    Need new battery holder DRY 3xCree 18650

    Pepekraft, Thanks for your help, I ordered two! Funny what a difference the word carrier made as opposed to holder.

    Need new battery holder DRY 3xCree 18650

    I have had a DRY Led 3xcree XML flashlight for over a year and really like it. Everyone who sees it comments on how bright it is. However, I have lost the battery holder. Anyone know where I can order a new one? Thanks for your help!

    SureFire X300 vs Streamlight TLR-1s

    My department issued out 30 TLR-1 (not strobe model) about 3-4 years ago when we switched to a Safariland 6360 ALS holster for our G22s. We haven't had any trouble at all with them and they are all going strong. I recommend you cover the bezel with some tape before going to the range to keep...

    Why doesnt "Super Blast" mode exist in any torches?

    Re: Why doesnt "Super Blast" mode exist in any torches? (question for 4Sevens?) I think it is a great idea and could have application in law enforcement. Imagine a tailcap where if you click and release it stays on in standard high mode but if you push the tailcap in hard (like you might do...

    Is anyone disappointed in their RL-2088 (18W Osram 3 x 18650)

    I recommended it to a fellow officer who carries it as a primary duty light. He loves it and it is brighter than anything around unless you talk about the SR90 and Howitzer which are bigger and cost much more. I think this is a very well built light and built to a higher standard than a budget...

    So is the Ultrafire WF-1300L worth the price, and if not, what should I buy?

    I am a police officer and usually carry a MTE P7 on duty. A fellow officer asked me for a recommendation for the brightest light out there and I recommended the WF-1300L. He ordered one and loves it. As far as I can see build quality is very good and he has been carrying it for 2 months with...

    Sig STOPLITE STL-300J

    I played with one just yesterday. I believe it is made by iTAC for Sig. It has a 4-die led prob MC-E but could be P7. I really liked the UI. You can save some a few bucks by getting it straight from iTac, they call it the TDL1 and Botach appears to have it in stock. I loved the light. Of course...

    Sold/Expired FS: Ultrafire RL-2088 with Bridgelux mod (1980Lumen)

    Markus, Beautiful work! I wil admit up front that the light is not in my budget but I can appreciate it all the same. I wonder if the true power of this light is not being appreciated because there are no other lights in your beamshots as a comparison. Maybe if you added some shots with the...

    My UltraFire RL-2088 has landed !

    Gman, Someone else posted you had put the RL-2088 in your integrating sphere but I don't see it in your chart. Care to share the results? By the way thanks for the chart, you've done us all a service.

    First Bridgelux Mod here on CPF - 2K Lumen many pics

    So does this light still have a high/low/strobe UI? I wonder what a 2000 lumen strobe would feel like in ur face in a dark room. Great mod!

    BessieBenny's Budget LED (DX/KD etc) Flashlights Review Roundup (Part X)

    Re: BessieBenny's Budget LED (DX/KD etc) Flashlights Review Roundup (Part 10) Cutting Edge, AFAIK the HKelvis spot on EBAY was the first to offer the RL-2088, so you will prob be one of the first to get it. Most are waiting till it hits DX to see what they will price it at. So now the...

    BessieBenny's Budget LED (DX/KD etc) Flashlights Review Roundup (Part IX)

    UltraFire RL-2088 OSRAM 15W Now that is a cool looking light. The EBAY ad says 1300 lumens which sounds like the brightest light around for that size. One chinese website showed it side by side with the wf-1300l which actually made it look downright svelte, though no one will ever edc a 3 x...

    BessieBenny's Budget LED (DX/KD etc) Flashlights Review Roundup (Part IX)

    Re: BessieBenny's Budget LED (DX/KD etc) Flashlights Review Roundup (Part 9) Re: MTE SF-22 P7-D You got that light pretty fast for DX! I have had my eye on it as well. Would you say it is brighter than the Aurora AK-P7 you tested before? If this is really a P7-D led in it then I would say...

    BessieBenny's Budget LED (DX/KD etc) Flashlights Review Roundup (Part VIII)

    MTE DX 12623 2 mode SSC P7 I have the MTE 5 mode and have been carrying it as a police duty flashlight for a while. I bought a two mode 12623 but I'm not sure if it has a driver or if it is direct drive with a resistor in the tailcap for low. I would like to make it direct drive on high even...

    Mte ssc p7 2 mode mini review w/pics indoor and out

    So which one puts out more lumens overall? The MTE vs your MC-E lights? Great review, Thanks

    MTE SSC P7 quick review.

    Dhart, I ordered your version (with the hexagonal nut on the neck, not the head) based on your excellent salesmanship. I'm hoping it is direct driven on high. That seems to be the only explanation for it beating the Malkoff P7. Perhaps it uses a resistor in the switch for low. If so it...

    BessieBenny's Budget LED (DX/KD etc) Flashlights Review Roundup (Part VII)

    Re: BessieBenny's Budget LED (DX/KD etc) Flashlights Review Roundup (Part 7) FLT Medic, I carried the MX Power 3 cree for about a year as a police duty light. It is very similar (possibly brighter) in output to the RC-T5, which had four crees and became more popular. I then bought an MTE...

    Streamlight TLR-1/TLR-2 modding?

    Or for a simpler solution to increase output, has anyone tried 3.6 v RCR123s in the TLR? I'm curious but afraid to try.

    Streamlight TLR-1/TLR-2 modding?

    So if it will take a Seoul like CM put in does that mean it has room for a Q5 R2? Or what about a MC-E with IMR cells? I carry a TLR on patrol and wish it was as bright as the MTE P7 on my duty belt. I don't know much about light mods and wonder if a new driver would be required or if it is...

    Mte ssc p7 2 mode mini review w/pics indoor and out

    Great review. I am interested in more info about your MC-E lights vs. the P7s. Which of your budget lights would you say puts out the most overall lumens. Which one (besides the Tiablo) has the best throw? Thank you for your review.
