    Hey Guys, Havn't been here in a while, but I just picked up a Fenix TK22, and trying 18650s for the first time. Bought a Tenigy 2600mAh that fits fine in the light. However, I also picked up 2 KeepPower 3400mAh cells. They fit, but have to be pushed gently in. To remove, I have to "whip" the...

    First battery blowout

    I was playing with my Fenix P2D last night. I knew the battery was low. Anyways, I ended up standing on its tail and got distracted with something else. Next thing I know, I hear a bang and it's lying on its side. Was confused how it falling over could make that loud a sound. Took a closer...

    AW's LiFePO4 clones?

    Hi, I'm just wondering if there are other batteries that look like AW's lifepo4 123a batteries.

    Oakleys - "Rainbow" effect on lenses

    A bit of an off topic question, but here goes. I have a pair of Oakley SI Half-Jackets. My lenses have a banding effect of alternating purple and green stripes. Doesn't affect vision but when looking at them from an angle, you can see them. Especially noticable after cleaning with the soft...

    Forwarding?

    Hey guys, I'd post this in the flashlight areas, but it's slightly off-topic. So, i'm up here in Canada, and I'm looking to get something from the states. The fun part is that they won't ship up here. I'm also looking to tack on a county comm order, so if you're looking to pick up some items...

    Hey, Just got my fatboy. Looks good, but a simple question. Were there several versions made? From review, the front zippered pocket under the flap should have a mesh pocket. However, mine has a solid fabric pocket and no maxpedition tag. It's nothing major, but just wondering.
