    got a RMA from nitecore

    Yes, that's correct. Be sure to only ship the light itself and keep all the other accessories.

    18650 Voltage Flickering above and below 4.0V

    Last night I put my Olight S20R baton with Thrunite 3400mah Protected 18650 on the olight charging dock. When I checked on it this morning the dock was blinking red instead of solid green. The dock shows solid green with a fully charged Samsung 25r loaded into the light. When I went to measure...

    Head twisters.....Armytek Eagletac

    Re: Armytek Viking Pro v2.5 XM-L2 T6 or Eagletac g25c2-11 t6 I only have an armytek predator which is essentially identical to the viking. But I can at least attest to its great build quality. The light feels very solid. Has awesome grip due to armytek's unique matte anodizing and is very...

    Single Cell EDC w/ separate mode change, pocket clip, other specifics

    I really like my Nitecore SRT3 for edc. It has a sturdy clip that is screwed on to the body. Bezel down. Magnetic ring to select any mode before turn on and dial in the perfect amount of light.

    SRT7 reliability

    I bought the SRT3 first and that has seen some rough action. The worst being bouncing down a flight of 20 or so stairs. I haven't abused the SRT7 too much but it should stand up to some good abuse. You can find videos on youtube where they take it diving and also subject it to pressure tests...

    Nitecore

    Nitecore makes many throwers. Look at the different specification on their website. The ones with a higher range and higher amount of "cd" will reach further and have tighter beams. The rest of your decision comes down to exactly how much light you want down range, how much light to the sides...

    Belt Light For Police Bike Duty

    I own the Srt7. Having the magnetic ring is great and it's hard to use another UI once you've gotten used to the variable ring set-up. I also personally think the strobe mode is fantastic on this light. I think it would be great for almost all of your uses. The only area where it might fall...

    What did you use your flashlight for today?

    Used it to check under tables at the restaurant for left-behind belongings. People always leave stuff behind; cell phones, scarves, purses. I usually run outside when I find something, another use for the light to signal a car if need be. One time I found a purse, I ran to the group that had...

    How do O-rings work? Do all manufacturers use standard sizes and materials? Can I buy generic o-rings in the appropriate sizes or is it important to source them from the manufacturer?
