    Glo tube lithium

    I've tried using my lithium Glo Tube to read travel books in my bunks at hostels while backpacking. Honestly, they suck (monkey balls) for this particular application, even with the light sitting right on my chest, almost right next to the text. Like silent lurker says, being electric glow...

    ThruNite P60 XML dropin any good?

    OneBigDay, do you happen to have the runtime for this drop-in at its various settings? Also, how does performance of the single-cell version differ from the two-cell version? What do you need to do it use the single cell drop-in in a Surefire 6P?

    Nitecore IFE1 vs JetBeam RRT-0 S2 Comparison Requested

    I'm trying to decide between the Nitecore IFE1 and the JetBeam RRT-0 S2. Would someone please tell me which of the two is more efficient? That is, if they were to both produce, say, 100 lumens out the front, all things being equal, which would be able to do it for a longer duration? According...

    Biking Headlamp Repurposed for Caving

    For me, the big advantage that the Hurricane has over the Scurion 1500 is that it doesn't cost a little over $1000.

    Biking Headlamp Repurposed for Caving

    Yucca Patrol, the Hurricane is definitely one of the most promising lights I'm considering; but, I was told they won't be ready for 8-10 weeks. Who makes the upgrade modules?

    Biking Headlamp Repurposed for Caving

    C.E.P., thanks for the information. MagichShine, Lupine, and BikeRay are off the list. It's not so bad that the MagicShine goes to its lowest setting to prevent overheating; what's terrible is that it's lowest setting happens to put out worthless amounts of light! The Ferei HL08 definitely...

    Biking Headlamp Repurposed for Caving

    LED_Thrift, I think it's really tough to say what effect caving will have on a bike lamp, unless someone has first hand experience. On the one hand, like you mention, it's pretty cool in a cave - most of the caves that I find myself in are 50-60 degrees. Maybe cool enough that just walking...

    Biking Headlamp Repurposed for Caving

    That came up while I was researching, but I didn't think anything of it at the time. I guess I'll just stick to caving headlamps, then.

    Biking Headlamp Repurposed for Caving

    Hi, guys. I have two questions, actually. 1) Is there an introduction thread that I missed? I don't remember there being one on the old CPF; but, things might have changed since I last had a need to post. 2) Has anyone successfully used a biking light as a caving headlamp? I'm in the market...

    Looking for a better torch than the SF G2L

    This is my first post; I'm new to the forum. I was wondering if there are any torches that can put out more light than the Surefire G2 LED (80 lumens), and are able to put out useful light longer than the G2 LED (12hrs, according to the packaging). I'm sure there are lights out there that can...
