    HDS Systems EDC #22

    Are modern LEDs not capable of giving off pure white light without a shift in tint/color? Would a beam from an incandescent bulb along with the rest of these look different? From my own night time use experience, the 219b r9080 4500k is a bit too cool/pink, the 219c 4000k has been really nice...

    Titanium Two ... Electric Torch-a-roo

    Y'all got any up to date pics on how those bronze lights are looking? The bronze lights are even more rare than the titanium ones. I still love my ti, no smell and no patina, always nice and shiny. Wondering how they're handling the hotter/wetter weather with their patinas.

    I'm almost always glad to be proven wrong. It's humbling and reminds me to think a bit before I speak.

    HDS Systems EDC #22

    I go through life speaking out of my *** with the confidence that I 100% know what I'm talking about. I am often wrong. Probably going to look to sell my 4000k 219c rotary. I carry the titanium with me everywhere and the 219c is gathering dust. Edit: wishing I went with a 4000k led for my...

    I don't know how I made the mistake of thinking France was that small, my bad. I must've been thinking of some other country. There's a few(23 in Europe according to wikipedia) that are smaller than NY though.

    50k in NYC is low(still doable), the price to live really drops outside the city though, and the state itself is bigger than the entire country of France.

    Was playing around with my lights, the lows on the 219B SW45K are WAY lower than the 219C light I have. Anyone know why this is? Is the 219b able to go lower than 219c?

    HDS 16340 INR Batteries LiNiMnCoO2

    According to the tests on the site previously mentioned, Vapcell INR16340 800mAh (White): 746mAh @1A HDS Systems INR16340 700mAh (Red): 690mAh @1A That's the max current HDS lights draw, right? The difference grows slightly as the Amps decrease. Is there any reason to grab one over the other?

    HDS 16340 INR Batteries LiNiMnCoO2

    Those are way too long, 36.3mm if I remember correctly. A regular 123 cell is 33.6mm. I tried them once and the fit was way too tight for comfort. If you look at https://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?376614-Test-Review-of-Efest-16340-850mAh-(Black)-2014 the mAh is closer to 600...

    HDS 16340 INR Batteries LiNiMnCoO2

    Thanks Hogo, safety is definitely a concern. I live in a damn tinderbox and charge near my bed, I don't need anything catching fire. Once the batteries are on your site I'll definitely give them a look. I've been using the Ti rotary near every day since it came and the Duracell 123 is still...

    Any clue how these will compare to these Fenix 16340 batteries?

    Titanium Two ... Electric Torch-a-roo

    I carry and use my expensive watch/phone/shoes/wallet/clothes every day might as well carry and use my expensive light. I wouldn't have bought it just to keep it on a shelf. I'm going to take care of it just like I take care of everything else I own.

    Titanium Two ... Electric Torch-a-roo

    Something funny about the knurling on these last run of special metal lights. They all seem to have a small knurling imperfection on the indented section of the light, around the 5th diamond down(if you count them side to side). You can see a small change in the light in my picture above, and...
