    Quad or TikkaPlus?

    Got a quad that had too much blue in the leds. I modded it with Nichia CS CO leds and now have a beautiful warm-tint beam. The Quad is first-class and has some of the best waterproofness available in the headlamp universe. A-Plus. The Quad tactical is also kinda nice if you like to red(or...

    Just ordered a new PT Corona headlight

    I have owned a Corona for several years and like it quite a bit. Some folks don't like the Corona because they feel the regulation is not topnotch but it works fine for my purposes. My Corona had the old leds which I replaced with Nichia CS CO leds. This has resulted in a vast improvement in...

    No rechargables in the Corona!

    I have used NIMH in my Corona w no problems. I modded this Corona by replacing all leds with Nichia CS Co leds. The brightness is about 3X. It's a virtual wall of light. Very nice and very functional.

    Fenix L1P substitute? ($30 max)

    I bought one of the original L1P lights and it's been in use every single day for the whole time. Can't remember now- 4 or 5 years now. It still works just like new.:) Only problem is my wife has taken a liking to it....and I have been less than successful in getting her to give it up.:(

    Best head lamp

    PT Quad. Get it on Ebay for around $21. Rugged, bright, multi-levels, superior waterproofing, reliable, light. Only drawback is AAA batteries- however the low level is adequate for almost everything including trailwalking.

    Princeton Tec EOS II?

    A word of warning about an Ebay seller who is supposedly offering the new EOS 50 lumen 3 level headlamp for $25 shipped. I just recieved one of these. It does not seem to be new 50 lumen model. In fact, it seems to be the old 25 lumen EOS. The light levels and beam pattern are identical to an...

    KL1 driver what to do...

    I did this mod with a USVOH and the original optics. The hotspot becomes wider/rounded and the light intensity multiplies. I was not having much success with Mcr20 in making sure that the KL1 head was tightly sealed against moisture so decided to go with tyros optic. This thing throws a...

    G2ZL - Great by the bed led light

    I have the G2Z with 750ma Malkoff dropin. Very nice rig. Well balanced and nearly indestructible. The ultimate bump in the night light. The only criticism is that it doesn't have a low beam for navigating around the house to check things out.... The output can only be described as a light storm.

    Ra Twisty or Clicky as a next purchase?

    I have had my Ra Twisty for a month of daily usage. I own a wide range of lights but find that this light is probably one of the best designed of them all. Very happy with the Ra Twisty!:twothumbs

    Upgrading an Arc AA?

    Millermods has done some nice work with Arc AA. I've got a Millermod Arc AA with a SWOH Lux1 and 2-stage board. The high is about 250ma and the low is 50ma. The low is amazingly bright- enough to walk a woods trail on a dark night. The mod is cosmetically perfect.
