    Secutor PEL-6

    IMHO, there would be no need for holsters if the Gladius and now the Secutor had removable belt clips like the Thrunite Scorpion. At the very least the Secutor could have a Cree XPG R5 in it already driven between 1.0 to 1.5 A instead of the weak 120 lumens Cree (looks like a Q3) emitter it has.

    Couple of Gladius mod questions

    Runtimes are the same because the drivers are not modded. Prefer the XM-L mod because it's brighter and more floody, perfect for home use. For XM-L modded Gladius beamshots see Moonshadow's pics at http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?272611-XP-G-modded-Gladius. The optics used...

    XP-G modded Gladius

    Thanks for the beam shots. My XM-L mod has the same beam pattern but with "Cree rings" on a white wall since I used a smooth reflector from an R2 drop in. No Cree rings at distances of 6 feet or more. The smooth reflector throws a bit more but not noticeable unless you compare it side by side...

    Thrunite Scorpion V2 (XM-L) + Turbo Head Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS and more!

    You're welcome! :) The small MRI in our local hospital hasn't been able to activate my Gladius at 3 feet so I wonder why some owners have complained about magnets accidentally triggering their Gladius. Maybe they were in a junkyard with the electromagnet crane lifting cars nearby, LOL!

    Thrunite Scorpion V2 (XM-L) + Turbo Head Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS and more!

    The Scorpion and Gladius tailcap switches are a magnetic "contactless" type of switch, aligned to 4 or 3 reed type micro switches (respectively) inside the inner plastic battery tube. When the magnet is aligned to a reed switch, it will switch on that mode. The 4 or 3 reed switches are also...

    Unscientific SSC P7 vs XM-L comparison

    Yes, it will. At least my TD15X and Gladius do, even with their smooth reflectors.

    Flashlight/ Recharge in Car

    It's better to have a car charger for your flashlight batteries like the RCR123, 16340, 18650, etc. instead of a charger for the whole flashlight in the car like my Stinger XT. Made an spare/extra 3-cell sub-C NiCD battery and installed a homebrew charger for the Stinger XT, instead of...

    Anyone got their hands on the Solarforce M8 XM-L?

    Anyone got their hands on the Solarforce M8 XM-L?

    Is it possible to use its A.I. switch with the Solarforce L2 and can you put an L2 body into the M8 head? TIA!

    Show your Solarforce

    Nice collection tenka, especially the L2mm!

    Is This Optic Damaged / Defective? Gladius Creemator Upgrade (Pics)

    Very interesting thread, thanks for the updates. A thermal epoxy should stop the wires from being cut when the bezel is screwed back after cleaning the lens. Good luck!

    I want the TD15 or TD15X, but Selfbuilt's review made me re-consider my choice...

    Have both TD15 and TD15X. The TD15X can reach whatever the TD15 can but just not as bright on the target. I just keep the TD15 because I prefer its user interface and as a backup to my TD15X. My TD15 is driven at 1.4A on a single 18650 while my TD15X reads only 1.7A on a single 18650 at the...

    Gladius XM-L mod observations.

    Followed the mod details posted by Samuel in http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/...d.php?t=190761 and instead of the Q5 I tried the XR-E R2, then the XP-G R5 and now the XM-L T6. The R2 mod using an R2 smooth reflector from DX was the farthest throwing of the three emitters above and looks 2...

    UltraFire WF502B MC-E Warm White (Beamshots)

    Thanks for the very nice review! Have you tried using two 16340 rechargeable batteries? Need to verify if the drop in is indeed good from 3v to 18v.

    Do anyone buy the Ultrafire UF-007 (Recoil Led)

    It's not focused because of the bent post. Had one before and it was focused at all distances. Try to focus it using locking pliers or a mini adjustable wrench. Good luck!

    Cree mc-e rewiring 3.5v

    You can wire it as direct drive, just make sure you don't use a battery with more than 4.2v fully charged.
