US - Defiant "Super Thrower" 3C (New Model - +/-64mm Head XM-L) - Get To Home Depot Now!

Yep, I’m pondering 2 different builds- IF I can find one that is!

lflex plus 3 nimh c cells
lflex plus 1 26650 cut down body

I guess I should have measured inside battery tube diameter and tried a 26650 cell for fit? Sorry. Wait! I have a 26650 (protected TF Flame) at work I can try! Be right back!

EDIT - Nope! Won't fit. Would have to bore the tube slightly. It can probably be done, but the tube isn't very thick. This would look like a monster in a single 26650 configuration!

Dang it.

Thanks, Garry.

That’d be pretty sick w/ 26650. I wonder who I need to talk to at “Defiant” 8)

Thanks for posting information Gary, again I think that you are intentionally making me want to spend more money!!! JK J) :stuck_out_tongue: :bigsmile:

I'm just trying to enable provide information to you. :)

Wow, this looks good. Is it really as good a thrower as HD2010???

If so I would be really interested in getting one, I plan to use my nimh with a C adapter to power this up.

If I get a chance I'll try to compare to my Small Sun ZY-T08 (similar throw to an HD2010). I bet it's close. And it would make for a heck of a mod with a 3.5A driver and XM-L U3 or XM-L2 (or XP-G2 @ 2.5A)!

Went there over lunch,
none to be found in the aisles with the deals displays,
and none by the flashlights (which were near the power tools area)

I assume this one is the old one ?
Defiant 500 Lumen Tactical Flashlight

What’s the SKU for the light of this thread ?

639226

Yes, that's the old one.

None at the store in Owingsmills MD. Gonna try the store in Westminister this weekend.

I snagged one at Home Depot today. They were in an isle stand next to the padlocks. A quick check showed over 530 lumens when first switched on. After a couple of minutes of futzing it was at 483 lumens. So, Defiant looks to be a heck of a lot more honest than Coast (Coast G20 for $3 at Home Depot). I’ll try and do a full test run tonight.

Went to 2 HDs in Orange County. One in Costa Mesa (maybe santa ana) and one in Fountain Valley. Nuthin.

I seriously doubt we will get this item up here. |(
I really would like one (or two) of those. It looks really cool and that deep reflector… it has to have a wicked throw.

None in our HD. I'm so glad, I did not need anything else to mod.

Nice find. I’m goin check my HD this weekend.

Most of the Home Depots actually do have 35 of them in stock each but the boxes they’re in are marked for some kind of sale and not to be put on the floor till Feb 2nd or 3rd. Although if you ask they may sell you one.

Hmm, this will be a good birthday gift from myself then :) Thanks for the info!

Thanks, having the sku is very useful.

Just choose Home Depot, plugin the SKU # and your closest store # in this inventory checker before making the trip.
