I actually regret all the money I spent on the old Surefire with the 123 batteries. I had a Streamlight Scorpion too. I spent a ton on 123 batteries too.
Now I have this little rechargeable flashlight in my shirt pocket that makes them look like shit. |

I use these in my 3 cell SF lights, which are now running a 9-12 volt Malkoff LED: Efest 16340 V2 IMR 700mAh - Button Top They can't be used with a factory 3 volt SF LED light, because they produce as much as 4.2vdc fresh off the charger. They also won't fit inside my old SF A2 Aviator (a too wide battery -vs- a too narrow body). |

I had an early SF light for my Beretta 92 and its dedicated safariland holster that was cumbersome as a frying pan. I think i looked like Robocop to some of my colleagues. It didn't last, but i still have them both. I used a maglite fornaroundnthe house up until few months ago, then i bought a 5$ USB rechargable handheld light that works way Better.

But I get it, I wish I could get some of that money back to spend on new tech. That's the case with most tech though I'd say. I bought a bunch of 6Px Pros (LED) maybe 6-8 years ago when they had some sales. I loved those things, and they're still good lights. Used to use them pretty much daily. Now I rarely use them. On the plus side, I'm using a tiny fraction of the CR123s that I used to. |

The first weapon light I ever used was a stream light scorpion in a ring mount, up until that point I didn't even bother as they sucked. Now, that stream light is a just in case, door pocket of the off road rig kinda light.
I still have a 3D maglite too, though it's been converted to LEDs with battery adapters to utilize rechargeable AAs instead of shit, heavy Ds. It's heavy enough to be an effective bludgeoning tool even with the weight reduction and a massive increase in output, somewhere around 500 lumens or so, so "modern." Was compelled to rebuild it as it is a lower SN model from the 80s, new rubber button, lense, bulb and a clean/grease and she is better than new with all the old patina. Love it. EDC is 1K, which is plenty. |

Nope. After getting used to the DX80, the HID headlights and high beams just appeared really dim in comparison. The WMLs are an assortment of 500 - 1000+ lumens. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: What are you talking about? Lumens are the measurement of all visible light output generated by the LED. Integrated spheres used to test the lumen output of LED lights can only measure light in the visible spectrum. You'd need a sensor capable of IR capture, or UV, to measure that wavelength. Candela, preferred by some, is a mathematical calc based on the lux value at a measured distance from the light meter's target sensor. Some consider candela a superior measurement to lumens as it measures the collimated light intensity in the center of the beam, or 'hot spot'. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Lumens suck. It includes frequencies that humans cannot see. Candelas measure what humans can see. In a nutshell, Lumens = total light output Candela = maximum intensity Candela = throw. Higher Candela will illuminate an object to the same brightness, at further distances. |

Quoted: My first Surefire (Laser Products marked) light was the shit at 60 lumens! First WML was an HK UTL that cost half as much as my USP 45. Lost my first 6Z (a ton of $ at the time) in a bar fight. $12 for 60 minute run time batteries, in the 90s. Now, looking for more TLR-1 WMLs at 300 lumens to not be blinded by the $10 more 1000 lumens HLs indoors. Yeah, I'm old... Still using mine however it was upgraded to a Malkoff. I have many other lights, it’s still my favorite and the one that sits on my nightstand.

I didn't read the whole thread, so this may have already been mentioned...
But this is the reason for the love of old Coleman style mantle gas lamps. Old style filament bulbs powered by alkaline batteries had no chance against them. Modern Lithium + LEDs are another story and are better performers. Except for collectors: https://www.ar15.com/forums/general/Any-Coleman-Lantern-fans-in-here-/5-2628796/ |

Read through most of the thread. Brings back great memories.
I'd like to second what others have said about how a Malkoff M60 or M61 breathes new life into any Surefire that takes a replaceable bulb. They tend to use older (trusted) emitters, and are made in the USA! I started using these about a decade ago, my favorite are the 2-modes: turns an old Surefire into a very functional modern light. Fully potted, large brass heat sink, extremely durable and sufficiently bright! I have used a ton of Asian-made drop-ins over the years and found the Sportac versions to be top notch, never had a failure and they offer very high lumen options. Brass heatsink, modern emitters, and neutral tint options. These make a Surefire equivalent to many modern 2x CR123 lights. Over 1000 ANSI lumens, with a 1-hour runtime. I've used these in weapon lights on 12ga shotguns with great success:

Ah, now I think I'm tracking. A white LED for normal eyeball shit, and another LED that emits on the spectrum that would allow the IR filter to do its thing. Kinda makes sense, but that filter kills so much of the light I wonder if making it a selectable, Vampire-esque, setup would actually be better in the long run. |

All the ones on Amazon have ~40 ratings, so likely all Chinese co-workers saying how awesome the battery is (until it lights my house on fire). Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: FYI the Surefire G2 can run on rechargeable batteries. Get a 16650 battery. It's just 2mm smaller than a 18650. Get several hours of run time out of it as well. Now no need for CR123 batteries. @memsu What's a reputable 16650 battery?

Quote HistoryQuoted: I remember that Glock used to have first-party WMLs that were dog crap by today's standards. I still have one of those on a Glock! Enough light to see it ain't Santa in your living room. |
