    Put $200 in wrong light - now need to see if I can find the right one.

    Well I contacted the seller from Amazon and he said it was a couple days past the 30 day return period so I must keep the light. He said send it back "at my expense" and he would take care of the Nitcore warranty. I don't feel I mistreated the light so I didn't think I should have to put more...

    Quick question on a warranty return?

    I have a Nitecore SRT-7 I need to drop in the mail today for repair / replacement. I don't have the sellers phone number and I didn't want to wait another 24 -48 hours for him to reply to another one of my emails. He told me to "Please only send back the light for service, not the pressure...

    Put $200 in wrong light - now need to see if I can find the right one.

    Thanks everyone! Yes I started this Ar build and had a $1000 budget. Got started and then realized I wanted to make sure everything was Mil-Spec, tested, and was going to hold up over time. This was something I didn't want to have falling apart and parts breaking on me later down the road. Do it...

    Nitecore SRT7 Help and suggestions. Please?

    Thank you Rick for your reply. I think I got caught up in their advertising and words. Tactical, military grade, titanium coated, stainless steel, water proof, aero grade aluminum, and then a big picture of what looks like SWAT with it mounted to a real AR, and etc. It had the brightness...

    Nitecore SRT7 Help and suggestions. Please?

    Well that's some shady advertising. Who puts a $200 set-up on an airsoft lol? So if I can't get a refund - and I am forced to take a replacement - I should NOT mount it on an AR? My options then are to purchase another light (like to stay with-in $100 range) stay with same size so mount still...

    Nitecore SRT7 Help and suggestions. Please?

    I bought a SRT-7 about 30 days ago. I haven't used it but maybe a total of one hour or less and now the main LED will not work. The color LEDs work but not the main center one. I bought the whole set-up for $120 and I thought from the reviews on candlepower forums this was a good light. I have...

    Batteries for Quark Mini

    I have a few questions about a Quark Mini 123 R5 I just ordered. It is about the batteries for it. I think it will come with a 4sevens battery which I will use until it goes dead. Then I would like to get a couple more primaries just to have as back-ups. I have read reviews and looked at...

    Can you tell me what I am looking at?

    Can you tell me what I am looking at? I was just wondering if someone can tell me how many lumens I am looking at on the iTP A3 EOS when it is on high using the Energizer Lithium L92 batteries. I am just trying to get an idea of how much light is what. I know it says its 80LM but then I see...

    ITP A3 EOS BLACK Q5 LED Upgrade question?

    I will give the little a ITP a try. If im going to loose a head I rather it be on a $16 light rather than a $70 light. I am a contractor and I tend to be rough on things. I have wore a necklace 2 or 3 different times and either hung myself or broke it with in a month. I have never had a watch...

    Secret interest

    I dont hide it either. Just the other day I was on here reading about the Stanley HID0109 HID Spotlight and just knew I had to have one. The next day we were coming back down the highway and as we came up on Lowes, I told her I needed to run in and grab something right quick. I came out with my...

    ITP A3 EOS BLACK Q5 LED Upgrade question?

    I have a small quick question. I have spent the last 3 weeks reading over the forums here trying to find me the right AAA light. I have it narrowed down to about 10 I think. More I hang around here, the more I just want to buy all 10 though. I have been taking in all the information on clickies...
