    Non-hobbyist's impression of the Arc4+

    Re: Non-hobbyist\'s impression of the Arc4+ No one seems to remember the 6ft drop test that was done. The switch failed, but woulld twist on for emergency use. Then the throwing to a 20ft hight 6 times, 8 ft 6 times, test came along. Now it seems to be indestructable. Peter said the switch...

    Arc4 Drop Tests

    [ QUOTE ] At some point, the switch stopped working so the light went into failsafe mode and kept working. Peter [/ QUOTE ] Was the light tested after each drop, of did it just get tested once at the end of all the drops? At what drop did the switch fail? Its better than the first drop...

    Arc will no longer be guaranteeing cosmetics

    Im glad js can afford to over look things normal people would not stand for. Ive done auto repair for 31 years. If your door or trunk dont line up, it will still close, but looks like crap when the pin stripes dont line up,etc. If Im buying a new car no way am I leaving a scratch in the bumper...

    Arc will no longer be guaranteeing cosmetics

    The tint I am reffering to is the LED tint. If HA has a pin hole, it should be obvious that, that spot has very little HA protection. The pinhole is there because the HA is pooling around a certain area, not sticking in the "hole" causing a pinhole. Thats the way it works with paint anyways.

    Arc will no longer be guaranteeing cosmetics

    When refinishing automobiles, pin holes(fisheyes) are caused by oil or grease from finger prints or other greasy contaminants. Proper prep will avoid these problems. I beleive its the same with HA. At the center of that fisheye the metal is not suffiently protected.

    Arc will no longer be guaranteeing cosmetics

    I agree with this is nascar. Some things cant be helped, like HA. Id like to make my own scratches in my 180$ light lens, optic, reflector, etc. I cant afford to buy two Arc4s and return the other, to assure myself a great quaility tint and overall satisfactory light. I am hopeing tint is not...

    "Find Me" Brightness Level?

    Re: arc4 finder beacon brightness level I was hoping for a dimmer settings also. It would be great for extreme battery run times, during emergency situations.

    "Find Me" Brightness Level?

    Re: arc4 finder beacon brightness level lowest setting seems right. Im sure the lowest setting is good enough to find the Arc in my backpack or dresser. Dont seem right leaving it on a higher batt draining setting since its just for locating.

    Please post beamshots and runtimes of the ARC4

    Thank you kj, thats a great runtime graph. Very helpful to me.

    Please post beamshots and runtimes of the ARC4

    It would be nice to have some runtime results anyway. Seeing the variables from light to light would be interesting. What setting is close to the SL 4aa?

    Arc4 Testing

    Thanks Darell, looking foward to your observations. Im not sure what features were finally put into the Arc4. Ill probably try the simulator now to find what features the Arc4 has.

    Arc4 Testing

    Can the low setting be kept on for a way to find your light in your back pack or in the dark without draining battery to much? This feature was mentioned earlier. Can we have more real life use pictures and beam shot comparisions? Surely you testers have other lights. How about low, med, high...

    Arc4 Testing

    Peter or anyone who knows, is the Arc4 covered under warranty if it is dropped and the switch breaks? Man I hope so. I really want this light.

    Arc4 Testing

    I have dropped my SL 4aa poly and my 6P from fridgerator hight(top of my jeep hight also)and the 4aa never flinched. The 6p some times would need bulb replaced. the tile floor in my house is as hard as cement. I would pay more to have my cap threaded for a shroud, and the extra bulk wouldnt...

    Arc4 Testing

    Maybe some kind of screw on cap or shroud for the switch can be made available. Maybe threads where the knurling is closest to the switch can be made to accept a protective cap.
