    Bad Li-ion Battery .1 volts shown ?

    I just recieved two new CR123 3.6 Volt TrustFire RECHARGEABLE Protected Batterys(TF_RCR123). Before I charge them I check them for Voltage and Internal Resistance. One of them checked 3.85 volts with 40 Mohms but the other shows .1V and 280 Kohms of resistance. Thats right the battery is totally...

    MG MC-E PLI or RX-1?

    I cant speak for the PLI but I have the RX-1 and the beam width is quite impressive. I cant describe the feelling of power you have using this light. Last night I went out on the porch and it was slightly foggy. It just looks fake the quantity of light emitted from this little handheld device...

    Pictures look pretty large...might have to resize them There 1024x768. Is that to large for these threads? Do they need to be resized to 800x600? Regards Dennis

    My new MG RX-1 Cree MC-E 700 Lumens Flashlight

    "Beamshots? comparison? how bright is it? Looks well built for the price." Its hard to compare to any other light I have in brightness I have a TK11 R2 and a Olight M20 Warrior. Both pale in comparison. Ill try to make some beamshots later this week for it. As for being well built? Its built...

    TK11 R2's being discontinued ?

    4 sevens states on their website that they only have a few left for preorder and after they are gone there will be no more TK11's. Why is this light being discontinued. I plan on purchaseing one in a few weeks and will probably have to look elsewhere for it. Were there problems with this light...

    REVIEW: Shiningbeam Romisen RC-N3-Q5

    I got mine yesterday from Shiningbeam and I have to say Im tickled to death with the quality. No dings on the threads, very smooth operation, immaculate finish and all for a great price. If you like the looks and function of the RC-N3-Q5 dont let the low price fool you. This is a quality...

    Bad experience with Battery Station batteries

    I just find it inconcievable thay they would not replace them at a cost of what, $12? I've bought numerous things from them over the years. 12.00? Either you have lived a sheltered life or you must be a very stressed person. Chill out! Its only 12.00 dollars. Things happen. Perhaps you could...

    question for PCB homebrew types

    As soon as remove the resist I spray the entire pcb with Pure Shellac. Shellac has a low melting point, smells ok when heated and interacts very well when soldering. The melting point is lower than the lowest solder temp and you will find that soldering is much easier because the copper is...

    What do you use for a Spacer on your charger?

    I don't use a spacer. I modded the WF-139 by connecting the two side slots. Works great! sbdwag

    Measuring cell voltage - under load?

    I think you would be better served to calculate internal resistance under load as a indication of health of a battery. Internal resistance can be defined as the change in voltage divided by the load. For example suppose you go to Radio Shack and buy a 10 ohm 10 watt resister and place the...

    Olight M20 3.0V RCR123's or 3.6V RCR123's ?

    Just curious. Is this a dumb question. Ive searched for an answer and found nothing except not to mix chargers. I understand cr123 primarys are 3.0 volts. Is there any disavantage to supply between 7.2 and 8.4 volts to the light? You are probably dropping 1 or 2 watts of power using 3.6V Li-ions...

    LD01 Flickers

    I had the same problem with my LD01 and I noticed a silver discoloration on the round anode area inside the head of my LD01. I took a soft pencil eraser and rubbed gently until that area dissappared and the clean copper round area reappeared. Solved my problem completely. Regards Dennis

    LD01 Cree Rings Is this normal

    Thats very true but up until a few months ago I never paid more that 6.00US for a flashlight. The thing is My LD10 and E0 are very pleasing to look at. I sure that Flashlight mfg's shudder whenever there is a post like this being so critical. Im not being that critical but based on the two...
