QUOTE(refnulf @ Aug 21 2009, 01:38 AM) Could be also because of the light engine, the sapphire lens and all that. It's much more solid than any other light I have. Plus, do remember it has to be just as tough, or tougher than the other Ra Lights. Man, that's one sexy light I am assuming that is will be tougher than the standard lights (as if they need more toughness I will be looking forward to your light, but not that soon because my left forefoot is sprained. I am supposed to be in PJ now but I am resting at home instead |

Hi andrewlim8,
If you prefer a light which is programmable and offer good quality, you can try out Quarks too. Speak to polkiuj about it, he will be able to assist you What is important is that you purchase a light that you prefer or like. We are quite fortunate to have various brands available to us to choose, so getting a favorite light is easier Added on August 27, 2009, 9:43 pm QUOTE(Nightstalker1993 @ Aug 27 2009, 06:30 PM) oh well, thank god my diffuser cap was on the light, else it'll damage the floor tiles. if that happens, my mom's gonna kill me Your mum might not kill you, but I will! Haha!The "temporary head" is on its way This post has been edited by Philightsophy: Aug 27 2009, 09:43 PM |

QUOTE(eow1973 @ Aug 28 2009, 06:25 PM) Hi Philightsophy. The dome on my T20C2 emitter came off after I cleaned it too hard. Hi eow1973,![]() ![]() From left: Eagletac T20C2 (used to be Neutral White), Blackhawk Gladius SSCP4, Jetbeam Military I have sent an email to ET regarding this matter. In the meantime, I still have a spare T20C2 head if you want to use it first. Strangely enough, the tint of your T20C2 has turned 'neutral white'. Rather interesting. |

QUOTE(eow1973 @ Aug 28 2009, 07:52 PM) Hi, Philightsophy. Thanks for the offer of the spare head. However, I am starting to like this 'mutant' die. Just tested it outside in the dark and throw is still acceptable. Now I know why people go for the warmer tints. You can see vegetation so much better. My only worry is how long the led will last without the protective dome. By the way, without the dome, the smooth reflector produces horrible beam. I like neutral white tints I have a response from ET and they will replace the LED for free when I send the T20C2 head to them on your behalf |

QUOTE(eow1973 @ Aug 29 2009, 01:00 AM) By the way, got the Jetbeam RRT-2 from Nexro a few days back. A fantastic lighting tool and my last XR-E flashlight, hopefully. Cheers and thanks again, Kah Wai. As for new lights with the LEDs you mentioned, I will have to check with ET first |

Opps, here's the picture of the broken P100A2 head.
The broken area is where the thread is, the "neck" of the light. The moral of the story is: If you are angry at a person, throw the light at him, not to the floor ![]() |

Hi eow1973,
That is a good suggestion to ET. I have other ideas for them to ponder too Hi pseudoblue, The EagleTac M2 models includes a clicky switch which enables users to cut off parasitic drain. The newer M2S has halved the parasitic drain when the light is in standby. By the way, the parasitic drain is quite minor for the lights listed and I doubt it would affect the runtimes that much if you are hiking for 3-4 days. Either way, one should always bring along spare batteries and lights. *Edited because the Jetbeam model shown is the RRT-1, not M1X. My mistake This post has been edited by Philightsophy: Sep 11 2009, 09:36 PM |

Hi guys,
Yes, the Seraph SP6 and SP9 will be available at the end of this month. Hopefully it arrives sooner than expected In addition, there will be cell extenders, D36 turbo heads, D26 LED and Xenon modules, and D36 Xenon Modules. The Xenon modules will be predominantly of HO version, since EO runtimes are quite short for the extra lumens over HO. No IMR modules this time around, but it is possible to pre-order for them for the next batch. I will be glad to assist with further questions regarding Lumens Factory |

QUOTE(old newspaper @ Sep 14 2009, 07:14 PM) indeed a good news for us here !!!! Thanks please keep me update / posted on this ya....very keen on the SP-6 (Led) 3 mode and probably with the extender I will announce the availability once the shipment arrives. Added on September 15, 2009, 12:00 am QUOTE(susuman @ Sep 14 2009, 05:13 PM) I pray for you! Oh? Hmmm, I will have to check that first.btw, polkiuj told me once if it was declared as Torch (instead of flashlight), the custom tax is waved and only the sales tax 10% is charge. Torchlight and flashlight is the same thing, depends if you are using British or American English This post has been edited by Philightsophy: Sep 15 2009, 12:00 AM |

QUOTE(old newspaper @ Sep 15 2009, 10:03 AM) i have another target beside the SP-6.... Hehe, did you miss the heat treated version? Look at the shading and color has anyone ordered this; Jil Lite J2-Ti? ![]() price : USD150 + free shipping for CPF forumer.... they simply look gorgeous to me ! here's just some of my thought; + DD + using CR2 + comes with gorgeous accessories + good runtime 15hours + of course the design itself ! - pricey - XR-E Q5 WC prefer R2 / R4 ! - single mode - 80 lumens [ could be merit for some ] what do you guys think of this?.... It looks like an exquisite World War 2 torpedo that has been reconditioned and remixed for display Oh by the way, why 80 lumens from this light is a minus? ![]() |

QUOTE(old newspaper @ Sep 15 2009, 07:35 PM) at this point of time, i would expect it to use R2 instead....even the lummi raw can reach up to 200lumens Err, I think polkiuj will be the best person to talk to, regarding keychain lights + high output i'm aware of this but the price is way over my budget.....and the heat treated are more prone to scratches and no way to restore it.... You get so much heat build up in a small body that running it over 100 lumens is a 'heated' affair About the scratches, LiteMania mentioned this: If you scrub with soft material like a door key, you will observe a line looks like a scratch above. Actually this line is not a scratch, but a continuation of debris off the metal key left in the very minute surface structure of heat treated titanium. In such case, we recommend to polish the light with a Metal Glow. That is it. From my understanding, the heat treated version is very hard and can be restored with a non abrasive metal polish. |

QUOTE(old newspaper @ Sep 15 2009, 08:21 PM) kinda agree with you.....but if given a choice i would prefer a newer emitter r2/r4 and better still if it comes with at least 2 -3 mode. just like my Raw Ns which is 20/200 lumens configurations. i have quite a number of those small light and i find it slightly warm after 20 - 30 min usage but still feel comfortable to handle it. 60 lumens is definitely brightly enough but not enough to please me...LOL. and with the higher lumens of course we need to sacrifice the runtime but it depends on what's the purpose of the light for...most of my light are purely collection driven.... Haha, no correction needed friend at first i would thought the same thing, heat treated should be more scratch resistance but looking at the pic, it somehow couldn't convince me enough...unless we have a unit to test it out please correct me if i'm wrong ya as i'm still very noob when comes to flashlight..... All buyers (including me Your Raw Ns has a good brightness selection, you are able to choose a long lifetime with decent output or blind someone temporary with such a small light (which can be surprising). Oh about the emitter, don't have to fret over it since the J2 is not a high powered application. The difference between Q5 and R2 is not readily noticeable at high lumen range. What I would like to see is a neutral white tint for it |

Wow Susuman,
You have lots of lights! Incredible amount of lights! Hi damonlbs, Interesting link you shared. Wondering what happens when all of them turn on some powerful flashlights during the expedition. Probably light up the whole area This post has been edited by Philightsophy: Sep 28 2009, 10:02 PM |
