    LOD Q4 - Arrived 12/24/07

    Does anybody know how durable this colored HA-III coating is? I am patiently awaiting my LOD Q4 and it will be replacing my L0P-SE that has been on my keychain for around a year and a half to 2 years. The L0P-SE is not faring particularly well to the key torture. All corners have metal exposed.

    Anybody have a problem with the UltraFire LiIon charger breaking?

    Same thing happened to me the first time using it. Contact just broke off (Bad weld?) Once I found that the one working side overcharges the Li-Ions(4.27v when it first turns green), it wasn't worth the hassle of getting it replaced.

    Thermal Travel Mug

    You might try Costco. I bought a set of vaccuum sealed travel mugs from them and they work great. Keeps my coffee nice and hot for a few hours. They sell in a set of 2 for around 17.99. Of course since its Costco, they may be gone and might never return. But its definitely worth checking...

    Eastward YJ U2-style Cree reviewed

    Might I inquire to those that have already received this light as to when you ordered it? Tomorrow will mark 1 month since I ordered it and it still has not even shipped. I believe originally my order had even said that the light was among the shipped items. The day before the rest of my...

    Anybody ever build a green pc machine?

    If you are concerned with power saving then go for a laptop. Most are built for low power usage as opposed to desktop pc's. I used a killawatt meter on my wifes Core Duo 1.6ghz laptop 1gig ram 100gig hd w/15.4" widescreen monitor and during web browsing using wireless networking as well as the...

    Cree Nuwai Q3

    My Q3 is my goto mod light. Whenever I get a new generation of LED's to test out, they always first go into my Q3 first. It's exceptionally easy to put a cree p4 in the Q3. I didn't need to mod the reflector or anything. Just an easy star swap and solder. I'd have to say it is about the...

    Assia 1250 mAh AAA and 3000 mAh AA cells

    I ordered a combo 8 AAA and 8 AA pack. All the AAA batteries were good coming in usually around 1.27v a few just over 1v. 4 of the 8 AA batteries were at ~.7v. The 4 batteries at .7v are going to need conditioning as they were on the charger for probably 30 seconds before end of charge was...
