    My solarforce l2r pictures

    Now it says 900 ma with rayovac hybrids... Maybe I'll try a single cell lipo, charged halfway (around 3.8v).

    Really... I'll try using my 2200 mah rayovac hybrids. They should be almost as good as enelops. What if I hook up to a dc power supply? That would give as much power as the bulb needs.

    yikes, mine is only 750 ma with 2 AA alkalines. Maybe I'm not getting the output I should be getting? On medium, draw was 300 ma, on low 60 ma.

    Yes, it's a cree r2. I will check the current at the tailcap, no problem.

    On mine, the rubber sticks out a bit, so it is difficult to tailstand, but not impossible on a desk or counter. Try pushing the flashlight down onto the tail, it should stand then.

    You pretty answered t_f's questions for me, thanks. I'll get some beam shots as soon as I find a place in my house to take them. I haven't ever taken a beam shot, but I'll give it a try.

    oh shoot really? I didn't get any warning when posting them. I'm using a picture host to hold the pictures, since I'm not allowed to upload yet. So I just pasted in the html and submitted.

    My solarforce l2r pictures

    First off, I'd like to say thanks to fellow cpf members for recommending this light. I just though I'd post some pictures and my opinion on the light. I ordered for on ebay from airsupply07 and was very pleased with the service and shipping times. The product arrived assembled, with the carry...

    Cheap 100 lm lights?

    I received my solarforce today! First impressions are that is is a good quality light, with some blemishes to the finish. For the price paid, who cares? Everything fits together nicely, absolutely no problems with function. It came with a 1x1 inch square piece of metal. Anyone know what it's...

    Cheap 100 lm lights?

    Your info has been great! I'd like to have the sos for the odd time I'll be camping/in the middle of nowhere/in an emergency. Chances are I'll never use it, but it's a nice safety feature right? IMO, strobe is useless. If the extra mode comes without sacrificing reliability and without changing...

    Cheap 100 lm lights?

    ok, 2 more questions: how do you switch modes on this flashlight? and most importantly, which colour is best? I'm leaning toward the gunmetal colour- I don't know about you, but it looks amazing from the pictures. I suppose there is no difference in scratching, durability, etc?

    Cheap 100 lm lights?

    Alright! I think I'm going with the recommended solarforce L2r. This one on ebay has 5 modes and a R2 LED http://cgi.ebay.ca/Solarforce-L2r-5-Mode-R2-295-Lms-2xAA-BLK-Flashlight-/150432354431?pt=US_Flashlights I just have a few questions: How long would 2000 mah nimh batteries last...

    Cheap 100 lm lights?

    ok, well they have different versions of each model. The main point was, does dorcy make good lights, or should I stop asking and buy something?

    Cheap 100 lm lights?

    Hi everyone, I'm back. So while I was gone, I saw some dorcy led flashlights that looked half decent in terms of quality and price. The real plus is that they sell them all over. I was interested in some of these: http://www.dorcy.com/products.aspx?p=414216 and some of these...

    Cheap 100 lm lights?

    I still can't make up my mind between the streamlight which has a lifetime warranty, or one of the budget offerings. :o

    Cheap 100 lm lights?

    Thanks, that's a lot of info. I haven't considered a keychain light, I kinda like the regular lights. It will be medium use, most of the time just a few minutes but sometimes a 1-2 hours continuous. This will be for working around the house, walking, repairs, etc. Not really for distances over...
