What lights do you have?

Ordered Fenix HP25 Headlamp

 

[Blord]

I bought the BTU Shocker from CN shop. This flashlight is GIGANTIC ! Unbelievable big and unwieldy. The head can easily act as a medieval mace.
The DRY flashlight dwarfs in the size.

Blord that thing is massive... great day

Part of the reason I never really considered it (Except a super deal). It's not a convenient light... doesn't look balanced and easy to handle.

For modding though, just imagine MTG2 LEDs in there at 5-10A each... would rival HIDs for raw power.

Received FireFox4 and Zebralight SC600II today

I was pissed off I had no water this morning - now kind of happy since I had an excuse to work from home, and actually get the delivery same day it's intended

The SC600II is top notch... the finish is a little different from my other ZL lights, and the clickie switch is a a lot more audible. Very pleased with it.

The FF4... first reaction is it's small! It's not very comfortable to hold. Kind of wish they'd made the battery tube longer. Still, I'm very pleasantly surprised by the size.

Now I just need to come up with somewhere to take some comparison shots... the lights closes to it in terms of performance that I have are the TK75, and BS Terminator. Although the FF4 should smoke both handily :eg:

Just ordered and received my Olight M22 Warrior

 

[Livinloud]

My Convoy C8 T6 just arrived yesterday. I really like it and so does my dad, he bought one last night since he was jealous :na:

I just got my Nitecore MH25 after getting a P25 and was happy with it. Friends also bought the P25 along with the 3400mAh Panasonic cells.

I didn't see this coming. FT just increased prices on their Nitecore stuff (fortunately, my last order was still with the old price). I haven't ordered other brands so I don't know if those raised as well.

I have a Tecxus Rebel X200 with 200Lumes, focusable and running on 4x AAA batteries.
It is bright enough to light my room and shine up to 120m/360ft

Some of you may recall I whined (bitched) a bit a while back upon receiving the Nitecore SRT7. I stand by those criticisms.

That said, today I received the SRT3 and SRT5. Order was placed late Friday with Illumination Supply, and it shipped monday. Not only was the order processed quickly, but both Craig and Calvin were online to chat. Friday evening. After 5pm.

Kind of wish other companies had half of the same quality of service. The phenomenal service is no surprise, and nothing new so I'll talk about the flashlights a bit.

Clearly Nitecore put more time and thought into these lights.

Here's a list of the improvements;

-Dead travel space, where you twist the magnetic ring but nothing happens, is nearly -gone, to the point of insignificance.
-Addition of SOS, which replaces the Green LED/option.
-Improvement of the strobe - on the original SRT7, the strobe is so fast that it's actually not that disorienting.
-Significantly lower low mode. Especially on the SRT3.
-Instead of having an "OFF" mode within the magnetic ring detents, you have a moonlight mode.
-The Red/Blue strobe is somewhat improved in speed to more closely resemble emergency lights.

In terms of overall quality, the lights are excellent. The one area where the SRT7 excels is inside the reflector. I do see some very minor imperfections on both, but more so on the SRT3.

Some improvements I would love to see;

-To have the output pushed to 900 lumens+ and drop down when heat or battery charge become a problem.
-A spacer for the SRT3 when the 14500/AA adapter is in place. (The walls of the spacer are more narrow so the AA doesn't rattle around, and is adequate, but why not include a $0.01 piece of plastic?)
-Reduction in size. The SRT3 especially, is a somewhat big light, with the AA/14500 extension.
-Even lower lows.

Overall though, I think if one or two years ago I got one of these flashlights, I might not have developed the flashaholic bug because they are that good. I'm now somewhat torn on which 18650 light will continued to be my EDC in the future. The SRT5 or the Zebralight SC600II.

Received the Blackshadow Darth today.

It's a surprisingly nice light. Not quite the same level of quality as the terminator, but it's close, and way above typical budget lights.

Not sure I'll keep it for long though. Too many similar lights taking up space.
