    High Lumen Pocketable Floody Malkoff

    You know, the more I read his email, the more I think you're right. It will probably be a hounddog style head. Well, I guess we have a short wait to find out! I interpreted his email as there being two different options - slim head and hounddog head. But I think I misread it. Anyways, we shall...

    High Lumen Pocketable Floody Malkoff

    Interesting idea. Not sure on the M91Ts. Also, update for everyone: Gene told me today that they are releasing the new Wildcats next week. He says 1000 lumens OTF from a single 18650 on an MD2 body. So, that essentially solves my question - high lumens and floody, while also being pocketable...

    High Lumen Pocketable Floody Malkoff

    Thanks for the replies everyone. Grizzman, I actually have tint/CRI in my “unimportant” category. I should probably have put runtime into a “somewhat important” category. Thermalguy, your suggestion of the Wildcat makes sense given the parameters I posted, but I do agree that the runtime is...

    High Lumen Pocketable Floody Malkoff

    So, based on the runtime thread by Infernl, the output for the M91B on a single 18650 gives around 600 lumens (for the 5000k version) or 500 lumens (for the 4000k version) to start, and tapers down as time passes. The M61HOT on a single 18650 gives a regulated 740 lumens for over an hour. It...

    High Lumen Pocketable Floody Malkoff

    For the Wildcat on an MD2, why two 16430s and not two 18350s? Also, regarding the M91B, the output is reduced when run on a single 18650, no?

    High Lumen Pocketable Floody Malkoff

    Would you think the M61HOT or M91B would be better? I've been looking at the M91 thread and at the Malkoff Runtime thread, and it seems that the M91B gets ~around~ the same lumens as the M61HOT when both are run off of a single 18650. Of course beam pattern will be different, especially if I...

    High Lumen Pocketable Floody Malkoff

    Hello, I am looking for a high-output flood light while still being pocketable. What is important to me: 1) Fits in a standard pants pocket (so, MD2 or smaller, and probably an MDX 22.3 or 16.5 Head) 2) Floody as possible. 3) Most lumens possible. 4) High-low switch 5) Rechargeable What is...

    Malkoff Runtime Graphs - CR123/Alkaline Comparo

    Re: Malkoff Runtime Graphs - Ongoing Adventure Thanks so much for all of this information - extremely useful! Question on your M61HOT graphs - are those with the most recent update to the M61HOT driver? On Gene's site, it shows an output of around 750 in the specs (whereas your graphs show...

    Sold/Expired CLOSED Malkoff M91BN 5000k Dropin or M61 219B (CONUS)

    CLOSED - decided on something else. Hello, I am looking to purchase one of the Malkoff M91BN 5000k dropins that were released on a limited run a few months back (from the groupbuy). Also interested in an M61 219B dropin (Illumn is all sold out). Price is negotiable. Thanks! Edot

    Malkoff M91

    Would you happen to know the new specs off the top of your head? I emailed Gene and he said that a single 18650 would work with the M91B, but would reduce output. What kind of lumens / candela / runtime are people seeing with a single 18650 and this driver?

    Malkoff M91

    I think I must be misunderstanding - the M91B's specs per Malkoff's site say "The input voltage is 5.5 - 12 volts. Below 5.5 volts it will drop out of regulation. Below 5 volts it will begin to flash and below 4.5 volts it will shut off." Yet it seems like people are able to run this dropin...
