I use Nyogel 760G to lubricate flashlight threads and O-rings. Before that, I used silicone grease purchased in the plumbing department of home center stores.

electrical conductive lube

Honestly, I don't see the point, the increase in conductivity is in all likeliness negligible.

Ok deoxit is a contact cleaner and does the job but so does tim clean or isopropyl alcohol and it's a lot cheaper than Deoxit

as for No-oxid I have this and it's great for smearing blades for storage,it works on flashlight threads too but it's let down when it comes to using on MT's and SAK's because it's too thick

which brings me to the best all round lube for lights and SAK's MT's Nano-oil I've been using it for years and simply put IT WORKS!

remember tho even mineral oil works ok, everybody's MMV

Micro tool does not show the nano oil. Is this where you get it? How much is it? Thanks!

Caig for almost anything electronic. Not just flashlights. At work we use the products in spray bottle, wipes and pens. A little goes a LONG way. A quick google search will provide many positive reviews. I am very skeptical of most any product claims. Caig lives up to it's hype 95% of the time.

I picked up some super-lube from Ace hardware near me that was going out of business, so it was pretty cheap.

Heres where I found out about it on CPF: http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=242414
