    american wars...what flashlights did the soldiers carry?

    You're right, we need more light torture threads around here. I was shocked by how much abuse the Fenix TK40 took.

    Request: Good keychain lights?

    After quite a bit of deliberation, I had settled on the L1D--but I knew I was missing out on the raw power and diminutive stature of the CR123 architecture. I also wanted Q5 power and efficiency. And that cute candle diffuser some of the original suggestions had! So, like you all suggested, I...

    Request: Good keychain lights?

    Well, really, I'd like this to be my One Flashlight. Maybe a big cheap Maglite for the trunk, and whatever the verdict is here would probably be the only two flashlights I will own for the foreseeable future--I'm soon to transition to self-support financially on an entry-level job, and my...

    Request: Good keychain lights?

    Maybe I did it wrong, but I searched keychain lights and got a suggestion thread from 2002 and what were apparently unrelated discussions that happened to mention the word "keychain" somehow or other. I realize that the search exists for a reason, but really, it's not what it's cracked up to be...

    Request: Good keychain lights?

    In the market for a flashlight again! Since you guys know your stuff like nowhere else, I thought I'd ask for some quick help. I'd like a keychain light, something that will always be with me. I'd also prefer something that accepts standard batteries like a AA or AAA, but a cr123 would be...

    Pinpoint light?

    If this is the one we are talking about http://www.x-tremegeek.com/templates/searchdetail.asp?sk=MC51419&productID=11440 then I can't help but notice that it is a third-party accessory. Shouldn't it be compatible with other flashlights such as the Surefires? (I guess I'd love to know the size...

    Pinpoint light?

    I have to say that the laser pointer idea peaks my interest. However, I am far from a light specialist and have no idea what color laser would need to be fired into a gray/blue sapphire in order to get a decent read on how clear it is. I can only guess that a white light source would be best...

    Pinpoint light?

    I have a very specific role in lighting to fulfill in a few weeks. I will be at a sapphire mine and I would like to be able to check stone translucency with a small flashlight. What I need, then, is the brightest possible light at the smallest possible focal point, preferably with minimal side...
