    Tactical Quark AA or other AA light?

    Re: Fenix E21 or Tactical Quark AA? E21. Fenix quality is just as good and the simplistic UI means that you buy exactly what it says on the package. If the two levels are OK with you, then I'd choose the E21. The Quark Tactical, on the other hand, is a many-mode light (I think there's 8 or...

    Single AAA Clicky?

    The Preon is mechanically almost identical to the ITP A3. The twisty version of the Preon one has exactly the same design in the head contact area, which is where your ITP A3 problems most likely came from. Try to find pictures of the Preon head circuit board and compare it to your A3. It is the...

    How long before the first drop & ding?

    I've had one light for a year and another for 6 months and both have not been damaged yet. I just use them around the house, office and took them camping once. I've dropped an ITP A3 onto concrete but it's so light that there was no visible sign of damage. Now, my laptop, on the other hand, is...

    Tofu - does it make sense?

    All this worry about the risks of tofu. Gee - there are hundreds of foods - including Western, mainstream ones - that if you eat excessively will cause you problems. Life's too short to worry about this stuff.

    Recommend me a good photography forum

    DPReview is a bit snobby and there are snarky but ignorant people. Someone once posted a really good explanation - from a signal / image processing point of view - of why more megapixels doesn't necessarily mean more noise at the same spatial scale. The people that didn't understand it kept...

    Is there a quick and easy way to archive email?

    You should try to determine if you are accesing your webmail through POP3 or IMAP. If you are using IMAP, you will need to find a way to copy them off the server before deleting them in Outlook Express. If you delete them now, they disappear forever. Try searching for offline IMAP Outlook...

    Tofu - does it make sense?

    I just stick to authentic tofu dishes from Chinese or other Asian restaurants. They can do all sorts of stuff with it: There's a tofu desert that's a bit sweet with very soft tofu. There's slightly fried tofu which is flavoured with some sauce and spices. It's one of my favourite dishes...

    Web host advice, please.

    What are your real bandwidth and storage needs? I use A Small Orange (ASO). They have a Tiny plan that starts at $25 per year (150 MB storage, 4.5 GB bandwidth, unlimited databases, email accounts, subdomains, etc.) There's a $50 a year Small plan (750 MB storage, 15 GB bandwidth) as well in...

    I graduate from college tomorrow! Whoohoo!

    It's always best to get experience while in school. I just finished grad school and I'm finishing up a contract to take my research to the next level. Once that's done, I'll need to get a permanent job. If it wasn't for the fact that I've got a couple years of experience in my field throughout...

    Maratac AAA problem?

    Do you use one hand or both hands to twist it? I find that with the ITP, doing one handed twisting will result in flashing because I can't twist it down hard enough to avoid a momentary loss of contact when I turn it on.

    Alternative .pdf readers?

    I use a combination of Sumatra PDF and Foxit since they're both good at different tasks. I prefer Foxit over Adobe or Sumatra as a normal PDF reader but the reason I use Sumatra PDF as well is because I make PDFs in LaTeX with TeXnicCenter. The latest Sumatra integrates with TeXnicCenter and...

    Is this perhaps why the light hasn't shown up at any US or Canadian dealers?

    Military warns oil could start running short by 2015

    By the way, considering US only oil is kind of short sighted. Other countries use oil too, and in fact, with the move of manufacturing to other countries, US has actually displaced some of it's consumption to other countries. What this means is that even if you have enough oil to meet your daily...

    Military warns oil could start running short by 2015

    Read the USGS link. There's 3 to 4.3 billion barrels of "technically recoverable" oil. The rest of the "2 trillion" in that email is not accessible to current technology. Oh, by the way, 4.3 billion barrels will last the US about 7 months if you extract it fast enough to meet daily demand. But...

    Fenix TK21

    This Russian site seems to say that the TK21 is now renamed to the LD25 and has a UI like that of the TK12 (if Google translate is working properly): http://talks.guns.ru/forummessage/232/580710.html

    How is the Fenix l2t?

    Doesn't seem to ship to Canada. Too bad, I would have liked to get a few more.

    How is the Fenix l2t?

    The Quark Mini AA isn't anywhere close to being as twice bright as the L2T. I don't have the Mini AA but on paper it's not as bright as the L2T. You need the Mini 123 to be brighter but even then the difference isn't that dramatic. The Maratac AA wouldn't be anywhere near as bright as the L2T...
