    Is a headlamp my best option?

    You could probably clean that off using white vinegar - it works pretty quick. (And 0000 steel wool can help).

    SureFire KLx *now shipping*

    Careful Don !!! If you put dummy cells into an M6, because it's a series+parallel arrangement, I believe there is a danger of shorting the cells, (just as they sit in the battery carrier, outside the torch). Unfortunately, my electrical knowledge stops there, but someone else may have a...

    Batonlite arrival

    Aww, if it took "several months", that sounds OK - mine, it took only a few days. Maybe there are different thicknesses of Teflon ? Or maybe I had it fitted over the end of the body, (being torn by the switch action) instead of just around the threading. Jahn

    Batonlite arrival

    e-, is the Teflon tape standing up to wear ? I once tried using a couple of layers of tape on a turn-switch. As the switch was turned on/off it must have chewed up the tape, because after very little use it had turned into scraps of Teflon inside of the light. I believe that some lubricants...

    Green laser w/beam shaper...WOW

    With a decent lens, could a green laser have a long-reach searchlight type beam ? I've been really impressed with Craig's second-best green laser. (I wouldn't ask to borrow his Sunday-best green !!) Thank you again Craig - I will I hope, be getting one. It's a 2.6mW pulsed output 2AAA...

    Anybody had the X5 to depth?

    You'd think that having a member number of 260 would count for *something* - don't it give me automatic wisdom, or respect or something ? Evidently not. Mind you, RonM # 85 has posted with great authority ...... Lithium batteries with a puncture will fizz for an hour or two in water. A metal...

    Which topics do really belong into the LED forum? ** Moved **

    No-one has expressed any hostility (so far ... ) I think is important for anyone playing a role on CPF to receive feedback. As one of the moderators in the Café, I can confirm that moderators are human too ... (Gasps of horror all round) Yes, it's true - just look at moderator darell. He...

    Reflector woes

    LiteFreek, I "just happen to know for sure" that Mag-lite reflectors are the same. (Except that the show-throughs are of blue plastic in Mag-Lites.) The Aluminium coatings on these type of things are very delicate, just a sputtered/vapour deposited ultra thin layer. Even the very much...

    Uses for the solar rechargeable Free Light

    "When trying to recharge the Free Light, ensure you leave it with the solar panel facing upwards" Ummm, just a *handy tip* for users. Not that anyone would absent-mindedly lay it solar panel down of course ...... lightlover
