The L1 occupies a very soft spot in my heart , I've owned several , the take a pounding , and I love the switching .

It is a great setup, and built like a tank. The efficiency leaves something to be desired though... $:-\$

I'm carrying two Peak Eigers today. My constant companion #4 on a neck lanyard, and a #8 SS on a dangler in my pocket.

This R5 light.

Gareth · **Reply #336 on:** March 17, 2011, 06:43:38 PM

That's a cool looking light mate.

gunga · **Reply #337 on:** March 17, 2011, 06:56:06 PM

Is that a stainless bezel? I just looked that light up, nice price, may have to get one if it can fit a 17mm driver. Not sure about the lack of knurling. Do you find is slippery?

ryan1835 · **Reply #338 on:** March 17, 2011, 07:12:39 PM

i really fancy a zebra light - just have no use for one what so ever

Yes, the bezel is SS. The middle portion is a bit slippery.

How do you like the construction.

I have a 17mm circuit I really want to use for a 18650 light. Was looking for a nice inexpensive host. THis may fit the bill.

I also like the Yezl Z5 I think it was, but that is about $10 more...

Gareth · **Reply #341 on:** June 30, 2011, 01:17:06 AM

I've managed to drag myself away from my iTP SS A2 for a while and have been carrying my green Gerber Infinity for the last week, backed up with my iTP SA2 in my organiser. The Infinity really is a decent light for close up work.

choombak · **Reply #342 on:** June 30, 2011, 05:39:24 AM

Fenix E01 on the keyring, and Zebralight SC50w+ in the backpack.

ICanFixThat · **Reply #343 on:** July 04, 2011, 06:58:02 PM

Summer weather here and I'm finding my self with less pockets than needed.

Today I went back to an old friend the LiteFlux LF2-XT, I needed to read the manual quickly to be sure I knew how to operate it and I have it in CUI (easy mode). I'm still packing a couple other lights, but wanted to test the LiteFlux to be sure it's reliable and and I can remember how to use it, so when I need to slim down I'll feel comfortable putting it in the pocket.

It is a really nice light. I'll have to try to find by 10440 charger, had to put an alkaline in it for now.

David · **Reply #344 on:** July 04, 2011, 07:11:53 PM

Surefire L1 gen. 6, Quark Mini X and a Quark Turbo X in the pack.

Energie · **Reply #345 on:** July 04, 2011, 11:10:06 PM

Today I´ve carried this (at my right ear, looking into my computer):

Interesting.... sounds like a job for a ZebraLight, but that one you have is pretty freaky... I'll have to look into that.

Been trying to sort through my lights and light parts so I used several different ones through the day. Kept the LF2-XT wilth me and my SC60w, but used Quark AA Tactical... still not too excited about it so I think it will be up for sale. Used a couple small AAA lights of iTP A3 origin, but shiny ones. found the pocket clip for my original Jetbeam RRT-0 with AA extender. I was not really into clips when I got it, so it had never been installed. Put it on there as I played with the light. Really nice, but with the variable control lights out there the 3+ levels seem kind of limiting with their current spacing, and that funky method of selecting the low-low is interesting.

Used the Jet-III M just to reprogram the user mode to a medium output level as it was set to strobe, and I'm not using it in the vehicle any more so I figured I didn't need strobe.

I'm going to be setting up a Olive-Green G2Z with M60L as my vehicle light now, but it will take a week or so to round up the pieces.

I found several lights I was not looking for, and several parts I don't remember buying... but I didn't find a couple things I was really looking for. They will probbaly turn up when I'm looking for something else.

I have broken the miniclip I use to attach my red-photon to my keychain, but I found my stash so I could fix that and it is back on my keychain. Nice to havethe little variable red light on the keychain again. I'd like to know how the heck I popped the spring of the old clip especially on such a light item, I use them for my MiniChamp and stainless steel light and never had an issue.

Today was a big flashlight day in the house.

David · **Reply #347 on:** July 06, 2011, 07:33:00 AM

EDC a Quark Mini X and the same ole Surefire G2L at work.

enki_ck · **Reply #348 on:** July 07, 2011, 01:23:35 PM

Tank E07 with a QTC pill. Love it.

ICanFixThat · **Reply #349 on:** July 09, 2011, 04:19:42 AM

Today was variable output day. Did some testing of the Jetbeam RRT-0 variable and the Sunwayman V10R. These are no doubt the best variable control lights I've used; I was only happy with the Photon Freedom and Proton Pro in the past when it came to variable output, but these lights really are quite nice. The control ring on the V10R is VERY nice, but overall the RRT-0 seems like a more solid and well machined light (we're talking Titanium versions here). Looking in boxes, playing with the controls, and a short trip outside, these lights still impressed. They will be staying in the collection. For around the house the variable output was quite nice as I switched from task to task. The Jetbeam probably cost me too much, but the Sunwayman V10R-Ti I think is worth it and is small and light enough to be a great EDC.

EZ822 · **Reply #352 on:** August 05, 2011, 03:08:02 AM

Carried my new Inova X1 55/6 lumen model in my pocket and a Photon Freedom on my key chain

Gareth · **Reply #353 on:** August 06, 2011, 09:16:03 AM

Since changing to my Micro Organiser I've moved from my iTP SA2 (great light) to my older Eagletac P10A.

For pocket carry I just got a Tank007 E07 from Neil yesterday so am planning on carrying that today.

MTlitton · **Reply #354 on:** August 06, 2011, 07:18:59 PM

i carried a cheep coleman max i got this at walmart for $25 it runs off of 2 CR2 it has only one mode and puts out around 115lums

sawman · **Reply #355 on:** August 11, 2011, 08:00:41 PM

I've been carrying my ITP A1 for about 6 months now and I'm not sure if it needs a new seal or some lubricant but the sequences of 3 brightness levels are hard to control on it. It takes some tinkering to get the desired brightness. I wonder if pocket lint has played a role

I've heard of that before I think, IIRC the person put it down to an old cell. Any chance yours is just run a bit flat?

I'm willing to pop a new cell in and see. Thanks for the suggestion

captain spaulding · **Reply #358 on:** August 11, 2011, 10:43:38 PM

Carried my new Stylus Pro for the first time.

Gareth · **Reply #359 on:** August 12, 2011, 11:02:34 PM

Still have my P10A in my organiser but gave my Infinity Ultra a work out today. Just so happens that the low light output was perfect for doing a little fault finding on a CCTV system.
