Hi.
I read and watch a lot of user’s reviews about many companie’s products, and take a position. However, I didn’t get an idea of some, particularly about the Armytek, because they have a lot of ardent admirers and convinced opponents. Any feedback about it’s products?
For cells with built in charging (the 18650/700s you plug a micro USB into at the top)
Can they be charged in a regular charger?
Thanks.
not sure what you mean by regular charger, but I have used my iphone charger to charger micro usb 16340, and a kindle fire charger on 18650. I think they both are 5v output, so may take awhile on 18650, maybe need higher output charger so it doesnt take 8 hours. I know if I try to charge a powerbank that is basically 2 18650s in a case I need stronger ipad(12 watt)charger.
my stupid/not stupid question is does everyone get logged out of this forum after about 2 weeks? This is the only forum I have to relog into evry 1-2 weeks, others have me signed on for infinity it seems
I’m asking if the cell can be placed in a regular charger (like a Miboxer or Xtar etc.) instead of using the USB input.

oh, gotcha, yes you can.
I think BLF might log you out if you’ve been away for more than a day or two. I seem to stay logged in as long as I’m reading BLF every day, but if I’m too busy to do that, I get logged out after a couple of days.

Thanks. Looked at a lot of listings online and none of them explicitly said either way.
moderator007:Does anyone really think we are alone here on earth, there are a estimated (possible) 100 billion solar systems out there. Is it naive of us to think that earth is the only one that got it right for life.
Per current estimation of galaxies in the universe is 2 trillion (yes, trillion with a “T”) odds are that we are not alone.
Considering Tungsten is a far more common heavy element distributed throughout our Galaxy, the majority of other flashlight using civilizations are probably more than content with incandescent “Hotwire” designs for their portable illumination needs...
Really stupid this one… Are the Reylight AA/14500s flashlights moddable into triples :question:

Not stupid at all, rather elementary....
Simply bundle and tape 3 together....

Everything is moddable if you try hard enough.
But i got 2 reylights, and modding them into triples requires a very small triple board and fitting optics
Received a new reflector today, thanks Rey! Much nicer beam, but what about the text XP-G on the PCB? [image] [image]

Thanks Yokiamy! That was what I thought as there seems to be few space to fit the “normal” triples inside!
Thanks for you reply
Is flashing firmware to different ATtiny the same process? Or are there differences? What are ATtiny25/45/85-based drivers I can buy available in the market? Just want to try flashing for the first time.
Does anyone know if the Eagle Eye X2R can be used with a lighted tailcap? Or, the other way around, does a lighted tailcap work properly on the EE X2R?
Thanks in advance! :+1:
EDIT: I found this here:
Eagle Eye X2R: driver does not work properly with lighted switch, only grey
Can anyone confirm or elaborate on the grey working or not, please?

I added the lighted tail cap, but no bleeder, and the light works, but it has next mode memory.
Since I use this light in my car and infrequently, it’s not that big a deal.

The process is pretty much the same, but the code has to be specific. There are threads here on the forum about it.
You can buy drivers from MTN Elec or Lexel.

Thanks again for the reply JasonWW! I will take a look at it then

Thanks! Bought some hardwares and now waiting for drivers.
