What the heck is a quid?? I'll tell you this much, it sounds kinda like Squid and MY girlfriend doesn't really care for seafood..

'quid' is the british equivalent for 'buck'

I don't know, sounds like sales resistance to me and misplaced priorities! :nana:

And obviously you're spending so much time with yours, that you don't have time to post idiotic garbage annonymously on a public forum. :rolleyes:

already April 1st? ;-)

if the MM-bulbs would last longer than the 5 hours I get from them, then maybe it would make sense to type the other (real) reasons to answer the question.
Ask again, when the LED-models are out, maybe by this the sucking light gets improvement (machining an colors are great, light output is on 1980s level).
but compare them to "similar" lights like the Fenix L2P.

Great point, I think I'll sell all my flashlights (torches) and go buy a Mini Maglite, now....
