    Sold/Expired WTB Pink Surefire 6P

    My wife has lost hers and I really want to replace it with the same light.

    Let's see the beam shots!

    OLight SR90 vs. SureFire M6

    I own both an MZXR-7 M6 conversion light and an SR-90. Completely different lights. There is no comparison as far as throw -the SR-90 blows the SF away. The SF may be a slightly more usable light, but I use them for different uses. The throw of the SR will simply blow you away! There really...

    New 123 Lummi (MiL)

    :bumpit: Just to keep it in the present and to re-affirm my desire for one.

    Sold/Expired Titanium Ra Clicky pocketclips for sale

    I have to agree (even though I'm one wanting for a couple of clips). Mods should just close this thread for lack of interest from the OP. It's just frustrating to have it here.

    olight sr90 or hid?

    I have been accused of exaggerating my comparison of the SR-90 to 35w HID lights and that it would take several of them to equal a 35w HID. I just didn't have the photographic abilities of some here. I am thankful that the evidence seems to back up exactly what I was observing. This is one...

    Anybody own an sr90 AND a DEFT?

    As far as the POB goes, I did just pull it out from behind the seat of my truck -- with no idea of the level of charge. As I look at it now, it only has one light lit up on the battery level indicator. Not sure what the output graph looks like for the POB, but it probably is not up to maximum. I...

    Anybody own an sr90 AND a DEFT?

    I've had an SR90 foe awhile now and used it a few times. Out in the boonies, this light just blows away a compact (sub 35w) HID. It out throws my POB 35w with a HUGE reflector. It has more spill as well, but that doesn't seem to detract from it's usefulness as a searchlight. In fact it makes it...

    Olight SR90

    Back to the OP. I have one of the first SR90's and have compared it to several lights. I'll offer my subjective opinion (no scientific measurements) now: This light throws like crazy! This light has spill like crazy! OK, that's probably not enough for most enthusiasts, so . . . It...

    Sold/Expired Titanium Ra Clicky pocketclips for sale

    I hope you are correct, but I don't think so. I employ about 150 people and if this bill passes today, I already have a plan-b that requires me to lay off (or not replace) about 17% of my workforce. This healthcare stuff sounds great, but I don't make a profit that would allow me pay these new...

    Olight SR90

    OK, but the SST-90 is the size that it is. It doesn't matter what would happen if you cut off part of it. I agree that is has 9x the surface area, but so what? If you could somehow focus all the output from this emitter into the same size and shape beam as an XR-E R2, wouldn't it have to...

    Olight SR90

    So what we are looking at here is brightness/unit of surface area -- not total brightness of the emitter -- is that correct? That doesn't change the fact that the total surface output (in lumens) is greater on the SST90, right? Of course, throw is not just total lumens or even lumens/mm. Throw...

    King of Throw....Who is it?

    We could start separating these lights along all kinds of criteria, but I don't think that would be very useful. The distinction between aspheric and non-aspheric is a logical one due to the inherent and intended beam shape and pattern produced. Maybe we should just note the costs of the lights...

    Olight SR90

    And it shows just how much spill the SR90 really has. Look at the extreme right edge of the photo. I own this light and can say that it is awesome in it's output. But just remember that the thing is huge. It is a great searchlight that rivals and even surpasses some smaller HIDs; but you're not...

    King of Throw....Who is it?

    I own 2 of the lights talked about here (MZXR-7 and SR90) as well as a Boxer 24w, Stanley HID and POB 35w HID. The SR90 puts out a sh!tlo@d of light! It seems to out throw my Boxer, but has huge amounts of spill as well. Anytime you see a light with a light-saber like beam, the spill looks poor...
