    **NEW** Nitecore EA4 Pioneer (4*AA, 860lm)

    Back when Costco sold the white Eneloop batteries, there was a set which included a basic charger. I have several of them. My alkalines which BJ included (Panasonic branded) have finally gotten to the point where there is no turbo mode. Still plenty bright though. Once these are done for...

    life gear 1000 lumen 6 c-cell from Costco $100

    Finally got around to measuring current draw on the Coast HP550. With fresh alkaline batteries (measuring 4.66v in the casette), I measured an initial current of 2.67A immediately upon turning the light on. The current dropped rather quickly after that, but settled in at 2.4A and did not drop...

    **NEW** Nitecore EA4 Pioneer (4*AA, 860lm)

    Just thought this needed to be posted here. I didn't read it until now, and coulda saved myself some time dorking around with the three lights I have. Looks like I might need to tighten one of my EA4's since I can just see the reflector moving, and that might not be the cause of the rattling...

    **NEW** Nitecore EA4 Pioneer (4*AA, 860lm)

    Finally got the three I ordered on Friday. :shakehead The instruction sheet on all three have the incorrect directions for exiting lockout mode. FWIW, these all came from the original Battery Junction pre-order which was delayed by several weeks. The S/N's are between 21205835200xx and...

    **NEW** Nitecore EA4 Pioneer (4*AA, 860lm)

    Just learned about the additional Battery Junction delay on these. :ohgeez: I guess I should have canceled my order and gone elsewhere. I suppose this is what you get anymore for being a loyal customer. :sigh: Seems a bit odd to me that they are the only place having this issue. Latest...

    I'm hoping to pick up a couple of these over Christmas. If I do, I'll try to compare the old versus the new versions.

    life gear 1000 lumen 6 c-cell from Costco $100

    Sorry I haven't gotten around to getting current measurements yet. I've been busy, then had the flu for 5 days. :sick: :green: :barf: Hopefully I can get around to it this weekend. I'd like to add that I'm pretty impressed by this light thus far. :ooo: It easily goes from nice, large spot...

    **NEW** Nitecore EA4 Pioneer (4*AA, 860lm)

    Just found out today about the issue with BJ not getting their shipment in. :sick2: I'm pretty upset that they didn't let people know they weren't in by any other means than posting over in the dealer section. :mad: Lame. I've been a customer there for a LONG time, but this is a pretty big...

    life gear 1000 lumen 6 c-cell from Costco $100

    I picked up a couple of these HP550's today. Pretty good deal overall IMHO, all things considered. :thumbsup: I went through the 7 remaining boxes worth of the lights they had on hand (~40 of em) at my local store and cherry-picked the two best ones. Some do indeed have a slight greenish...

    First, as a member of the "old guard" here (and even though I do not post like I once did), let me welcome you to CPF! :wave: Secondly, thank you very much for the update. :twothumbs I have noticed the price of these units dropping lately, and was fairly certain that it meant changes inside...

    The Haiku: why I personally feel the 3S lights have surpassed the PD lights

    Re: The Haiku: why the 3S McClickie lights have surpassed the PD lights! Wow, what a post to stumble upon quite accidentally. :candle: Reading Don's "dump", it sure is a blast from the past to remember the "early days" of high-power LEDs around here. I really can't believe it has been almost...

    I've been waiting for this light for a LONG time! :sick2: I just put in an order for three of these bad boys. :ooo: Two of them will make excellent Christmas gifts (and so will the third; to MYSELF!!! :D). The dealer mentioned above said they expect their order of 100 units late next week...

    The CRI of the Cr6 is 90, as written in the product literature linked a few posts above.

    Re: Pics of HD EcoSmart 65W (Cree Cr6) light engine Written by andersonEE on 01-27-2011 09:21 AM GMT Any idea as to what color the White LEDs are (Nuetral, Cool) in the fixtures you've torn apart? Also, I can't find the CRI rating for the CR6 anywhere. I know the newer LMR2/LMR4 models list...
