BIG GUNS Collections - Weenies need not apply

[WAVE_PARTICLE]

Alright guys! Time to flex a bit of muscle and justify our existence as MEN.

Let's see your BIG GUNS!

Here's mine:

LEFT to RIGHT:

1) Big Red by Mac's Customs - 4xCREE XRE (1000mA to each on high). Estimated lumens out the front end....700....not bad for LED, no?

2) FM 2-1/4D 1450L with FM3H head - 43W Carley Bulb - 1450 lumens.

3) The Torch by Mac's Customs - 4100 bulb lumens, 3100 lumens out the front end

4), 5), 6) Elephant HID's (Mac's Customs) - probably 600 lumens output?

7) Puny little Surefire M6 (XTN extension for Li-ion) - poor little M6...with a measly 500 to 600 lumen output.

I don't think these lights need any introductions.

I live about 20 miles from the nearest streetlight and 7 miles from the grid. Witty bitty incans get swallowed up by the dark out here. These guys hold their own:

From left to right:
6C Mag ROP high with FM 2-inch deep reflector.

FM Mag100 (623 powered by 12 GP2000 cells). Somewhere around 3,000 lumens.

Jim Sexton's rare TigerLight 11-R (full regulation run off 8 Eneloop AA cells) and virtually no resistance in the circuit. Awesome light.

Mag85-R (regulated by AWR's Hotdriver at 11.1 volts) and powered by 9 GP2000 cells in an FM body. Must be something around 800 to 900 torch lumens.

MagCharger 85 powered by 8 1/2D NiMH high-current cells. Maybe 750 torch lumens and 70 minutes of runtime.

JimmyM's Mag458 with added FM 3-inch reflector. 17 1/2D cells pump out something like 11,000 lumens. And, yep, that's about 3 feet tall. Way too fun.

X990 HID, which is really awesome. Something around 3,000 focused lumens and a runtime of 50 minutes if I keep the batteries up.

I'm gonna call you guys the "501+ lumens club". Unfortunately I'm still a couple of days from being in the club. ...I have a PL24 in the mail. :naughty:

There goes E-mack....being all modest and everything. We all know that there is a certain 10K+ lumen beast hiding in that cave of yours along with multiple other 4K+ lumen monsters.....

Unleash the beast! :rock:

There is something wrong with you when you realise your giggling for yourself when reading a thread about flashlights...
Awesome lights! :rock:

 

[Chronos]

WOW. Some GREAT lights here. I love all the magmods. My brightest is my 10x Dominator.

Tim W,

I'll have to take a few pics of a project I'm working on. I'm helping to inventory then sell off a rather large collection of long guns and handguns: 110+ long guns. Includes at least 30 M1 Garands (shooters), a few M1Ds, and a couple of M1Cs, M1 prototypes, etc. Plus two Johnsons, two M1 paratroopers.
