We just hit 2000 subscribers! I’d like to thank everyone for showing up here to create a new community, and what better way than giving stuff away?

I’m giving away the Nitecore MH10 v2 I reviewed. I can ship it anywhere in the USA or EU, but EU winners will have to wait until mid September. This is a basic, beginner-friendly flashlight that can accept almost all 18650 and 21700 batteries.

    I will contribute with a flashlight meme themed limerick:

    There once was a man without foresight

    Who’s wife did not approve his new flashlight

    His Visa credit card

    Lay out in the yard

    But came four weeks later his new Hank light

      Is this a bad time to mention that the D1K is on sale for $30, and can be had with the new Nichia 719A?

        Interesting. I’ve been eyeballing a boost-driver D1 for a bit, but after seeing the SC65c thermal throttling and knowing how quickly most Noctigon and Emisars step down due to heat, I might go for a DM11 since it has a bigger head, and will put more lumens “on target” with the TIR. My larger lights are all bucked/boosted and are set up for reasonable sustained output instead of being 30 second hand melters
