Nitecore EA4 Ballooned/Melted switch Repair Write-Up
I do hope Nitecore is actively seeking a different material for the button cover and will supply the upgraded one to any who encounter a failure or who ask for a replacement for that matter just in case it should happen. So far I have not had mine in a "hot car" but can understand the temps...- dougw

Nitecore EA4 Pioneer review (cool white)
Re: NITECORE EA4 PIONEER (cool white) review I think that marketing pretty much controls how this light is offered at first go around and that likely a subsequent offering of an upgraded model will fix the defects of no low output and a flakey lock out mode (and likely a lot higher price). That...- dougw

Where is the Q 50 ????????????
Zebralight's spread sheet which used to give a date, no longer has any indicated. Remember last year when they said 3rd quarter and now its 3rd quarter a whole year later and still no release date. I wonder if we will ever get anything from them. Correspondence from them 2 Aug 2012 indicated...- dougw

Shortest aaa keychain light?
I've used a Chap Stik cap for two years now on my ITP A3 SS which I carry always on my keychain. It protects the lens from keys and other junk in my pockets, allows enough light to be able to see a key hole and allows walking aroung the house at full dark without running into stuff. Also very...- dougw

What ever happened to the Zebralight Q50?
Yes, Zebralight has pretty much lost my confidence - seems like an outfit that can't get it's s--- together and leads potential customers on wild goose chases about all the good stuff coming - AND THEN NOTHING but constant delays and postponements. It forces me to look at competative stuff as I...- dougw

AAA Zebralight?
Zebralight seems to have BIG problems supplying the lights they supposedly have already developed never mind developing even more! I want or at least wanted a Q50 and a H502 but now am not so sure. I don't think much of a company that tantalizes the marketplace with all kinds of promises and...- dougw

Your Best Homemade Accessories and MacGyver-Like Flashlight Applications
Re: Improvised Surefire Grip Rings from Lowe's Home Improvement..... The white plastic cap from Chap Stik fits the ITP A3 SS EDC perfectly - more to protect lens when in my pocket with keys and such. Transparent enough to provide some light at door locks, etc. but easily removable when full...- dougw

Lumens rating for upcoming Jetbeam PA40
Re: Lumens raing for upcoming Jetbeam PA40 This would be a desirable light if it had a side switch instead of the tail one! Would have purchased the Fenix already if it had side a switch although it could have a better output on high. Looks to me like the Fenix is a copy of the Jetbeam or vise...- dougw

New Zebralight 4 AA Q50!
The 3rd config looks great and retains same reflector dia as the square profile. The 4th config, although a bit small and would be preferable for some; allows for only a smaller reflector. I don't know the ramifications of the two sizes of reflectors but the rectangular profile is surely the way...- dougw
