    will there ever be a new CPF edition Arc

    I would prefer the HA Red. I'm in for a couple of whatever though.

    Arc AAA tempting me...

    I recently saw a Canadian vendor selling Arc AAAs for non-US delivery only on eBay. Don't remember the name though, but they claimed to be an authorized vendor.

    Arc-AAA UV being made

    I would love to get my hands on an Arc-AAA UV as well. . . Not holding by breath though.

    District 9 the movie...any good?

    I would highly recommend D9. Great sci-fi movie which finally manages to think outside the box. I am looking forward to D10, which is clearly coming (in 3 years . . .). The whole shakey-cam thing is not nearly as bad as movies like cloverfield or blair witch. It is only during selected...

    Mod services? (FireFly, Arc4+, Arc AA)

    I would love to upgrade some of my favorite oldies with better LEDs, but have no idea which (if any) of these can be safely and effectively upgraded. In a perfect world, here is what I would love: FireFly (gen 1)- current beam is blue and blotchy. I would love something smoother, whiter...

    Arc #1065 Seoul P4 Stg 1: lvl 1 Stg 2: lvl 3 Stg 3: lvl 7 I use SureFire CR123s, and replace them every 6-8 months around the house, and every day or two when at the ranch. Green trit in the NG sleeve, and orange trit in the Guarded sleeve.

    Arc AAA maintenance

    Deoxit FTW! All my old (2002-03) Arc AAA's are now up and working like a champ. Even the one that essentially had a melted AAA battery in it. The Deoxit and some foam swabs totally did the trick. It worked so well that I've proactively used it on my other older lights. I must say I am very...

    Arc6 owner poll

    I find the NG sleeve substantially smaller in my pocket, and it snags on stuff less due to the lack of a clip. I also find the exposed piston on the NG easier to operate. With the Guarded sleeve, I can't maintain enough pressure to keep it on high. (However, I hope the low-force springs I...

    Arc AAA maintenance

    The rubbing alcohol and steel wool got one back up and running like a champ. I am waiting for some Deoxit to arrive for one last run at the last two. I'll probably Deoxit all of them just to be safe-- sounds like a great product.

    Arc AAA maintenance

    Is there any kind of solvent that would help remove the corrosion? I don't want to send them in if this is something I can do at home. I will try some steel wool and see what happens.

    Arc AAA maintenance

    My big clean-up had no effect. The 3 non-functioning Arc AAAs still don't work with their original bodies, but all 3 heads light up when tested on different bodies, so it is the 3 bodies that are the problem. These are various pre-2004 AAAs, so the parts don't all fit together (and some of the...

    Sold/Expired The Aeon - Hardcoat Aluminum

    Wow! Nice price drop. I guess I could always use a ti. . .

    E1e options? (aside from the MN01)

    Thanks for the suggestions. Looks like the Lumens Factory HO-E1A would be the most cost effective option. However, I am trying to dump all my incan's in favor of LEDs, but there does not seem to be a particularly cost effective LED upgrade. I've always liked the look and feel of the E1e, but...

    Arc AAA maintenance

    My 2003 CPF Edition Arc AAA (which I EDC on my keychain) stopped working. The head still lights up (I checked it on a newer and less abused Arc AAA body). So what do I need to do to the original body to get it up and working again? The threads? The tail contact? Suggestions welcome...

    E1e options? (aside from the MN01)

    So the Malkoff M30 series drop-ins fit the stock E1e head? The drop-ins seem much larger than the MN01 bulb assembly they would replace.

    E1e options? (aside from the MN01)

    Are there any drop-in options for a Surefire E1e to replace the stock MN01? Or is a KL1/KX1 upgrade the only real option available (which means ditching the original head)? Thanks for the info.

    Michael Jackson has died

    So much for cheating death with the surgical masks and sleeping in oxygen tents. . . So young for a cardiac arrest.
