What I'm looking for in a flashlight:
1. Incandescent
2. Rechargeable
3. Clicky tailcap
4. Compact
5. I prefer longer clips to shorter ones, no clip at all good too
6. Long time runtime with output like 25-50 lumen
Something like a E2E with a 17670 and a LF lamp for rechargeables
Is there...
There appear to be 2 type of bodies the incan outdoorman came with, one with classic flat sides and then the wider round sides. I have the body with the round sides and I need to know if AW 17670 will fit before I order the battery. Any users please chime in, thanks in advance.
I'm wondering If I have a round body A2, can I just get a 4 flats body to interchange it with the round body to use the same bezel and tailcap? Thanks.
Hi all. I like the way the A2 shines with its white secondary LEDs. I'm looking for that type of shine. Low intensity, floody wide low mode with no hotspot. Is there any other light to duplicate the A2-WH on low? (Maybe with less blue tint too)
I was also wondering which CR123A charger to get. The WF-138 CR123A charger has a switch that allows to select 3.0v or 3.6v. So it looks to me like this charger can charge both LiFePO4s and IMR16340s.
This one I have is #494829 Model FT-PM41 65 lm, there must be more than one Utilitech variant, it wasn't in any box or package just had plastic foil around. Got a nice beam and very bright indeed. Simple click on and off clicky tail switch. Painted black aluminum body.
Has anyone got one of these? They're $2.98 at Lowe's, Lowe's #0494829, take 3 AAA batteries and has this printed near the LED: "CREE MLE YL". Receipt said 65 Lumens, this light has a perfect beam and throw a bigger beam than a typical TIR lens surefire. Anyone know if they're regulated? It's...
Those of you who have been using IMR16340s for years, I'm curious what color LEDs you have? I have the white LEDs and I think they burn bright enough on primaries, I can't imagine what they will do on rechargeables. Would the dimmer YG LEDs be better than white to run on rechargeable cells or is...
Would these not be a good choice for the A2?
AW's LiFePO4

Will they fit inside the A2?
Otherwise I'll just get the AW's IMR16340s once AW can ship it by air.
Can you explain why you would recommend AW's IMR16340 over K2's LFP123As ? Wouldn't the LFP123As 3.2V be easier on the secondary LED's than the 3.6V 16340's?
