    Now i am worried!

    Pretty much this. The research was done before I spoke.;) Additionally, the links that were posted, pretty much had reinforced my point. I'm not looking to start an argument, but I think that the CPF community is simply too smart of a forum to fall for this EMP "off switch to the stone-age"...

    Now i am worried!

    I'm pretty certain that the destructive effects of EMP on electronic components is vastly overstated. Mostly, this is due to worried preparedness types that would rather try to advise as experts, rather than truly understand the issue at hand. EMP resulting from an airburst nuclear detonation...

    Corn Maze at Night, Mind Blown

    How many knuckleheads were confident that their cellphone backlight was their "flashlight"?

    Current flashlight's price VS. a few years ago.

    :thumbsdow These companies are out to make money. They charge what the market will handle. The upside of being profitable, is that they have more money for R&D and re-investment to bring you more and better products down the road. While it is true that the early adopter largely finances the...

    LED Light for an HK G36

    We need more threads like this :twothumbs: I like Hk's and that conversion is great! I only have one Hk right now myself, a P7 PSP for CCW that I am really happy with. I thought about picking up one of the recently imported Turkish MP5's but decided that my next rifle would be something in...

    the Micron 30 (/w Glock 30)

    Nice review. Thanks for bringing this light to my attention. I think that there is a ton of room for innovation in the pistolight market. I'm really surprised that some of the bigger flashlight brands do not design an offering in this market like Fenix. It has really only been Surefire...

    Found a flashlight in my lawn mower...

    I just checked my lawnmower. No surefires :mad: Mr. Honda himself is going to hear about this!:p Yes, send this story to surefire. Maybe get a free light if they publish your story. Most of their stories read like the mall-ninja HSLD tactical operator version of Letters to Penthouse, so you...

    Cave tour guides with LED flashlights.

    Most people see an LED light that they are thinking of buying, look right into the LEDs, say to themselves "oh Sh!t thats bright!" and wonder around blinded for a few minutes confident in their selection. (keep in mind, I'll see spots for 10 minutes if I look directly into my E01). I have...

    Surefire: L1 or E1b ???

    MSRP on the E1B is $139.99 Surefire pretty much sets their dealer advertised pricing. Auctions do not apply, as they are usually not official dealers nor are they advertised prices. Auction sites also usually are cheaper than that. I didn't even pay $139.99 for my LX2 on auction. More like...

    No love for Inova's??

    I think you, like myself, will be buying any future Inovas from the BST forum. http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/images/smilies/redface.gif I keep gifting out my X5's to unenlightened friends and family that I need to stock up on them. Think I'll try one of the blue X5s this time around...

    whats a good red led light?

    Who knows what Inovas are being made now that they have been sold. But the X5 in red would have been my first thought as well. They run off of 1 cell and are known to suck primaries dry for long long periods of time. They come up on BST occasionally and get snagged-up fast for top dollar...

    Surefire 6PDL w/M61 or Surefire E2DL ?

    You using this light outdoors or indoors? Any specific uses? Like inspecting machinery or something like that? I'd say that the E2DL is tough to beat for any outdoor use, or if you are indoors inspecting structural items that are not right in front of you. The low is low enough to get...

    Revised SUREFIRE staple models

    A bit more output, runtime, and flood would really be nice. Not going to be a tint-nut or "ring" nut. Just wan't SF reliability in a package where I can get the floodiness that I lost when I upgraded my "house light" to the LX2.

    Revised SUREFIRE staple models

    Excellent! I'm in the market for a new G2L anyways. If it comes with the same reflector on the Z2-S, I'll be VERY happy. Was going to just put a low flood malkoff on a current G2L, but I think I'll wait a bit to see what comes out.

    M300A or X300

    If you want easy-on / easy-off, then the X300 is what you want, but since this is for a shotty, I'm questioning the practicality of the switch activation and placement of the light. Shotguns are best with tape switches, (you need to keep your hand near the activator switch, racking a slide will...

    110 lumen E1Bs' already shipping to dealers....

    Yes it is worth it. Once you buy SF, you understand. Don't get me wrong, there are other excellent products out there, but SF gets their rep for a reason. Save a little longer, then go bargain-hunting. Check the for-sale classifieds on this site. You can get a LNIB E1B for about $100 about...

    Question about handgun lights

    Weaponlight Tip! Cleaning your weaponlight lens: Learned this at the range today while firing my FNP-45 with SF X200B mounted to it. To quickly clean the lens of the weaponlight, use a pencil-eraser to remove the built-up carbon crud from the lens!:duh2: Output was severely diminished after...

    Inova + Nite Ize = No Warranty

    Nite Ize used their own cash then? :poke: Nite Ize makes stuff in the USA? They were mistaken in telling their customers that they were moving production overseas? I could be guilty of being wrong due to speculation on the first point, but I doubt that I am. It doesn't really matter. It...

    Question about handgun lights

    C'mon Al, let this one stay open. We ARE talking lights here, and the gun portion of the talk is not spreading over to other threads. Weaponlight users can benefit from the knowledge on CPF. If there is a specific rule against weaponlight discussion, then end it. But if not, there really is...

    Question about handgun lights

    We are talking flashlights first, guns second. A winter and summer CCW are bizarre? We have specific carry guns for BBQ's.:nana: Some people on this board have a choice of certain lights for specific occassions and uses. Many of which are unlikely, improbable, for show, bragging rights, to awe...
