solarforce-nice little light

jasonsmaglites · Sep 25, 2007

i got my solar force 3 led.
mine was the kit with 4 rcr123 and charger.
white wall hunting it seems three times brighter than my fenix p2d ce on turbo!
beautiful beam, white too.

have you guys got this light?
what do you think of it.

mods, please don't close this thread or move it.
it's not a review, and i'm sure a discussion is soon to follow.
thanks,
jason

There's a review on the Solarforce here:-

Just got one too and the 3 level switch won't turn it off just like the review says! Unless someone like the very very low level.

Did you check the shipping charges?
I saw anywhere from $19 to $39!!

Anyway, there are 2 from Kaidomain (free shipping)
$39 and $50 (with charger and batteries).

i took it for a walk for the first time and oh my god!
this beam is the most beautiful i have seen .
i have a 4d mag with tri cree optics,
it's a touch brighter and much better hotspot

i have a 4d mag with 5 cree on reflectors.
beam looks nice but of course not as bright.

the only beam that i can compare it to is my stunner p4.
it's like it's little brother.
perfect.

do i have any cause to keep worrying the lithiums are gonna explode in my hand?
it uses four rcr123a

If I were buying that light, I would run it on 4 AW protected RCR123s.... that would be the safest bet, he has some of the safest RCR123s on the market IMO...

But I would personally wait for a 2x18650 version of something similar that has a boost driver instead, that way you aren't monkeying with as many cells, and 2x18650 has about double the watt/hour of 4xRCR123s.

Strange that NONE of the links in this thread work. I wonder why; mods?

Maybe because this thread is 4 years old. Just maybe.

Shouldn't the one in post #3 work?
