Another few shots of my collection just for fun.

Most of the are 18650 lights. There is one P7 light in there. And another of Cree Q5 flashlight with A9 head. The A9 collimator is permanently fixed to the A9 body.

Currently don't have and still looking for MC-E light.

nice collection
turning green with envy...

must be coz i burned my G2 with rechargeable 123s as well

holy smokes! (not that any smoke is holy but holy smokes!) nice collection man! Is that a Lumapower MVP SSC P7? and the DEFT?

2 x RCR123 = 2 x 3.6V, so the bulb went poof.

There's not many LED drop-ins for E-series. I put Koala's F1 MicroTower with Rebel LED on mine.

You could look for KL4/E1B/E2DL head if you want to use LED instead of incand.

I agree with the poster above. You probably fried your bulb. But it's ok, an excuse for an upgrade.

hahaha... me no fan of surefire la... me fan of Star Trek TNG...

Like you... I'm waiting for LumensFactory stuffs from Philightsophy too... now... those IMR bulb sure looks attractive... hahaha... but the heat warning worries me, so I'm playing safe and get the EO and HO bulbs.

Ya..luckily he got pm contact with me so I also buy from Philightsophy, but not EO, might as well get the brightest, the IMR-E2. Not forgetting also some hard to find AW IMR123, 550mAh LiMN. 350 Lumens from E2E.

jwyj, I'm also getting the SR for daily use, good enough lumens with longer runtime. Are you getting the LF Seraph? Looks like pretty good host for lego. I'm going for the SP-9.

I heard with the A9 collimator on, it cannot stand face down. but in your pic it look ok.

that should be the new collimator head with the aspherical lens recess just enough to head stand, the old one is slightly protruded out. Must have been too many complaints... hahaha

Oh yes, this one can stand with some space. Bought it from forumer justin78. Iching to get the Dereelight collimator too but more expensive.

Yea, mistaken

Btw, some cool gathering pics all the way from toronto David from 4sevens is in there too. The last gathering you guys had all take group photos of flashlight, but no human group photo

Hey Rookiedaddy, just read some info about LF Seraph (didn't know what was it ) but can't see pics right now You're getting this mod for your surefire?

Seraph will comes as a complete flashlight, either LED or Xenon. I'm going for Xenon and the parts are interchangeable with Surefire's. I'm gonna use it as a host for D26 (P60-type) drop-in. The advantage is it supports 18xxx size rechargeable and comes complete with 2 switches -- clicky and twisty. I believe Philightsophy will bring in a few configurations.

Interesting, same info here from Lumensfactory?. Technically, why choose a Xenon? Or you're just an incan fan?

Hi and greeting to all my fellow lowyat.net forumers! I usually troll around the wii and xbox sections, didn't know that there is a Torchlight collectors post in lowyat.net too. Hehe.. I recently just bought another torchlight from Pelican. This time a Trekker light so I can go hiking in FRIM this weekend with my wife. It's black colour. My other ones are a Nemo and a Sabrelight which I use for Diving. No problems with either (so far), except that the Sabrelight was flooded during one of my dive trips. But I got it replaced by one of the Pelican distributors here in Malaysia and they were nice enough to inform me that the Sabrelight is not meant for diving (bought mine from hobby sports but they were kind enough to help me get replacement parts even though I didn't buy the Sabrelight from them).

I think they are located in Jalan Klang Lama. They web address is http://www.peli.com.my. I can't remember the phone number of their showroom from the top of my head but I think it's on their website somewhere. I called them up and spoke to a girl name Angeline. She was really friendly. She said will help with the replacement of parts even though I didn't buy it from them. I felt bad so last Tuesday, I went back over there and bought a Trekker light and a 1500EMS case to keep my Ipod, PSP and handphone dry while I dive from them. Great customer service. Highly recommended!

Btw, what do you guys think of the Surefire lights? Is it any good? What is the price range I'm looking at? Is it more expensive than Pelican lights? I saw some at the Curve the other day...

yup... that's it!
why incan... what can I say... I'm power hungry... hahaha

Hi Friedricetheman, thanks for your intro, info and welcome to the Bright Side!

About surefire lights, I'll let the owners comment But the price is a lot more than pelican lights. Slight cheaper than Surefire but of similar quality and popular are Fenix, Quark, Jetbeam, Eagletac, Olight, Tiablo and depending on which model you're looking at.

Are you looking for lights that are speficic for diving? I own Fenix lights and a Quark but I can't really say that they're good for diving. Even though manufacturer's spec is IPX-8 standard, I only trust these lights can be submerge in swimming pool 1-3m deep for limited time. But not so sure about higher preasure like diving. Perhaps someone here with that experience can tell us. Don't get me wrong but these lights I've mentioned are very good for their electronics, regulation, user interface, everday use and they can take unusual punishment. Just that diving category might be different.

How deep do you dive and how's your pelican nemo holding up? Can you tell us the model you're using?

yay! just got back my replacement head from philightsophy ystd

Here's my 2¢. I don't own any but played with some. Surefires are something you can trust. They have the most complete line of lights and accessories. Probably one of the best warranty. Some lights are truly awesome and out of this world. But the price also reflects the build and engineering that has gone into them. Also, they are somewhat less versatile.


Allow me to correct you.

And we're still waiting for the pics of the broken head.
