    I suppose the department figures they issue adequate firearms so extras is up to the officer, kinda like flashlights or batons.....

    SureFire EDC1-DFT and EDC2-DFT

    Exactly. Before o'rings were the norm light makers used gaskets. This one appears to be an o'ring against a gasket.

    Streamlight Wedge XT

    Several years ago Coast came out with a rechargeable HP7 the HP7R. To access the usb port you twist the tailcap and slide it from covering the port. No rubber cover/dust cap needed. The 18650 battery pack also has a charge port in case you need the light while you charge the battery. And it has...

    Streamlight Wedge XT

    Bright Guy sent me an email about the XT. I deleted it before the voices could start in on me. "You know you want 2, right?"..... Maybe Santa-wife will surprise me with one if do enough "cough cough streamlight wedge xt cough". That's how I got the Stinger LED a few years back.

    Will I turn into a Maglite fan once again?

    I do, I do, but not enough to pay $159 (169) for it.

    Will I turn into a Maglite fan once again?

    It's not your eyes Poppy. The photo was shot in low light but their forest green only looks green is the sunlight. One could mistake it for their black in low light conditions. Here's the 3 colors outside on a cloudy mid-day. Black, gray, green. (iPhone f1.4)

    SureFire out sources the anodize these days so maybe that's what they meant.

    I am seeing no significant advancements with 2xAAA penlights - my favorite EDC format.

    It seems as though dual fuel has caught on in the aaa size, but the overall scheme of things has gone flat over the last few years. Perhaps due to the size of the fuel cell. Nobody would buy a penlight that can put of 900 lumens for 1.2 minutes but 60 on low for 6 hours?..... But who am I to...

    SureFire EDC1-DFT and EDC2-DFT

    I remember eBay sellers having Maglite spectrum series lights long before Maglite them selves even mentioned them. Now regarding B&H, there was a time they were not above selling gray market stuff. ie not fakes or clones but items not intended for the US domestic market.

    Any issues I've had due to their product they made it right, quickly. If it was new they even paid the postage. Any issues I've had due to my screw up they made right but I paid for the replacement parts (and postage). Contact them via email and explain your situation.

    Will I turn into a Maglite fan once again?

    I got one early on applegatee8. The throw was surprisingly good like a Maglite does. It's still fairly bright on power saver mode.

    Recommend a LED Surefire P60 Replacement Please

    For turbo output Sportac is fine. For a lifetime of upgraded output the Malkoff N series is hard to beat. You get a very similar look as the 6P with new batteries. If you prefer the look of the P60 beam after a while on CR123's as they run down the W series is great too. The M61NL is very...

    Best battery for Surefire Aviator?

    Don't use a 3.7 volt battery. Good score btw. Those things are pricey.
