    I think I just found a grave in my yard...! {w/PICs}

    Hi, I've been off CPF for a few months... This thread has me wondering, what is the record for views of a post? This one's up to 12,049 and counting! Oof. Fun thread, though.

    Fenix L0P AAA

    Cave Dave, you and I have a lot in common. I too, carry my L1P this way (when I don't have on a jacket or vest of some sort, with a zip-pocket). In my book, it beats a clip mounted to the flashlight body; if I use a clip and try to EDC my little light 'mostly inside' my pocket I always trash...

    I need a LED Trouble-light...

    Hey Threepio, Was this the light? http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=6970&productId=200320455&R=200320455 Any runtime test yet? Or did you open it at all? Kenski

    The poor flashaholics top 10?

    I'd like to agree on a few particular lights. These ones really spoke to me for Value/Design/Usefulness. And I'd like to mention the Peak Snow 29 LEDs for 5mm mod candidates. They rock, as long as you're driving them gently. Nichia CS gets the vote if you're going to push hard. Kenski

    Hey SuperNinja, How do you like that Lantern as a raw host, for regulated LED conversions? Anyone else have pointers to a similar cheap-but-strong lantern host? Kenski

    On average, how many Lumens meets your needs?

    If I had to choose one level, the Fenix L1P class of lights. In reality, I carry a Photon-clone on my keychain which is fine for 'most applications'. The Fenix in my pocket is just 'mo betta'! I do have brighter lights, but how often do I need to illuminate that hill over yonder? Can't...

    MagLite news, they will be offering LED lights

    I agree. This is almost certainly about economics/competition/maintaining market share, rather than the timing being driven by Mag's engineering for LED flashlights having reached some magic point, or emitters reaching a certain performance level. I look forward to seeing their offerings...

    Who got an LED for Christmas?

    Well, it's this light: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00005V3RJ/104-9672548-0695913?v=glance And it has two AA batteries, not one. So be careful. But I happened to have an LED which was a "equivalent" PR2 3-volt replacement, similar to this...
