    Why No 1 X AAA With Moon Mode

    As far as I am able to determine, there are no multiple-mode 1 X AAA torches with a sub-lumen "moonlight" mode on the market except the ThruNite Ti. There are several multiple mode 1 X AA lights with this feature, but only the Ti in AAA. Do any of you pros know (1) why this is the case and...

    Best EDC on a cruise ship?

    My wife and I have just returned from our 22nd Carnival cruise. On the basis of that experience, I would offer the following comments: 1. The chances of a disaster at sea of any type where a flashlight would be useful are exceedingly small. As with flying, the greatest danger you will face...

    Modern Flashlights and an EMP Pulse

    The naked truth, Tommygun45, is that no one knows whether a given torch will be affected by either a coronal mass ejection or a nuclear EMP. Neither of those events has happened, and to the best of my knowledge LED flashlights have not been tested in an EMP simulator. Nonetheless, there is...

    Novice Fenix PD30 question

    I concur with those who have suggested you move into rechargeables. For extended runtime in a small package, you can't beat the 18650 format. However, you will need to thoroughly educate yourself regarding the potential hazards of rechargeable lithium ion cells, lest you burn you house down...

    Best flashlight for travel?

    My wife and I travel frequently. When we do, I carry my usual EDC, the IlluminaTi, in my pants pocket. But I also carry a Quark AA loaded with a freshly-charged 14500 into the (exterior) flashlight pocket of my Travelpro rolling tote. Inside the tote, with my cellphone and Ipad chargers, go...

    Fenix TK35, Donut Beam

    The beam my TK35 emits is flawless. I would recommend you send yours back from whence it came for replacement.

    Hi, new member, looking for a keyring light, UK

    Welcome to CPF Sastasbulbas! I own both the ITP A3 and the IlluminaTi, and run both on eneloops. At just over $20, I consider the ITP one of the great bargains to be had in LED lights. The IlluminaTi is slightly brighter on high, and sports somewhat higher build quality, but is also...

    Once again, does anyone know if the TK60 is regulated on 3 D cells?

    Fenix TK60 not so good

    I am truly sorry to hear about the tint and dust issues with this torch since I was truly interested in getting one. "Was" is the operative word, unless or until I learn from a reliable source that these issues have been corrected. Nonetheless, I would still be interested in knowing whether...

    Fenix TK35

    Re: Fenix TK35..any good. Another happy TK35 owner here. I like almost everything about it -- form factor, power source, UI, beam, runtime, etc. About the only thing that I don't care much for is the fact that it turns on to the last level selected. I would prefer a L-M-H-T sequence, but...

    Fenix TK35 XM-L T6 - review (BEAMSHOTS e COMPARISON)

    Much to my surprise, my TK35 from GG arrived today, and I am well pleased. To me it appears very well built, and I have no difficulty operating the buttons while holding the torch in the "overhead" position. There seems to have a very slight hint of green in the lowest mode, but all the others...

    Fenix TK35 XM-L T6 - review (BEAMSHOTS e COMPARISON)

    Thanks for the nice review, mefistofele8. That and the generally positive reports from other CPF'rs were sufficient to knock me off the fence. Mine should arrive from GoingGear early next week. :)

    EDC LED Recommendations

    Do a search on the ITP Eos A3. I think you'll find that it fits your needs quite well. At just over $20, it's probably the best LED bargain currently available.

    ITP A3 EOS BLACK Q5 LED Upgrade question?

    Being so hard on your accessories, shane73, you may be better served by either the stainless steel EOS or, better yet, the IlluminaTi.

    ITP A3 EOS BLACK Q5 LED Upgrade question?

    I carried an EOS daily for nearly a year, clipped to a small swiss army knife in my right front pants pocket. After use I would turn it approximately 90 degrees to deactivate the light. I never had any problems with the head loosening further. The EOS is a great little light, one of the great...
