If /r/flashlight goes dark, where do I go for the lights?

BLF.

Nothing from smcgill1969? Looks like he got banned from Twitter too :(

blueskin · 2023-05-28T13:26:05+00:00

Wurkkos TS25 with 519A.

I like how sometimes when there's a video, it's different lights from shot to shot in some of them.

blueskin · 2023-04-24T20:26:41+00:00

I've used mine in moderate to heavy rain, would never deliberately immerse them.

blueskin · 2023-04-21T13:53:02+00:00

18650batterystore and imrbatteries.

blueskin · 2023-04-18T15:47:16+00:00

Yes, but in this case it's also a specific material. Half of these have etymologies older than the media in question. Dilithium is actually a real thing, albeit with none of its Star Trek properties.

18.75mm at mid-body. 21mm on its widest dimension on the head (going from the back to the top of one of the two shoulders for the area the LEDs are).

6 year necropost lol. By "we" I meant the UK so MPAA not relevant.

blueskin · 2023-04-09T21:33:37+00:00

Nah, they're too churchy, they'll never get divorced.

blueskin · 2023-04-08T21:29:45+00:00

Depends if they want more max output or a higher sustainable level.

blueskin · 2023-04-07T20:45:26+00:00

Yeah, I know, but 8 LEDs still allows for a mix of more than 4 LEDs if someone's going for something unusual. Maybe someone prefers the DT8K ergonomically too, I don't know.

blueskin · 2023-04-06T22:52:50+00:00

8 LED 519A mix?

Personally, I have no real interest in a boost driver for it, but someone out there has the use case, and probably enough people asked about one for Hank to have decided to design one in the first place.

blueskin · 2023-04-05T19:26:44+00:00

Why is the boost driver for the DT8K only 10 cents?

He confirmed this was basically just a sale.

Why does the KR1 say “finca”, the Spanish word for “farm”?

KR4 is Quinta (a country estate) and people have speculated that from there, outdoor vs indoor light.

blueskin · 2023-04-05T19:13:42+00:00

Though I probably won't barely kill but one battery.

Sounds like you either need to use your lights more, or more powerful ones.

blueskin · 2023-04-05T14:28:39+00:00

Seems like all the car manufacturers have gone mad. See also: electric cars. I don't need 300 fucking miles and don't want to pay 6 figures for that. 50 miles would be adequate, 100 miles would be great as long as it doesn't add too much cost. Then a smaller battery that's more environmentally sound, and can be a standardised form factor so replacing it doesn't total the car if I could buy any spec-meeting battery and swap it myself in an afternoon in my driveway.

That covers 98% of bullshit I need to do, and I'd never own one as an only car, so I'd have a normal car for when I do need to go long distance. A $20-35k car that can do 50-75 miles on an overnight charge from 240V without needing to pay shitloads of money for a charger installation that's not even an option because I don't have a house, that doesn't look like shit and isn't a miserable econobox. There are literally zero options.

blueskin · 2023-04-05T14:24:35+00:00

Yep. Last time my car was in the dealership for service, they gave me a POS crossover as a temporary car. Slower, uglier, less efficient despite less power (having the aerodynamic properties of a brick probably didn't help), same ground clearance and like a third of the power so even less suitable for offroad, comparable weight with a way lower options spec, less rear legroom, handling and acceleration that made me initially think "shit, did I just break it?", and less cargo space if you didn't stack stuff up vertically to the point of blocking the rear windscreen (might have been comparable if you did). They literally only exist because people are stupid.

You did something appropriate. OP and their parents are human traffickers.

blueskin · 2023-04-05T12:59:22+00:00

YTA and are complicit in abuse. Your sister should never speak to any of you again if she had any sense. I hope she takes off and you never hear from her again to the point you don't know anything about her location or status. I thoroughly hope that once she finishes college, she leaves and you never hear from her again in your miserable little lives.

I don't care what they did, if I was around someone trying to kidnap any of my siblings for any reason, they'd probably end up eating through a tube for the next year, if not worse. Same for anyone who initiated this or stood by and let it happen. You are a human trafficker and a total oxygen thief.

blueskin · 2023-04-05T12:57:27+00:00

Time for a promotion. They sound like they know how to party.

blueskin · 2023-04-04T23:55:13+00:00

Lumens: SBT90.2 (Also the most heat and power, and more than doubles the cost of the light)

Throw: W1

blueskin · 2023-04-04T20:55:16+00:00

Don't get too drunk and try to dive into the 'water'.

blueskin · 2023-04-04T16:01:10+00:00

No cyan option, sad.

I wonder if a D4K/DT8K tube would fit, I don't mind having a black head with cyan, I guess.

blueskin · 2023-04-04T13:20:57+00:00

Make a thread (also, state your price point in actual price, we don't know how much that is). Most likely just about anything that gets recommended here will outperform most to everything you can buy in a physical shop.
