    Now Olight charges their customers in china dollars?

    I dont know. I assume they convert the currency which is why they charge the 'foreign transaction fee'. But maybe there could be another reason. Only time a credit card has ever done that before is when I have made a purchase with a foreign company in their currency. But maybe it is when the...

    Now Olight charges their customers in china dollars?

    I have made multiple purchases over the years from the olightstore site. Maybe I just havent noticed this before. But I made a relatively small purchase on their big sale they just had and happened to look at my credit card bill. There is a foreign transaction fee for the Olight purchase...

    Anything as good as Deoxit Gold but cheaper?

    Can anyone provide a link to the deoxit you guys are using? I looked and I see various sprays, some small bottles with brushes, and other packaging. Just wanted to know what specifically you guys are using.

    Zebralight SC700d 21700 XHP70.2 90+CRI

    At least you got a printed label. I keep looking at my order on their site and it just says 'New' as order status. I really thought I got in early enough for the first round of shipping. Otherwise I would have just waited till one of my vendors I frequent had them instock.

    Zebralight SC700d 21700 XHP70.2 90+CRI

    Not new. Check out the date under my user name. Less than a year newer than you But it I know what you mean. You can be safe with the correct procedures and buying good cells. But I like to have a little back up to my procedues just in case. Probably overkill to be so cautious.

    Zebralight SC700d 21700 XHP70.2 90+CRI

    My biggest concern is the fact ZL mentions only flat top UNPROTECTED cells will fit. Not sure if that will always be true. But being much more comfortable with protected cells, that may be a deal breaker for me personally. I do do want this light though.

    The clip only goes in the groove near the tail cap per the pictures on ZL’s site. Unless they change it in production models.

    Cleaning battery corrosion out of a light with baking soda

    I've electronic contact cleaner in the aerosol spray can available at most auto parts stores. I had a obd2 scanner that had a few AA's left in it by the buddy I got it from. Used the electronics cleaner and it cleaned it up perfectly. It also evaporates as quick or quicker than alcohol.

    S1 Baton will not turn off moonlight mode.

    Just to add to this. It wouldn't shut off so I unscrewed the cap a few turns. I just tightened it and was off. So so I cycled through the outputs again making sure not to go into the timer mode. Turned it off which it did go off. As I sat there about 30 seconds later it turned back on into...

    S1 Baton will not turn off moonlight mode.

    I got a regular S1 and a polished titanium S1 as edc lights. When I first got the regular S1 I thought I noticed it on moonlight output when it was sitting on a counter but discounted it that maybe I left it on by accident. The light had a primary battery in it and the other day it was...

    I need your help CPF! Love to get your feedback on my Titanium Carbon Fiber Light

    I have no dog in this fight as they say. And would only potentially be a customer for this light as I already have numerous that have similar size and outputs. And I am a function over form guy most of the time and dont need to have a dozen of basically the same thing. I have to wonder if...

    Can you recommend a light? Working on cars.

    Thanks for all the info everyone. @celticcross. The e25ue is the one that got me thinking about this. The pictures in the promo material on their site shows a good hot spot. As geobruin said above, that diffuser may be a good option to expand the light to make it a true dual purpose light...

    Can you recommend a light? Working on cars.

    I have a number of lights that technically work. Zebralight SC600, SC600 II, some other Zebralight models like the headlamp that runs on single 18650 (don't recall model now), and others. But I thought there may be a better fit. I already have a couple headlamps so I am good there. Looking...
