    Convince me to get a twisty

    Ok I'm convinced lol. I'm going to try out a cheaper twisty to see if I can live with it, and if I can, I'll give it to my semi-flashaholic* wife and buy a titanium one. *she rolls her eyes at my hobby, but steals all my lights.

    Convince me to get a twisty

    Hmm, that's what I feared. I'm worried that I'm going to spend a lot of money on a titanium light and have it turn on or fall apart in my pocket. My current keychain light is a clicky, and I have paid it literally zero attention in four years (apart from when I needed to use it) - it just works...

    Convince me to get a twisty

    I'm actually considering something in titanium. I'm a user, not a collector, so I'm ok with splurging on a titanium light because I know I will use it a lot. I got four years out of my Black Cat, and to be honest, I could probably get four more. I don't want to buy an expensive titanium light...

    Convince me to get a twisty

    I have been going through a phase of messing around with dropins for a while, and I have been having a lot of fun with it. However, I realised yesterday that what I really need most is an AAA light for my keychain. The (windowless) bathroom light went out at work, but thanks to the trusty Black...

    Building a new LED mult-function flashlight

    Ok, I'll bite. It would help a great deal if you explained what the flashlight is to be used for. With such unusual design parameters, I assume that this is to be a flashlight for an unusual and very specific task. The intended use will dictate everything about the design of the light. Does it...

    Liteflux LF3XT?

    Is this light still being made? I haven't been a flashaholic for long, and I've been doing a lot of reading. When I saw the LF3XT, it ticked all the boxes for what I was looking for for an EDC. Unfortunately, I seem to be a bit late to the party, because I can't find any retailers with...

    Please Help Me Remember!

    I read a review of a flashlight a couple of weeks ago, and I'm trying to remember what it was, but after over an hour of searching for it, I can't find the article again :( It was a rechargeable flashlight, but it wasn't like the usual utility type ones. It was an edc type, and it charged...

    Q3 -> Q5 WOW!

    I'm pretty new to flashlights, and my first few orders are slowly trickiling in from China. The first one was a cree Q3, and I was astonished at how bright it was until my Ultrafire C3 with a Q5 arrived. It totally blows the Q3 light out of the water. I know a lot of this has to do with the...

    Odd request for an LED flashlight.

    I'm going to second the recommendation for the shake light. I've been using one for well over a year for reading in bed. It's perfect for a low light application such as yours. The one I have has a transparent body, so it's like a lantern as well as a flashlight, perfect for holding sideways...
