    Diffuser for Zebralights?

    I like my ZLs since they are so small and minimal. I thought about modding a diffuser from another light to fit, but even just a slight bit of protrusion annoyed me, especially having it in my thin hiking pants pocket - or I'd worry about it getting ripped off putting it in or out of tight jeans...

    OE Vehicle Lighting That Makes You Go "Ugh"

    This is really annoying to me, and yeah it seemed to be the Caddys I notice - so many other LED lights out there that appear fine. And it's very distracting, that is the main issue. And not distracting in a good way, like the strobe on a snow plow (although lately the new ones in Ohio are...

    To wear a headlamp or not to wear a headlamp . . . that is the question!

    That is the nice thing about Zebralights and similar, they are both headlamps and hand-helds just pop em out of the headlight band. When I am hiking I use trekking poles, so hand-held isn't an option. One disadvantage of a headlamp hiking is that when the light source is at eye level you loose...

    How do you program a Zebralight Main Level to be a Sub-level?

    Agreed, it is not possible to do with the UI. Low, Med, and High are set by ZL. You can then customize a secondary Low, Med, and High yourself. I wish the main modes were programmable but there is only so much you can do with a single button UI. ZL has really crammed a bunch of features into it...

    To wear a headlamp or not to wear a headlamp . . . that is the question!

    That sounds rather silly. The difference between headlamp and flashlight in some cases is merely the attachment point (like Zebralights). Point the light more downward and not into folks eyes, and dim it to the point of just being adequate. Nothing that can't wait until sunrise? What if you...

    Japanese Vs Chinese Eneloop Cycle Testing Results

    FWIW, I purchased both normal (white) and high cap (black) versions of Amazon basics AA and AAA LSD and all 4 versions are made in Japan. Break in on the Maha C9000 looks good with all cells slightly higher than rated so far.

    ZebraLight Mods

    I tried both the standard and deep carry ones from 4-Sevens and neither worked for crap. Useless. Clip would come off with fairly minimal pressure, and wouldn't even secure the light in my pocket anyhow - there was actually a gap between the clip end and the flashlight body, big enough that it...

    Japanese Vs Chinese Eneloop Cycle Testing Results

    The amazon branded ones have only ever been sold by amazon itself as far as I am aware. Return should be amazon only, and if the product is not as described then it should be a simple click of a few buttons, print out free return shipping label, and drop it off. Unless I'm missing something...

    Japanese Vs Chinese Eneloop Cycle Testing Results

    Ok so I havent bought batteries in over a year and now I find out this when I go looking. But I'm confused, amazon still indicates both thier white and black amazon basics AAs are made in Japan. Are they lying? Will they say made in China when they actually come? I assume if the product does not...

    Zebralight H600 Mark II coming August 2013!!!

    Wow did they make the original H600's really stiff? I thought the H52w was very stiff compared to all my other zebras! But my H600 II and H52w do have the exact same switches it seems, so if your happy with the H52 then the mark II should be the same.

    Lego-ing 47's Quarks: 2 lights can become...

    Thanks, my motivation was that I just recently learned how to use layers in the GIMP, so I've been playing around with it, learning how to do HDR multi exposure images and stuff like that. Got the idea to just take a pic with each combo sitting next to each other and then open all the pics as...

    !!POST YOUR CUSTOM LEGO'D LIGHTS!!

    I just posted this pic out in the main flashlight forum but guess it might go here too. I dont have enough parts to have all of these simultaneously but at any given time I can make 2 complete lights of any of these combinations: That multi exposure image was made from just these two lights...

    12. With the help of one extra body tube. My first real powerhouse light was a Quark-X AA2. Being strictly an AA format guy at the time, I was blown away what that light could do a couple years ago. And its still pretty dang bright to me today, even now after I've acquired a couple brighter...

    The XTAR B20 Is The Best 18650 Light You Can Buy Per Dollar. Period.

    While my favorite 1x 18650 is my Zebralight H600w MkII, and few lights even have the features I want, I must admit for the price the XTAR does look awesome.

    ZebraLight H502 XM-L

    If your certain you're in those two modes, then I'm not sure since in the few years I have had Zebras the very few times I've depleted a cell down to medium-low I've always swapped cells, and my 502 becomes to dim for most things under medium anyhow. Its quite possible the light starts acting...
