight with you?

    The 1350 tested lumen tac light I carry in my pocket, as well as no more fear walking at night or early morning. . . . (or going Downtown at night) . . . . I'm guessing that "Anything with eyes". . .attacking Dogs. . . wolves, bears?. . . would be blinded by 1350 lunens and it would GET WORSE...

    Wow, why in the world do you carry a flashlight with you?

    I feel like I am "Licenced to Carry" when I take a walk in the late evenings at 1350 real tested Lumens in my pocket. A beefed up Solarforce L2P Special Edition with a 1300+ lumen drop-in, copper wrap, extra heavy copper wires and high current springs. . . . That and a walking stick. I do not...

    Flashlights in TV shows and movies (Part 4)

    Flashlights have gone so far in the past couple of years that I'd like to see a movie where the sheer BRIGHTNESS of a pocket sized tac light is used to blind the Bejesus out of someone and then just kick them over while they are screaming in pain and the temporary loss of eyesight. Total...

    Flashlight competition. Is there such a thing?

    A flashlight contest would probably need to have Classes: like battery size and weight and be tested with a Lumens meter. I really think a LOT of modern warfare could be accomplished with Really Really Really (that's 3 Really's) Bright Lights ! I know self defense has turned the corner now, in...
