Nice Pics, nice light! Lummi rocks, as you say you have to have one in your had to understand. Rob makes great lights.

I had a play with his MIL prototype a while ago, CR123 anngle light with variable output/dimmer control via rotating the base. Can't wait for him to get that out on the market.

Her's my latest addition:







Nitecore EZAA R2

On CPF they say these are getting quite rare just lately, though a few are available on UK webstores.

 

[Gareth]

Great pics mate, just another item to add to my ever growing wish-list.

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

Me still want one

My latest-Petzl Tikka 2

[Turnstone]

I'll start with a pic of my Maglites. A Solitaire and a Mini Mag AA. I have a MiniMag AAA, too, but gave it to my dearest and he can't find it anymore 

I don't use them anymore, but they are reliable and rugged lights and were good companions for years. Just a little bit outdated now with their inascendent lights... I can't believe I used them for years when I look at them. They look almost like new.

This Peak LED Solutions #8 Eiger in stainless steel replaces a Peak 3-LED SS Matterhorn as my watch pocket light.   The Eiger is considerably brighter, whiter, and casts a much wider hot spot through its optic than the narrow 3-LED Matterhorn.   Both lights are built crazy tough.

My E10 side by side with my LD10

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

Nice

[Gareth]

I don't think the E10 ever did get released here, did it?  What do you think of it Teofilo?

[Teofilo]

I've read in some light forums that the E10 is not available in some countries in the Americas and Europe. Whatever Fenix's reason was, too bad they certainly lost a big quantity of people who loves simplicity.

I have two words to describe the E10: simple and solid. Simple in a way that, it has only one mode, a pushbutton tailcap and uses an old emitter, the Luxeon Rebel, no match for the Crees . The body's as thick as the other Fenix's products but not too sure if it has the Type III HA.
I noticed that it can't tail stand and light adapters don't fit, and also has no pouch for edc. But at 23-25 USD,not bad compared to the LDs and PDs line.

[NutSAK]

The Luxeon Rebel can't match a Cree, but it's no slouch.  It's maybe 5% dimmer than a current XP-G.

The thing that's nice about the Rebel is the tint!  The tint of the Rebel falls somewhere between the "cool white" Crees and the "neutral" Crees.  I like to describe it as a "vanilla" white.

It is a shame about the E10 not going to all markets.  I think we the availability of simpler, durable lights like this.

Thanks for sharing Teofilo!

My now fully-modded-out Techlite Lumen Master.  The build quality on these flashlights is actually quite good, but the electronics are... difficult, to say the last.  They also (stock) used a battery holder with 3AAAs.

Anyways, found a tub of the things at a local discount store, got two of them for $5 each as well as one of those $2 9-led specials.  Turns out there are 4 different versions of the Techlite, one that uses an XR-E, one that uses a XP-E, and two versions that use an XP-C emitter.  Anyways, I ripped out the tailcap switch and tailcap from one with an XP-C emitter, and modded the switch from the cheap 9-led special in to it.  I also modified the existing smart clicky from the one with the XP-C emitter, removing a large spacer and making a spacer out of some high melting point plastic and using of the springs from the battery holder to make a low profile spring for the tailcap. I also did the same thing (spacer + spring from battery compartment) for the positive connection terminal as well, and made a battery spacer out of a tape-wrapped cardboard tube from a roll of paper towels.  After having done all this I gained about 7MM of space in the battery tube, *just* enough to fit an 18650 battery inside without fear of crushing it.

Practical upshot, for ~$13 I got a 160 lumen, XP-E 18650 flashlight with a choice of either a single mode-reverse clicky flashlight, or a 3-mode (50%/100%/strobe) with a momentary tactical override.  Changing the two is as easy as unscrewing and replacing the tailcaps.  Since I think the "smart" tailcap has a vampiric drain issue, I keep the single mode clicky installed for emergency use, but it takes 3 seconds to switch them over if I'm taking the light out somewhere.

Oh, and six new Duracell AAAs as well.



I never do things the easy way, if that weren't obvious already.

I just saw these at Costco.  $20 for a 3 pack (XP-E model).

Cool.

If you can definitely get the XP-E model, it's worthwhile to get - the tailcap is quite easy to mod so you can fit an 18650 in to as well.

I picked up these two today.  Both power up by AA batteries.  The Lumapower I
got with the optional Teleforce head as well.  Also had a very nice visit with
"Gunga" whom I received the Lumapower package from.  Thanks Mike.

[gunga]

He he he...

Take a walk, let me know how you like it!
