    Rechargeable options for 16340 in multi cell applications

    Thanks. I did buy some Olights that were supposed to be IMR, but no where on the battery does it say IMR. It says RCR123A, which sounds to me like just standard rechargeable Li-ions. But just wondering if anyone uses standard protected Li-ions two or more at a time? Is this standard practice at...

    Rechargeable options for 16340 in multi cell applications

    So I have a couple of lights that use two 16340 size cells and have been using AW IMR cells because those were recommended at the time as the best chemistry for multi cell applications. AW's are no longer made and not many other options out there these days for IMR. Can I just use two quality...

    Need new O-ring for Draco

    Hey guys, I have one of the original Draco's and my last o-ring bit the dust. Anyone have any suggestions for a replacement? I'm pretty sure these were custom made o-rings. Modamag doesn't seem to be around any more...

    Looking to get a dog!

    Congratulations on the beautiful Aussie! I'm well into my second one and have had an Aussie as my constant companion (see my avatar) for over 25 years and will definitely get another one. Just make sure you give him lots of excercise and something to do so he don't get bored. The only issue with...

    is your wife/girlfriend/significant other supportive of your flashlight addiction?

    My dog is very supportive of my flashlight addiction. It means she gets to go on a nightly flashlight walk, which she likes. I don't have a wife to complain. :)

    6V 2x123 Haiku vs Spy 007?

    There is no finer flashlight than the Spy 007. It is a joy to use. Six levels all individually programmable, and a fantastic little control knob that is super easy to use. For over a year on my nightly dog walk i'd have the Spy 007 in my left hand and a 3v Haiku XP-G in my right which is a great...

    Any amateur astronomers here?

    Tell us more about the scope. Make, model? Size, type (reflector, refractor)? I used to be really into astronomy, still have two scopes, a 12.5" Dobsonian reflector and a 104mm (4") Orion Maksukov/cassegrain on a german mount tripod. Don't use them too much these days, but since I got into...

    18650 3.7V vs cr123 batteries

    In a regulated LED light one 18650 will last much longer than two cr123's because one 18650 has more capacity. Unfortunately an 18650 is usually too fat to fit in most lights that are designed for 123's. In that case, the 17670 size will usually fit. The number represent the size of the battery...

Their focus seems to be replacing light bulbs at homes and businesses with these new emitters but perhaps their new technology will...

    3 Lumens On A Flashlight

    If you find yourself in a situation where 3 lumens or more is too bright in a house, don't point the light at what you want to see, point the light at the ceiling (ceiling bounce) which will result in a nice glow to the whole room without hurting your eyes or disturbing others. I do it every...
