    Just got back from Target

    Maybe as a Target employee I can clear up a few things. Without going into our organizational and distribution structure or differences in store layouts and sizes, I can tell you that yes, unfortunately the flashlight selection does vary greatly by store. That said, we could put together a...

    Anyone tried Acrylic Balls?

    I'm curious about the acrylic balls sold at the sanwich shoppe. They are claimed to focus light into a very concentrated spot when at the correct focal length. Has anyone tried them, or know how far these must be placed from the emitter?

    Question about Hyper Blaster

    I also just got my hyper blaster just a few days ago. Ours are the very first (I) production run with Edison. My model number is the exact same as yours. The old 1W ones haven't been sold in many months, and since these were preordered in a big batch, I highly doubt it is possible that you...

    Coast Cutlery lights?

    I have only one light from them, and it is the 3 N cell one. I have to agree that I haven't been too impressed with it. The little rubber switch cover only stayed in place two days, and some other sites have reported similar problems. There is a little resistor in the tailcap, but it still is...

    Sold/Expired Important!! Ordering desk now open Great NEW NEWS!

    Re: FS: \"D\" cell O-Sink I got mine last night with the ChemCoat it looks like. They are very nice, and fit perfectly into my black Mag. They won't quite fit into silver of blue, which is good. Once I use NaOH to remove the annodizing, they hopefully will still be tight for good thermal...

    modd'ng starter kit

    Re: modd\'ng starter kit Elektrolumens.com sells them, but it doesn't say what bin they are. Maybe you could email Wayne. He personally answers questions very quickly.

    Re: modd\'ng starter kit Jimmy, Check the BST-lights forum. I just ordered some 3W from eo2oo, and saw he is selling some 5W for $35 delivered. Other people are selling them over on BST also. Check it out. Michael

    Moon Mag :D

    Regarding DD safe levels-- If I put a LuxIII ***K bin DD off 3 D-cells, how long will the LED see more than an amp of current? I just wonder when the batteries will start to die to the point the LEDs are not being overdriven.

    Re: modd\'ng starter kit Mr. Bulk, Why do recomend using very skinny wires? Can a 30 gauge wire handle a 3W Lux DD off three 1.5V cells?

    Where to buy bright white 5mm LED's

    Re: Where to buy bright white 5mm LED\'s Regarding sourcing good cheap 5mm LEDS: superbrightleds.com is okay--they have a very nice selection- in that you can pick the exact viewing angle you want, but their prices are high and shipping too. I've been very pleased with their brightness and...

    Newbie question about resistance

    Welcome- I'm pretty new here too, but I've been putting 5mm leds in things for a year and a half now. I'd love to help you out, so can you please give me a little more info: What is your source voltage? Do you know the forwarding voltage of the leds? (Are all these leds the same?) How much...

    PLEASE HELP the new guy

    I'm new and have just finished skimming the couple hundred posts in this mod forum (you guys have good ideas). I have played around with 5mm leds a bit, but I'm ready for more power- I've decided to try my hand with the great LuxIII. I burned up a gift certificate and got three 3D M@Gs, which...
