    Has anyone sputtered the reflector on their LED Mag ?

    I dislike the throw heavy beam profile on the current generation of LED Mags . I believe that sputtering the reflector would even out the beam and produce more spill and a more diffuse hotspot so that the light would be more useful for close up work . Comparitive beammshots would be great , but...

    Ideas for light on a flagpole on a low recumbent

    My friend just bought a 3 wheel Catrike and it's loooooow to the ground . It came with a fiberglass pole with a safety orange flag on it . Great for daytime , but I'm thinking that a lightweight blinky would be much better for night rides . Preferably an off the rack item . Any suggestions ?

    Manafont ( Ultrafire ) 3 Mode XML P60 Dropin

    I believe that this thread was lost in the meltdown so I'll bring it up again . I really love my dropin . It lives in a Solarforce L2 and I use it as a bike light . Medium mode is all I need for this application . I only use high mode for short bursts because it does get hot fairly quickly ...

    Just got my RC-G2 R5

    It's brighter than the previous model and the beam is different . The spill is very bright almost evenly across the beam giving this light great peripheral reach . I tested the throw and I get usable light out to about 250 feet . The reflector is permanently attached to the bezel ring and the...

    Homemade Ghetto Tailcap Mod

    I have an old XJC B-12 that hasn't worked well since I got it ( '06 ) and I traced the problem to a faulty clicky . Since the light is so old and all I didn't want to spend any more money on it . So I took out the tailspring and stuffed a rolled up ball of aluminum foil in there . I now have a...

    Is an XJC B12 worth fixing ?

    The tailcap switch is inconsistent The emitter is kind of weak Are there budget products that can revive this light ? I do like the fact that it's a rechargable 18650 and also it has a rugged build .

    I have this idea...

    I have this expandable colander that I use to steam vegetables . It fits together kind of like a camera shutter and it can expand to fit different sized pots . What if a flashlight reflector can be made to operate in the same way so that the depth of the reflector can be tuned and therefore...

    Am I the only one who likes led hats?

    I own two different models of the Panthereyes led ballcaps. The original just has one mode , on/off with one led ; the newer one has three modes , low , med ,high with one < two < three leds. I use them mainly when fishing at night because I like the UI , a simple button on the brim , and...

    Has anyone tried to remove the clip from an iTP SA2?

    I love the brightness and throw of this light as well as the size. The holster that comes with the light is great and I always use it. So I don't need the clip at all and besides that when you use the clip the light is tail down :( This position would make perfect sense with a side clicky but...
