    Do you carry a flashlight during the day?

    I carry my Muyshondt Aeon on my keyring —*and I always have my keys. Mostly comes in handy at night when I forgot to grab an additional light, but daytime calls for light sometimes as well :)

    Nextorch New Star - Impressions/Review

    So, I couldn't help myself…*I kept fiddling with the switch and I finally did get it to pop off…* I didn't really number this in the best way. So, 3 is a plastic bit which mates with 2. It just fits very tight, and keeps the switch held on. 1 is a spring which I pulled out a bit for the...

    Nextorch New Star - Impressions/Review

    I'm very much interested in the K1 as well. I think that it and the Magic Max are probably going to join my New Star at some point. I know the Magic Max is quite outdated, but a CR2 light with a clicky? Even if it is a reverse, count me in… Yeah! I actually think I may have misread the...

    Nextorch New Star - Impressions/Review

    Today, I find a package in my mailbox, what's inside? New light! The NexTorch New Star. NexTorch, I feel like they don't get all that much talk. But when somebody does mention their lights, the reaction is quite positive. They seem to be on the high end of the Chinese lights, something like a...

    Backup LED Flashlight

    My EDC is the Muyshondt Aeon. As I don't really lead a dangerous, light-hungry lifestyle, EDC for me basically serves as backup - for the sun, the subway lights, the elevator lights, whatever. At night, I carry an E1B/Backup as my primary, the Aeon then becomes my backup light. I usually have...

    Your Next Conquest: Now and Tomorrow Edition

    Last was a while ago, some Romisen or other… Next would be the NexTorch New Star I just ordered from Going Gear. Already shipped, so I'll be putting this thing through its paces soon… Future? Going all out on a Ra Clicky, once I get the funds.

    Do LED Flashlights make you happy?

    My priority is definitely in being prepared, having the right tool for the job etc. But I will say that in a world that feels like everything just degrades into cheaper and cheaper simulacra of what once was, sometimes a good tool is more than a good tool. Having something that feels solid, well...

    What P60 drop in with 1- 123A battery?

    I believe you're correct that you'll need M30/M31… The '3' vs '6' lines up with the Surefire model naming, which lines up with the voltage (approx. 3v from 1xCR123A, 6v from 2xCR123A, 9v from 3xCR123A…). Can't help you on runtime, as I don't (yet) have one myself, but at least you're headed in...

    Compact lights: CR123 vs. CR2

    Would love to see the values calculated for Muyshondt (Aeon vs Nautilus)… Anyone? I have the Aeon, and while I have used some of the smallest CR123A lights, that extra bit of shrinkage in the CR2 makes it the largest format I personally would consider for a keychain light. Wider than a AAA...

    Runner's Light

    Do you specifically want a flashlight that you'd hand-hold and run with? Because if not, perhaps wearing a Glo Toob Lithium might work? 360º, various flash and steady modes, runs on a CR123A. Think it would suit your needs pretty well…

    New Nitecore EZ AA

    Dang! I was planning to snag up some EZs in the future, but not digging the lack of brass, the lack of tripod hole, or the new UI. Guess I'll be buying from the Marketplace instead… I too don't really think this sort of UI is exactly 'EZ,' but hopefully it works out for them.

    I figured out how to make my Quark malfunction!

    Am I really the only person who finds working in ASM far easier to manage than high level code? I think there's something to be said for having such a limited instruction set…*I'll take ANSI C over C++ and ASM over ANSI C any day! Well, okay, not any day, it clearly depends on the task at hand...

    the Micron 30 (/w Glock 30)

    I'm not a gun person by any means… but that's a nice setup, I love the clean, modular nature of the 'rail,' and that looks spectacular.

    Is this the smallest mass produced LED light out there ?

    Re: Smallest mass produced LED light out there ? Looks like that funny little thing can actually be switched on/off… What sort of switching mechanism are we looking at?

    Introducing the Muyshondt Aeon *XP-G Edition*

    Wow, aren't these notoriously difficult to crack open & mod? Beautiful beam there, I love the Aeon but am a little bit nauseated by its greenliness…

    The "House" Flashlight

    I have no house light right now…*Of course, I have no house (live in an apt. complex), so I don't need all the house light duties of, say, going out to fetch wood, etc. That's not to say I don't want some sort of house light - and I think that my next investment (ha!) will be the TK45, as a good...

    Look what you made me do!

    While we're playing this game, what's the 2nd from the left (next to the Mag)?

    What is your keychain light???

    Muyshondt Aeon here as well, though mine is Al rather than Ti. Has really treated me well as a keychain light so far. I keep it on one of the smallest McGizmo clips so I can keep the folding-split-ring-tailstand thing going on.

    Was your second light the same brand as your first?

    Well, ignoring the countless years of buying (incan) Mags with one Pelican thrown in for good measure, then no. I'm still pretty new to this game but I went from Surefire (E1B) to Muyshondt (Aeon). Still happy as a happy clam with both of them… Actually just dropped the Aeon (which lives on a...

    Let's Hear Your Thoughts on the New SUNWAYLED Lights

    So, just some curiosity… The aforementioned M40C has your normal bright Cree power LED for the white. And the red and blue are just around the perimeter of the bezel, correct? Wondering how these will perform (I know they're not supposed to perform like the MC-E, I'm mostly just curious what...
