Ultracapacitor Flashlight

dandruff · Nov 9, 2008

I hope this not a repost, but apparently 5.11 is planning to release a ultracapacitor flashlight in 2009. This means, 24hrs of use recharged in 90sec! Anyone know more? The next revolution in flashlight technology?

probably there is some really good driver circuitry in there. Limiting the discharge rate to the the range where the LED's want it.

If you messed with the internals of tythis light not knowing what you where doing, you might get a 200,000 volt or 50 Amp ZAP :crazy:

Enough energy in 1 second to crank start a Bull Dozer.

It's the 3rd thread about this that I've closed today, and there were plenty of others before. It would help if members would use the search function before starting unnecessary new threads.

Here is the original thread about this which is still open.
