    Review Nitecore EDC23, 2500 lumens, 280 meters

    Nice review, thanks!!! I bought one of these a few weeks ago. It packs a punch for such a small light. Very happy with it. Thinking about the EDC29 now, haha...............

    Review Nitecore EDC29, 6500 lumens, 400 meters

    I recently bought the 23 and am looking hard at the 29. Personally, I really like the availability of supercharged power, even if only for a short time period. I think I might pull the trigger on a new 29! @ro.ma. - great review, thanks very much for all the details! :clap:

    Anything similar to Sunwayman D40A?

    Yeah, I still love these lights. As I mentioned above, I gave away a few of them, and people were blown away. I would like to buy more, just to give away. If you think of anything similar, please post here. Thanks!

    Anything similar to Sunwayman D40A?

    Is there anything out there similar to the wonderful Sunwayman D40A? This light appeared on the market about 10 years ago. I consider it one of my best lights. It uses 4AA batteries and pumps out almost 1,000 lumens. It's very compact. I gifted a few of them back in the day, and every person was...

    Olight i3S

    I will simply repeat what I posted earlier, but will expand it to include ALL of the 30 lights I have ordered so far: The mode is basic and simple; Lo-Med-Hi-Lo-Med-Hi-Strobe. If you shut the light off for a few seconds, then turn it back on, it will start the sequence all over again from the...

    Olight i3S

    The mode is basic and simple; Lo-Med-Hi-Lo-Med-Hi-Strobe. If you shut the light off for a few seconds, then turn it back on, it will start the sequence all over again from the beginning, i.e., Lo-Med-Hi-Lo-Med-Hi-Strobe. I will say again, these are terrific little lights. I was very bummed when...

    Olight i3S

    Oh man, I miss those little lights. I must have gifted over 100 of them, I gave them away like candy. EVERYONE liked them, and people would remember me years later, LOL. Anyway, I just had to find a replacement, so I bought a 10-pack of the ThruNite Ti3 EDC Cree XP-G2 R5 AAA Torch Max120 Lumens...

    Is there a keychain light everyone loves?

    Yeah, this ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I have gifted this light (or similar) to probably two hundred people in the past few years. I buy them ten at a time. Never heard the tiniest complaint. In fact, years later when I see some people they will exclaim, "hey, I still use that awesome little light you gave...

    Olight i3E First Impressions and Black Friday sale info

    I've gifted over a hundred of these Olights (in their various iterations). Everyone loves them. I have some people remembering me mainly because I gave them one of these lights, haha. I bet I've gifted over a dozen in the past 30 days alone. They are simply one of the best little gifts you can...

    Small 1 x 18650

    Yeah man, you are spot on here. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise. Forward-clicky, momentary tail switch (often called 'tactical'), is overall best switch IMO. My EDC (Fenix PD31 with custom tail switch) and all favorite lights are tactical tail switch design, with momentary on...

    Aircraft mechanic needs a new light!

    If you want small light that you can keep in shirt pocket, then get the Preon 2. I have given away a bunch of these to doctors, machinists and auto mechanics, and they all LOVE that light! Of course, I have one for myself too. Amazing power for a 2*AAA light. I gave a Preon 2 to the owner of a...

    Need a light for older person! not sure if this has been asked before...

    You mention fingers not being that great... well, how about a AA light with 'tactical' momentary tail switch?? I have tons of lights and this is definitely my preferred switch. With the tail switch, there's no fumbling around trying to find the side button, which is often minuscule and hard to...

    Newbie waiting and wondering

    Yeah man, this is a fun, harmless hobby. And once you get a few good ones for yourself, then start giving lights to everyone you know. My favorite gift is something like the iTP EOS running on one AAA. I've had people remember me YEARS later because I gave them a flashlight!!!!!!

    Personal Protection Light

    You sir, are a true internet troll (look that up).

    Personal Protection Light

    First off, it's "premise", not "premiss".... And second, your remarks are absolutely uncalled for. Do you never ask for advice? Do you assume yourself to be "impotent thinker and brainless" just because you ask for advice? And third, I think it's quite clear that everyone here is trying to...
