    Old 6P and 9P bulbs with reflectors

    Over the years I have converted all my 6P and 9P variations to Malkoff LEDs. As a result I was cleaning out a drawer and came upon 5 old bulbs, that all worked when they went into the box in the drawer. A couple P60s, a P61, and a P90 and a P91. Do they have any collector value? I see plenty...

    Time for a new charger

    I have a MAHA MH9000. This is my second one, as the first one was replaced on warranty. Now this one seems to be doing what most MH9000 do and that is slowly losing one charging bay after another. Can't complain too much as I have gotten years out of it. I mostly charge enelops and am...

    LED lights with built in USB Micro charger port

    I have one of these, and although it comes with a USB micro charging cord, I wonder why they are not using a USB Lighting cord like all modern current IPhones. Is there something I am missing? I gave away all my Micro cords and now if I travel with a rechargable USB Micro Flashlight I have to...

    Using unprotected 16650

    I have a couple of Surefires (6P&C2) that have Malkoff LED conversions. Can I use a single 16650 in these lights with little concern for fire, meltdown, etc? Or do I spend approx. twice as much for a protected cell?

    Dumb and dangerous idea of the day

    Just made the jump into rechargeable 18650s for use in a Malkoff Hound Dog. I have two of them one the takes 4 primary 123s and one that takes 3 primary 123s. I know that two 18650s will work in the 4 cell unit, but the bright idea entered my head and I though "could I use 1 18650 and 1...

    Is there anyone who makes any type of a clip that would allow me to attach a tritium vial to my two converted maglites?

    4 pin 18 Watt CFL for bath HLVF

    I have Panasonic heat light vent fans in my bathrooms. They take an 18 watt 4 pin double tube CFL. The 26 watt bulb is exactly the same except for the orientation of two plastic nubs. Made I would guess so that one does not put the 26 watt in the 18 watt socket. Could I grind off the numbs...

    Small disappointments

    I was an early adopter of CFL, and aside from use in a closet I found the light to be insufficient for use as a reading lamp. When I finally found some larger CFLs that put out light equivalent to 150 or 200 watt bulbs I was thrilled. When I purchased a few different ones I found that they...

    When I put a battery into the #1 port it goes right to charge, and will not allow me to change the charging level. Is it time for this unit to go back to MAHA???
