    Did anybody change the batteries on the K2000R?

    Title says all, compared to the other 24W HIDs that use 3 18650 cells it seems like either the ballast is very inefficient or they just use cheap batteries. Anyone opened up the battery compartment yet?

    Combat Grip for the Surefire E-series

    I really like the Combat Grip in my M3, so I decided to add something similar to smaller Lights. Just an O-ring wrapped around. I carried the light for two weeks now, and it works perfect! Much better grip and that for the cost of some cents. Of course a pocket clip has to be removed /...

    Runtime test: M3T+A19 with 2x 168A Liion cells

    Hi all, i wondered what the runtime of my often used M3T is, so i did a runtime test with pictures, using MN16. The flashlight body was bored out and a A19 adapter was added, to allow using 2 168A cells. First minute is a little brighter, then almost constant output until minute 25,then...

    Why does the L1 ues a 3 watt LED ?

    This may be a dumb question, but i really don´t see a point why they do that. Well, the only advantage is that all the 3 watters seem to have a very good tint, but a good binned high dome can´t cost as much as a LUX3.

    new DOCTER led light?

    Has anyone seen the new Docter Aspherilux spotligt LED yet? seems really interesting: 5 watt LED, regulated, variable brightness settings. Drawbacks are 3 AA batteries (not much power for a LuxV) and the "spotlight beam" with no sidespill.(like inova X1) at least the catalogue description says...

    M3T drop testing (unintended)

    Yesterday i dropped my M3T the first time, height was less than one meter, guess what's happened? I am pretty disapointed with that. Of course, the lens is pyrex and fragile, but on the other side i have dropped my A2 and M@g mods (UCL lens) numerous times and only some dents in the aluminium...

    Downboy1000 for 5watter?

    Hi! I want to build a mod similar to the SNII, but i want to use a 2D Mag as host and drive it with 8 NiMh AA's But I have no opinion how bright which converter board will be compared to the Space Needle. I think I have read the SN draws 1,2A from fresh batteries, so I guess the DB1000 would be...
