What you got today

Got a TR003P4 charger. Not that I need another charger. According to my handy little spreadsheet, I ordered it on January 3rd. *checks calendar* Yup, HKP sure did take their sweet time on that one.

good charger..I use mine for everything li-ion and had a 12v plug that fits it..

I got anoticeyesterday and picked it up today , the c-mini from ric , nw tint ,love it and fast turn around time I think 10 days or less ,:slight_smile:

oh! lets see some pics and impressions mr.brightlights!:)

As soon as it gets dark I will check it out against a few others for u;)

I got a Petzl XP in the mail today. I like it! I made a few additional comments in WTS forum which is where I bought it.

Got a pair of XTAR 18700 2600's today. Charging them up now and will run some tests on them over the weekend.

I got some 3C XMLs today also for cnqualitygoods. I made a couple drop ins using them before for someone, but I want to make one for myself so I can take some beam shots to compare the tint.

Thanks. So far I've only charged half a dozen cells but it seems to reliably terminate at 4.20v. It's kind of noisy but I can handle that since I'll keep it out in the garage anyway after it's proven itself.

Two of these tiny little things.

Not very sharp though.

Don how did that pass through customs?

The blade is under an inch long. AFAIK, it is perfectly legal here.

There were also 3 wire saws in the packet so maybe the X-Ray machines didn't notice the blade shape.

LOL, "flick knives" are verboten but push daggers (that don't really have any legitimate use but make superb knives even in the hands of an unskilled and untrained fighter) are legal? I knew weapon laws in the UK were a bit of a joke but jeez.

Oh, and I got some protected 16340s I ordered from DD in January. The description said unprotected but the pictures showed protected so I figured I'd go ahead and play the lottery. Now I need some more lights that actually take 16340s. It's a vicious cycle... :D

Skilhunt Ramble AAA Cree R5 from DX

EOSlamp SP11 XP-E R3 from intl-outdoor.com

please could you review them on BLF? :)

not many people have these!

Just got this from Mr.BrightLights (thx for the super fast shipping! will definitely deal again)

Initial test on my PVC LMD yields 21, 210 & 640 lux (lumens). Again, I'm not claiming accuracy but I think those are very realisitc numbers. Overall fit and finish is OK, too bad the fins doesn't match rest of the light. Nice neutral color (although slightly warmer than I prefer BUT it's by no means warm either). Fits nicely in the hand. I'll try to get to a full review in the coming weeks but Foy has already put up an excellent one on a Stone White (which I have incoming as well).

Also got four MOLI18650B bats (thx again for the heads up viktori!). On the charger now and will conduct some runtime testing (and whenever I get my hobby charger set up, some discharge testing). If these hold up, they'll be awesome bang for the buck!

EDIT: Also got this a few days back and already putting to good use:

I used to have a 120V clip on fan but it was noisy and likely nowhere near as energy efficient as this little USB gem. It's got a 4 port hub to boot. Has already brought some sanity and peace/quiet while I'm conducting runtime testing for Turbo/High modes and is also great for visualizing PWM effect when you dial it down to low speed.

Finally got the Brynite PD03B which I ordered on 7th Jan. Also another one of these brilliant little angle lights: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/190555132551?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

what a long wait!!

please share your experience with the PD03B, thanks!!

( actual runtimes would be of interest, and 10440-length compatibility )

Yesterday I got my second Tank007 E09 from DinoDirect. The first one was dead on arrival, but DD was kind enough to send a second one. This is my first (working) AAA keychain flashlight, and I like it a lot. So far my only complaint is that the flashlight always turns on in the next mode. (see kreisler's comment below)

My original order was way back on January 5th. I have now received everything that I have ordered from DD, so I am once again pleased with The Dino. My other flashlight in the order was a Romisen RC-T601, and it has memory issues. Why don't all flashlight manufacturers make flashlights with proper memory? That's my biggest pet peeve right now.

yesterday i commented on the memory function of the E09 in my review. the current mode (e.g. MED) is only memorized if you leave it on for several seconds (e.g. 5-10 seconds) in this mode. then you when you turn it off and (after 1 sec, or 1 day, doesnt matter!) turn it back on, it will be back on MED. The memory function really works well on my samples.
