    18650 thrower/spot

    Hey fellas, My father is in need of a new torch for work and asked me to look around for him. He is in need of a 18650 thrower/spot. He currently has an eBay focusable one which just died on him (constant use and reasonably harsh environment) which did the job and has used my solarforce...

    After a couple...

    Hey fellas, After a recommendation on a couple of lights, a couple for myself and one for my father... So, first up, is something to replace the Led Lenser P7 my father is currently mainly using for work. 1) How would you prefer to purchase the light? I will be mail-ordering or buying...

    The Quark lights thread! (Part 5)

    Just looking at the box and manual book that came with it and also the website product description page... On the box it claims 170L for 1.8 hours, in the manual it claims 170L for 1.3 hours. And on the website it claims that 170L only draws 700ma. Thats quite different to the actual real...

    The Quark lights thread! (Part 5)

    I just tried doing that, seems to be the more consistent way about it. Quick taps just blink. Also found another problem... Sometimes when half pressing it turns off. No click so I am not actually turning it off, just a half press. Another half press and it comes back on. So I might be...

    The Quark lights thread! (Part 5)

    I may just send an email off about it, although I could live with the one I have, but if there is a better option I won't say no. Thanks for the link. Excellent! Cheers for that mate. That pretty much confirms exactly what I am seeing and it seems it is indeed normal. Pretty much the same...

    The Quark lights thread! (Part 5)

    Yeah, it wasn't much of a problem, I just cleaned it out and put on a light coat of bearing oil I had close by for my RC's. Going to clean that off soon too and add some black grease/lube. I realise it wouldn't nessecarily mean double output, but I would have expected more to be honest. Ah...

    The Quark lights thread! (Part 5)

    I am using eneloops. Correct me if I am mistaken but I believe the AA2 is advertised as being capable of 170lm on max, it even says it on the box, webside, instruction manual. Nothing/no-one has said you would need to buy other parts ontop to get the adevertised/specified outputs. Yes, it is...

    The Quark lights thread! (Part 5)

    Well, my Quark AA2 regular cool white was arrived today... Honestly can't say I am completely pleased... was I expecting too much? (first real light). The threads seem a bit rough and were a bit dirty it seemed, scraped a fingernail through the threads and the stuff in them was not a...

    Australia Post bans lithium batteries

    Going back to my previous reply, this does go out for all batteries containing lithium right? Not just lithium ion? That just plain sucks right there if it is indeed all lithium batts. Means for my RC hobby that instead of buying in cheaper batts from china for $25 or so, I would be looking at...

    Great!... I guess that means good bye to the cheaper lipo batts from over seas for RC aswell.

    The Quark lights thread! (Part 2)

    I was about to get an O-light T25 until I saw these... A couple of thing's I would like to know... I am looking at the AA2 Warm tint Tac. I apologize if some/most of this has already been mentioned, I couldn't be bothered going through all the other posts (5am here). How much dimmer is the...

    Just a thought...

    Hey all, I'm looking to buy an Olight T25-T. At the moment I'm prefering it over the regular one, because I dont have a need for the 5 different light levels, and prefer it at the moment over the L2D because of its lower low, better throw with slightly smaller spill (not too much of a trade...

    Led Lenser P7 or equivelent

    Thanks for the replies, and positive ones also. Going by those beam shots seems the P7 is a pretty damn good happy medium of throw/spot and flood with that focusable lenses. How do you find the runtime? is it actually what they say? (130 hours) and is it regulated? and regulated well? Im...

    Led Lenser P7 or equivelent

    Thanks for the welcome. Although I suppose at the end of the day, its not gonna be easy to get the 'best' light in town, there could always be something that could be better. Something at this price though I can't really say I expect the best, not to mentioned something that would be 'up there'...

    Led Lenser P7 or equivelent

    Thanks for the reply, an thanks for posting the run times. However I don't think they run long enough (I realize I may be asking for a lot), as I would prefer not to carry around a bag of batteries for it when out in the middle of whoop whoop (no where) especially if they are rare-er batteries...

    Led Lenser P7 or equivelent

    Thanks for the link GBH2. Gunner12: In a nutshell yes, thats what I would like. As for throw, it would be nice if it was useful at 50M+. Anything up to about 20cm or so, about 5cm in diameter for the most part, if some parts were bigger, shouldn't matter too much. Really just something thats...

    Led Lenser P7 or equivelent

    Thanks for the welcome. I tried looking around for a review on the P7, but couldn't find one, will keep looking. Yup I'm from Aus, down south in Tassie. Taking a gander at the Fenix site now. $80 is the cheapest I saw the P7 around for, however I could go a bit more. Thanks for the links...
