    Looking for bulb recommendation for a 3 x r123 mag 2C

    Been out of the flashlight loop for a long time, and found a few maglights in my garage. One is that old simple mod of 3 x cr123 and a different bulb (forget which but just higher voltage). The spring is cut and there's a rubber hose spacer. I'd love to be able to buy different bulbs or some...

    buying an x300....can I use 3v r123's?

    Plan on giving it lots of use....will AW's "lifepo4" r123's (3.0-3.2v each) fit, and if so, will the light be ok with the possible .4v extra?

    SF weaponlight questions

    I ask because I know some people have modded x200's, and I'm wondering if I can have someone build what I'm after, and what the best host would be.

    SF weaponlight questions

    -do the x200 or x300 heads interchange with an e-series head? -any of the heads (weapon or E series) use a circuit that can take 2xr123's? thanks in advance.

    Couple weaponlight questions

    OK, while on the subject, any great mods for any weaponlights? A cheap boost in power one way or another? Wondering what the choice of flashoholics would be.

    Couple weaponlight questions

    OK, in the market for a light, or possibly light/laser unit for a G23. First, I would not consider non-LED. second, I would really only consider something with a possible grip-activated pressure switch (SF, SL, and?). Third, if it can work, or be modded to work with r123's, all the better. I...

    KL4 mod suggestions?

    Exact same setup. KL4 on FB1 and KL1 on FB1, both powered by a single of AW's blue-wrapped 3.7v r123's. Only the replacement head fried or broke, the original was sent in for other reasons. Thanks for the responses.

    KL4 mod suggestions?

    i almost specified that i never ran any head on 2 cells of any type, never mind rechargeable, but i thought that part was semi-clear. To repeat, only ever one cell. i'm not sure what part fried, or came loose, of whatever. not sure. just wanted opinions on a cree upgrade, or sell it, or what.

    KL4 mod suggestions?

    first one didn't die, but was in a motorcycle accident (aka gouged badly), and combined with years of hating a pukey tint, i sent it in. The replacement was an awesome head, but went dead within 2 weeks like I said. To answer the question, i run nothing but R123 (4.2V) 1-cell lights, so there...

    KL4 mod suggestions?

    After waiting 6 months for a replacement KL4 head from SF, I got a nice bright white one. After 2 weeks, it pooped out. Dead as can be. I've since received my 2 P2D's, so I need to figure out what to do with the KL4. -Sell it as is for a loss? -Wait another 6 months for a replacement? (stock...

    Brightest 1 CR123 Mini LED?

    Been outta the light loop a while, but isn't the KL4 only something like 60-70 lumens, not 100? I EDC a TW4, but am keeping my eyes open for something with the same power, but in a more versatile beam (aka more throw, but still sidespill).

    Best of the Best

    Good thread, but go for "best buy" in each category. Assuming the lights are divided by battery type and number, then simply list the best ones (value, as in performance and quality per dollar) for different price ranges within each category.

    KL4 on a vital gear body

    I've been using the blade style one (FB1) for about a year with a KL4. Did a fix for contact and haven't had to touch it yet. Much smaller, and the clip can easily be tightened (undo 1 screw and flip it upside down then secure and bend, then turn the clip back to normal position). Also, the E1e...
