    Titanium CR123A longevity

    There recently was a thread on older BatteryStation cells and their (lack of) longevity. Sort of belies the whole purpose of having a 10 year shelf life. Well, I didn't have any old BS cells (have new ones since they're currently manufactured in the U.S.) but I do have a boatload of Titanium...

    Westinghouse 4424 bulb query

    Are the Westinghouse 4424 bulbs (aka the M*g35 bulb) and the Osram 64432s interchangeable? They have equivalent "alternate order codes" i.e. 35T4 but the Osram is much cheaper. Is it a less robust bulb? Can it handle the typical overdrive required for a M*g35? I was going to place a...

    MAHA C808M charges CBP1650s

But, I can't seem to make my mind up. Is there anyone out there (Kiessling, perhaps?) who has both and may...

    NexGen750

    After enjoying my McLux PD so much, I decided to purchase an Aleph 1 from the SandwichShoppe. Today it arrived. It's the Aleph1 head with the NexGen750 LE (Lux III UX1K). Now, as far as I can tell, I can only use primary CR123A cells with this light? The standard RCR123A li-ions that come off...

    Best headlamp for night-time bbq'ing

    Because this is California, we can barbeque pretty much all year round. But, winter bbq'ing in the dark is a little annoying. I have been using a RiverRock headlamp from Target and it's ok, but I would much prefer a _wide_ even flood. The central blue hotspot bothers me and reduces it's...
