    TK17 - Tritium - and battery question.

    Just got a TK17, and I like it a lot. The Osram LEDs are a great color. There are many slots on this light that look like they could fit tritium vials, but I don't know much about fitting these or what sizes are available. For example, the tailcap slots appear to be about 5.5mm long and 2mm...

    Feniex (Not Fenix) Guardian

    Looks like Feniex has released a flashlight. Feniex is a company that makes emergency vehicle lighting.... https://feniex.com/scene-lights/guardian_flashlight. Looks pretty "meh" to me, spec-wise. Also, Micro-USB in 2021?

    High-Capacity NiMH Charger

    I’m looking for recommendations for an AA/AAA nimh charger with at least 8 bays. More is better. Fast (1A) charging on all bays simultaneously would be nice. Safety is paramount. I need to be able to trust it to run unattended, overnight, etc. I was liking the Tenergy 16 bay charger before I...

    Recommend me a charger!

    Currently, I use a Maha C9000 to charge and condition NiMH cells. I also have a Nitecore i4, D4, and D2, which don't have great charging rates, especially when you're talking higher capacity cells like 18650s and above. I'd like something with a faster charge rate - say 1A or more? Whatever...

    What is your "kitchen drawer" light?

    I'm looking for ideas of what's best to put in the kitchen drawer - this is a utility light. You might grab it to look for something behind the couch. Use it in a power outage. Take it outside when you take the dog out at night. You get the idea. General-purpose. Any budget, any battery...

    Very Floody, 2000+ Lumens

    I'm looking for a light that's very floody and outputs a ton of light. On my list are the EagleTac SX25L3 MT-G2 and the Olight SR Mini Intimidator. What are other good lights that meet this specification in this category?

    Two Requests: <=$100. Most Lumens and Farthest Throw

    Title says it all. What's the most OTF lumens I can get for $100? What's the farthest throw I can get for $100? Doesn't need to be the same light. Don't care about battery type, size, etc.

    1xRCR123?

    I currently EDC an EagleTac D25C Clicky Ti. I love this light. My only complaint is that it doesn't take rechargeables.... well, I guess it does, but they advise not to run the light for more than 5 minutes :) Is there something like this light that can take RCRs? Specifically, I like the...

    Small(est) 2xCR123A?

    Looking for a new pocket carry. Current pocket carry is an EagleTac D25C Clicky Ti. Wouldn't mind a few more lumens. I like the Eagletac clip because it's a deep-pocket clip and doesn't cause the light to stick out. What's out there these days? EDIT: The ability to use an 18650 is optional...

    EagleTac D25C Clicky Replacement?

    Well, I did it AGAIN. I lost another D25C Clicky. I really like that little light. I'm looking to replace it. I may just get another one, but I'll list the things I like about it in case there's a different model that would better suit me. Deep-carry pocket clip Small and thin 1xCR123A...

    The Right Tool for the Right Job

    What are the situations that you encounter - routine or otherwise - and what are your flashlight requirements? It's important to choose the right tool for the right job. I'll start. I walk the dog at night. I live on a street with no sidewalks or street lights. I prefer a light with decent...

    P60 Drop-In, Good Mix Between Throw and Flood, Multiple Battery Options

    I might be asking too much here. But, I'm looking for a P60-style drop-in that meets the following requirements: Good mix between throw and flood (I know this is subjective but that's okay) - like Nailbender's XM-L2 with the OP reflector. 500+ lumens but also has a moonlight mode. Can run on...

    P60 Dropin That's ~1000 Lumens on 1x18650/2xCR123A?

    I'm seeing some 1x18650/2xCR123A lights out there that are claimed to be about 1,000 lumens OTF. EagleTac has a few. I'm wondering if there are any P60-style dropins that meet these specs?

    P60 Heat Sinking?

    Just got a new nailbender XM-L2 and a solarforce L2T. I have read that it is a good idea to use copper tape or aluminum foil to get better transfer of heat from the lamp assembly to the body. What do I need to know about this? Thanks!

    Maximum Discharge Rate for CR123A in Series

    Quick question - I've read that the max discharge rate for CR123As is 1.5C, which would be about 2.2 amps for the USA-made CR123As. That's clear. I'm not an electrical engineer, so... if we have two CR123As in series - do we still adhere to the 2.2 amp rating? Or does it become 4.4 amps? I...
