    Nitecore D10/D20/EX10 Registry part 2

    I just received a D10 R2 with serial number 000242. I think it's going to replace the EX10 Q5 that's been my EDC. --Bob Q

    LEDs vs. shotgun recoil

    I replaced the front grip on my Remington 870 with a Surefire 618 as soon as I got it home. My wife and I put at least a hundred rounds through it (mostly #4 buck and some slugs) before I swapped the P60 out for a P61. That was in use for several years, and at least a thousand rounds. A...

    Pila GL3 LED Replacements?

    I know that Pila sells an LED module for the GL3, but it is only 120 lumens and appears to be unregulated. Does anyone know whether there is a brighter and/or regulated LED module that will fit the GL3? I would love to upgrade mine. I've installed Cree Q5 modules in my Surefires and now my...

    [ QUOTE ] Gransee said: Planned accessories: Spyderco knives, LEDs. Any recommendations on a popular Spyderco knife? Looking at the Jester for one. [/ QUOTE ] The Jester is probably the perfect choice for a small light/small knife combo. My other suggestion would be the Kiwi in stainless...

    Arc Flashlight Going Out of Business

    My first decent flashlight was an Arc AAA Limited Edition, bought back when they were first produced. I have carried it every day since and it has never failed me. My wife carries one too, and so do several of my friends. In fact, I don't know of anyone who owns one and doesn't carry it. My...

    Arc LS Twist Batt Cap

    [ QUOTE ] cy said:Both can be modified to accept a two stage switch. [/ QUOTE ] By two-stage, do you mean two levels of output? If so, can anyone point me toward information on how to do that? I'm sure this has been talked about, but I'm a newbie and I couldn't find it with a search. --Bob Q

    Flat Twist-Switch does not work with my LS2

    How do you turn the light off with the spring in there? Do you just use a short enough spring that you can unscrew the tail beyond its reach? --Bob Q

    Where to buy an Arc AAA LE?

    Actually, I did see that. The problem is that no one suggested in that thread appears to still has any LEs in stock. I thought it would be less confusing to start a new thread than to re-animate that one. Sorry if I've committed a faux pas. I am very new here. --Bob Q

    Flat Twist-Switch does not work with my LS2

    Thanks for all the suggestions! Putting something conductive in there does seem to do the trick. I'm going to experiment with a combination of a solder dot and a bit of foam to act as a kind of spring. --Bob Q

    Flat Twist-Switch does not work with my LS2

    I will give that a try. I worry about the foil making a high-resistance contact and causing problems with the circuitry. Seems to me that the basic design really ought to have a spring or compression washer in there. Hmmm... Thanks for the suggestion! Do some of the twist-switch tails have...

    Flat Twist-Switch does not work with my LS2

    I just purchased one of the 123 twist-switch tail packs from Arc and discovered that it will not work with my recently-made LS2 (LSH). It screws on just fine, but the light won't come on even when I tighten it down all the way. I have tried it with two different types of batteries, including...
