    HDS High Noon Second Run interest thread

    Glimmer, it was on his site. Many in this thread "pre-ordered" it from his site. Kgp is referring to it being removed after being there for quite awhile.

    Lights You Want Me To Mod

    I'd like to see an 18650 headlamp, with driver VN, and a high CRI option. Frankly, there is crap all on the market for high CRI headlamps (90+), and I'd prefer the simpler programmable drivers available. I see that Vinh does an Acebeam H20, but no high CRI option. Headlamp users want color...

    What are the farthest throwing EDC flashlights?

    I've recently been on the same quest as the OP, finding a good "EDC thrower" as the last time I looked was something like 5 years ago. My definition for "EDC thrower" changed to being a good single 18650 thrower. For a pocketable light, I much prefer smaller than 18650; 18350 and 16340, so I...

    Sold/Expired === Drake / Draco Payment === (PART 3)

    Ok.. well damn. I guess a DMM should be part of one of the packages ;) Could you recommend any to me? Flukes seem to go for 100+ and I don't know anyone with a fluke so I can't exactly test the accuracy.

    Sold/Expired === Drake / Draco Payment === (PART 3)

    Just quoting you to make sure that question isn't missed. I have a secondary battery question though. I've never dealt with unprotected rechargeables before. For those of you who have a draco already, is it easy to tell when you should be recharging the battery? I don't have a multimeter, and...

    A Bit of Buying Advice

    I agree with this. It looks like the Cree just doesn't have as much throw as the standard A2, but I think the Cree is producing far more useable light (as in spill). Apples and oranges.

    How effective are torches against aggressive dogs ?

    Animal cruelty to dogs? Sounds fun. Count me in. Oh wait, what were we talking about?

    Sold/Expired === Drake / Draco Payment === (PART 3)

    From what I see, the complete drake does not come with accessories like the charger, etc. Just the light. The drake standard comes with the drake light, a charger, some batteries, etc. The premium includes turbo head, a AAA battery tube and a few extras. The combo premium comes with a battery...

    White LED Characteristics

    Thank you for that. It very nicely explains the characteristics we've come to expect from our yellow phosphor + blue led = white leds that are in our lights. It also helped me understand the low colour rendering ability of the white leds. The testing that the author performs on angle of...

    A Bit of Buying Advice

    For LED: On the expensive side, I believe that 50 pounds will get you either a Pelican LAPD (when available from battery junction), a Lumapower MRV (Actually about 70 pounds) etc, Lumapower D-Mini etc. These do not run off of cheap batteries though. On the cheaper side (for batteries as well)...

    Sold/Expired === Draco Reservation/Payment === (PART 2)

    It will remain around my neck until the day someone learns the correct spell to enchant an even brighter flashlight that's just as small. Thanks for the info :)

    What camera are you guys shooting with?

    Leica M2 and M6. Summicron 35mm and 50mm. Oh wait, beamshots? I don't own a digital camera :D

    Why did you lube it btw? Did you feel that it wasn't smooth enough? Should I be thinking about doing this as well? :)
