New spotlights for a small light junkie

JohnK · Jan 3, 2005

Well, I didn't have any rechargeable spotlights, but family members gave me, not one, but TWO.

I have a 10,000,000 CP Thor, though labeled "Professionals Favorite" on the light, and box. Huge sucker. It would appear that it should have wheels on it.

I also got a 1,000,000 CP Vector VEC137C.

Initial trials after charging, it looks like the beams are equally bright, no smashing difference. The Vector has the smoothest beam, and a lousy to operate switch.

Did I say the Thor is HUGE!

I am trying to figure out what to do with them, can't EDC them for sure.

What do you mean "can't EDC". Just think of the fame and prestige to be the first (and only) person to carry a Thor on a keychain. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crackup.gif

Yeah, just clip it to a biner and latch it to your belt loop. .

Yea, right.

I lit up my brothers house (about 300 yards) with the Thor, and his dogs barked for an hour. I don't think he is pleased.

After feeling the heat from the durn thing, I may save it for power outages, and cook eggs on the lens!

A question, how often does the lead acid battery need to be charged, if not used for a period of time ?
