    Sold/Expired ZEBRALIGHT CLEARANCE + BONUSES

    Could he have done a better job communicating? Sure. A quick PM to say that it's on the way would have worked wonders; tracking info, doubly so. However, humanity survived for quite some time without 24/7 tracking of stuff in the post; perhaps we've all gotten spoiled by having that level of...

    Bought many $3 Chinese single AA zooms. What am I missing?

    There's definitely something to be said for the SK68 clones, and it's like what they used to say about the Soviet armed forces; quantity has a quality of its own. Buy a bazillion of them at a few bucks a pop, and sprinkle them everywhere you might at some point need a light under some unforeseen...

    【HOT CAKE GIVEAWAY】LUMINTOP LM34C Micro-USB 18650 Li-ion Rechargeable Battery GAW

    Re: 【HOT CAKE GIVEAWAY】LUMINTOP LM34C Micro-USB 18650 Li-ion Rechargeable Battery GAW What Do You Care About The Most When Buy A 18650 ? Above all else, safety. The kids don't get to mess with my "real" torches too often, but knowing that my 18650's are all quality cells with protection makes...

    Sold/Expired ZEBRALIGHT CLEARANCE + BONUSES

    Well, if you're all done crapping on him from a great height, mine arrived yesterday. Or, more properly, USPS attempted delivery at the weekend, and I picked them up from the post office before heading into work. Judging by the label that's on it, it was sent about a week and a half after I...

    How many lumens is actually practical to carry around for an EDC

    +1 on the S1A. The missus uses one for her races; she's doing the marathon readiness series here as usual, and as each race is longer than the last, they start increasing amounts before sunrise to keep people out of the worst of the heat of the day. She needed something that's pretty bright with...

    【GIVEAWAY】LUMINTOP Torpedo 007 New Light GAW!

    In general, that's a nice-looking little torch. I'm not sure about the flame engraving on the gold-plated band, though; that looks a bit cheesy. The tritium vial in the tailcap, though...yummy. Also, it's a little odd that there's no mention of beam colour; there's plenty of mentions that it's a...

    Sold/Expired Price Drop: SC200C2 CUSTOM NEUTRAL WHITE XM-L2 EAGTAC (EAGLETAC) BRAND NEW IN...

    Quick question: which extender is that? I believe there are two; a shorter one to add a third CR123, and a longer one to bump the totals to 4 CR123's or a pair of 18650's. The proportions in the photo suggest the shorter one, but I figure it's worth checking.

    Gearbest giveaway 30.09 - 01.10 (KlarusXT11GT & Manker U11)

    Up until recently, I'd have said the Olight S1A; better mode spacing than the S1 (with an extra level in the middle) and the ability to drop back to an AA, which we usually have more to hand than a CR123. I say "recently", as it was really bought for the missus to carry for her races; the...

    Decent L shape light? Headlamp compatible

    I picked up Imalent's HR20 via one of dazed1's deals, and it's not bad. The beam itself is pretty 'meh' with a significant green tint to the middle of the hotspot, but some of phaserburn's diffusion film fixed that right up; for my use I'd always planned to add that anyway. Since cost is a...

    Trying to identify NiMH (8 mm diam, 53 mm long)

    The closest I can think of is AAAA, which is something like 8x43mm; about right on the diameter, but well off on length?

    Gearbest how to get your items faster (USA) (Italy) (Germany) and others!

    Many thanks for this post; I had no idea this was even a thing. Anyway, I now have three packages that are simultaneously in flight (so to speak) from Gearbest, so I've got a chance to do some comparison, albeit with a very small sample size. The first two orders are from the 4th and 9th of...

    Jeers to Banggood

    I know the rules for Jeers reckon you should try and work things out with the company first, but BG deserves immediate shaming for pulling something like this. What a complete and utter joke. I'm not sure I would touch those cells with a 10-foot pole. There's no way to know how much abuse those...
