    Ever run into non-CPF'ers using premium lights?

    I used to work as a bailiff, and one of our jurors had a Surefire E-series on his belt (don't remember what exactly...it was a year or two ago).

    Show me your patina.

    Is that a stripper clip of 7.62x54r I see? :grin2:

    Li-ion C cells questions

    I'm not sure what a "balancing charger" is. Does a Pila IBC meet that criterion? If not, how much would a balancing charger cost me? Thanks.

    Li-ion C cells questions

    So when I have three 3,300mAh C cells in series, it still counts as 3,300mAh (rather than 9,900mAh)? One other thing: Since I'll be charging these with magnets and clips (since they don't fit in an IBC) can I charge all three of them at once in series, like a battery pack, or do I need to...

    Li-ion C cells questions

    I guess I could just base use off of run time. How long could I run an 1185 off of three li-ion Cs without hurting them? How long should they sit before being put in the light?

    Li-ion C cells questions

    Hey guys, I have a few questions about li-ion C cells: 1: I'd really rather not spend $75 for three AW batteries...how bad idea is it to get these unprotected ones instead? I'll be charging them on a Pila IBC. I'd like to use them anyway, since AW C cells don't fit in an IBC... 2: Will...

    7.4v in a stock G2?

    Can anybody tell me whether or not dropping two 3.7v lions into a stock G2 will fry the (6v) P60 lamp? Thanks.

    "Normal" batteries on Pila IBC?

    Can a Pila IBC be used to charge my "normal" non-flashlight rechargables like AA, AAA, C, D, et cetera. The kind of rechargables you buy at Walmart and put in your radio.

    Is this going to do anything bad?

    Ok, good. You say the P91 draws even more current--is it brighter?

    Is this going to do anything bad?

    So would a Z41 be a good tailcap for this light?

    Is this going to do anything bad?

    Ok, thanks guys. What twisty should I get for <$25? What about a charger? I was looking at the Pila one, but I really would prefer not to spend $50 on one if it's not necessary... How do you think this light will compare in brightness to a P91 lamp (to give me a better idea of brightness...

    Is this going to do anything bad?

    Thanks. Is there an easy way to maintain a steady light level? You can add regulator chips or something like that, right?

    Is this going to do anything bad?

    Hello, I'm a flashlight n00b, so I thought I'd just run this setup by you guys before I fry things: Solarforce L2 1x18650 host Solarforce +1x18650 extension x2 AW IMR 18650 batteries (3.7v each) LF IMR-9 lamp (7.4v) --Is this a good setup for $80? --There's nothing else I need that I'm...
