    The perfect AA light what do you want?

    Good list so far. I'll chime in for the 14500 support. And, I'll strongly second the pocket clip. I've been looking for an EDC AA light, but so few of them have a pocket clip. (speaking of, does anyone know which AA lights have clips off the top of their head?) Still patiently waiting on...

    EX10 (1xCR123A) and D10 (1xAA) Part 5

    +1. I don't have an EDC yet besides a DX Fauxton. I'm dearly hoping for a head down pocket clip on the D10, I think it would be my perfect EDC. Has 4sevens promised a clip, and if so, ETA? I've searched CPF but there are so many posts on these lights that I haven't found a definitive answer.

    Camping with led lights

    Good point about the batteries. I generally don't use my lights a whole lot when backpacking, I prefer getting early starts so I'm not up a whole lot when it's dark. Knowing that all my batteries were going strong, I didn't take spares this trip. I've had the Tikka for a few years, way before...

    Camping with led lights

    I just went backpacking last weekend for three nights. The wife and I did about 25 miles with a lot of elevation change. I brought my Petzl Tikka XP headlamp and Olight T20 Q5. The wife brought her Zebralight H30. (which I'm responsible for :)) I never lit up the T20, and I mostly used...

    Beam Shots Please: L0D W/10440, NDI W/14500, LF5XT W/14500

    There's a GREAT free photo editing program out there called GIMP. I use it for resizing photos and other things. It's the freeware equivalent to photoshop. I have Windoze, but it looks like there are a few options for Mac downloads. Definitely try it out, the user interface isn't the easiest...

    AA thrower?

    A couple come to mind. I'll also mention that the DX Romisen RC-G2 seems pretty popular around here, and people say it has a lot of throw for a single AA light. It's dirt cheap, too. Another light that I think has good throw that's higher quality is the Olight T15. You can get it in P4 and...

    Olight T20 Q5 battery options

    Thanks, Lighthouse. Do you know if the DX protected batteries will fit the T20?

    Olight T20 Q5 battery options

    Is this the right forum to post this type of question in? Or would the "batteries included" forum be more appropriate?

    Olight T20 Q5 battery options

    I have the coolest wife ever! She totally surprised me and got me an Olight T20 Q5 for Christmas! She knew I wanted a light, but I was totally impressed that she figured out the one I wanted. It's my first Cree light, and I'm blown away! I have a couple Duracell primaries in it for now, but...

    P2D Q5

    Thanks for your comments, Hitthespot! You have a couple lights I'm really interested in. You mentioned you like the size of the P2D...is that compared to the T20? I personally like the idea of using only one battery at a time. Did you consider the Olight T10, and if so, what about the Fenix...

    Thrower in addition to Fenix L2D Rebel

    Hey nick! You mentioned the WF-600...it comes in both a 18650-only battery option or a bigger voltage range 3.6-9v model, as well. That model accepts 123 batteries. I'm not sure whether you're open to the 123 battery option, but it seems like many of the throwers out there are either using...

    Best cheap LED keychain light?

    I also got a ten pack of the black DX 5mm lights a month or two ago. I'm quite impressed with how bright they are. From what it sounds like, you might get a dud or two out of a bunch, but all ten of mine came bright and the switches working well. Yeah, they have a blue tint, but it's not...

    Haven't heard anything about this light yet...

    Thanks for the input, guys! I guess that's the confirmation I needed.

    Haven't heard anything about this light yet...

    Hey folks! I'm on a quest for a my first real LED flashlight, and had a question about an attractive-looking DX light that no one here seems to have talked about. It's the "DX 3W 5-Mode Cree 18650 Flashlight." I like that it has three brightness levels, and is a small form factor for the...

    Seeking advice for 150 theatre ushers

    Hey Larry! I carry the Dealextreme 5mm LED keychain flashlight with my keys. They're $4.68 shipped for 10 from DX, but plan to wait a couple weeks to ship from Hong Kong. If you buy more, you can get a quantity discount. They're quite bright for how tiny they are, and have a blue/white beam...

    Best rechargable flashlight? 18650 based?

    Hello, I'm another newcomer that's been reading up a bunch on LEDs for the last couple weeks. I'm also looking seriously at getting an 18650 light, so I've had the same question. I don't have tons of money to spend, so I'm thinking of getting an entry level but still bright light. Maybe...
