[raggie33]

[mindcrime]

LitFuse modded Arc LuxIII @ 667ma. With the hi/lo switch mod, its perfect!

Jets22 BlackBird
with the cr2 body, it has the best size/output ratio of all my lights by very far...

 

[TrevorNasko]

up till yesterday it was my twak arc ls cm mod- it tested higher in output than one of our arc4 prems.

right now my smallest brightest light is either my greeny or my Arc4SX.

 

[neo_xeno]

for size/output ratio it has to be my blackbird too.

my E2e/PR with a DB917 running a LuxIII /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Best I can do is a G2 or PM6.

I ain't able to afford all the really good stuff...

My smallest in terms of size/output is an Elektrolumens 3 X 3W Tristar hosted in a 1D aluminum body with 4 Nimh AA cells on an AA to D adapter.
I took this one on an organized night hike and the guides asked me *not* to use it. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon3.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I think my smallest/brightest is a SureFire E2e with a DB917 bezel with a 3-watt LED.

 

[Icebreak]

Nice lights, fellers.

rex -

Tri-Star 3x3W in a 1D @ 4AA nimh? Cool. Why didn't I think of that? Mind telling me what the host is or if Wayne J. made that for you?

 

[MR Bulk]

The 100W Mag 6D with custom Super Mag Daddy head by Otokoyama that is on loan to me. Doesn't matter if it's not small, the brightness-to-size ratio is STILL better, it is indeed that bright.

That spot in a tree several hundred yards away that I was so excited about my MagCharger w/1160 hotrod bulb lighting up so brightly? The OtokoBeast lights up the ENTIRE TREE, and it's one of those African Serengeti-sized ones. Plus it's brighter at any point inside its huge beam than the central hotspot of my souped-up MagCharger. Sheesh...

 

[raggie33]

i almost bought a 6 d mag they have em at a store near me but i didnt get it but it is bright i bet .but not as bnright as one with a 100 watt bulb that must be insane

Trevor,

What is a ARC4SX?

************************

I have two lights that I think fit this category.

#1: McGizmo built L1-BK/ PR-T,BK/ 2x123/ BB750/ X4T

#2: JollyRoger built PR-BK/ 2x123/ BB750/ X3T/ E2D, I use Pilas in this one.

I did the CPF thing and bought both /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[kongfuchicken]

I was just about to ask that!

Icebreak,

I bought the flashlight at the local KMart for US$12 equivalent. It has a purpose-built 4AA to D adaptor inside. It looks to be a Chinese-made generic - looks and feels like a Mag. I stretched the positive spring contact and dropped in the Tristar led/lens assembly inside the head and voila! Instant daylight. Runs 40-45 minutes at high brightness before dropping off to SF L4 level (on 2100mAh Energizers). A further 15 or so minutes to Arc LSHP level.

Hotrodded KL1. 1000maH with a high dome luxeon and low profile Fraen optic on top of an E1e with a Mcwhatever2 stage tailcap. No offense to Don but he makes so much stuff I can't keep it straight anymore.

Probably a Fire-Fly 2 in a couple of weeks.

 

[McGizmo]

If brightest smallest is in terms of lumens/cube I would guess it is one of my Larry lights. If it's lux/cube, I would guess it's a 1x123 with one of Wayne's next gen protos and a 38 mm reflector.

Wolfen,
No offence taken. They're just flashlight parts! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Edit: I think brightest *should* go to lumens/cube. For lux/cube, how about tightest? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif Throw in the terms like throw and we'll have Doug S. all over us; then again he may have given up. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinser2.gif
