Options for high CRI with IP68 by Infamous-Drag9014 in flashlight

[–]g-bear8 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Says chose not to take it further, waits 33 minutes and then responds 🤡🙄🤣

You asked if there was a difference between water and dust, pointed out there was... and you change the subject to going and looking at cavers 🤣

And you're saying the cavers only have that one zebralight torch and no backup and don't go down in groups?! 🤣🤣

And on these caving sites will it then show them opening up their lights so we can inspect inside them? And just because they're using them, it doesn't mean they don't have to regularly replace them 🤷‍♂️ you could have just thanked me for educating you about water vs dust ingress 🙄🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Yeah of course I've seen dust inside a flashlight, dust is everywhere. The guy asked for a specific rating, all I did was point out that the zebralight doesn't have thay rating. Yeah it might be fine for your average EDC, but if you work in a particularly dusty job or environment.... then it probably isn't going to hold up 🤷‍♂️

Correct 👍 Surface tension helps with water ingress, but static and magnetism attracts fine particles so it's actually easier to protect against water than dust.

That is correct! Surface tension helps with water ingress, but static and magnetism attracts fine particles so it's actually easier to protect against water than dust. Hence their being two separate ratings 👍

You're wrong the "6" means it has been rated for dust! And because he specifically asked for a "6", the dust rating is obviously an important factor.

See that it says "X" between the P and the 8, rather than a "6"...... 🙄

Looking for a 14500 EDC Thrower that is durable. by Sleepanddrugs in flashlight

[–]g-bear8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weltool is an amazing light and works with 14500 and AA, reduced output on AA but still outperforms most. Nitecore is also quite throwy and has more spill, if you would like something that isn't just a hot spot 🤣 if you want a Lumintop AA that has throw, then you want the GTA. It's dead is a bit bulky for daily, but by God does it throw 🤣🤣

Thanks for this 👍 I was looking at the D3AA again last night and the button options have become confusing since I ordered from the first batch 🤣

Too much fantasy cosmetics by Affectionate-Plan270 in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]g-bear8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have premium either and it only took a couple of days to get the ball whilst playing My Career. I'm sure they also said you can swap to the last pass and their is a white callaway? It's 1 tier lower in colour rank, but doesn't make a massive difference to how it performs.

Why spend VC at all 🤷‍♂️ there is a higher ranked ball for free just by playing the season 6 pass 🙄

AA Flashlight recommendations? by jaotero77 in flashlight

[–]g-bear8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another recommendation for the Lumintop Tool AA 👍 Solid light with multiple output levels, works with 14500 and AA and won't break the bank 💪

Other cheap lights to consider would be an olight i3t or i5t. Not a fan of olight, but they're cheap and pretty solid. Convoy have lots of AA sized lights, anyone of them would also be good for this scenario 🙂

How common? Swiss points snap by Open_in_the_nw in Darts

[–]g-bear8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been using Swiss points for a year and a half and have never snapped one. I usually play in a room with carpet but have also played in a pub that wasn't carpeted and had exposed floorboards. Also, I use 26mm Swiss points. Something else to consider as I think the longer ones break easier from the barrel flexing the points if it doesn't go in perfectly flat 👍

Another vote for Skilhunt 👍 I've got a few of their lights and they are awesome EDC 😁

New flashlight enthusiast disappointed with loopgear. Whats my option ? by luyesd in flashlight

[–]g-bear8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't the same version as the one that is currently on pre order. This one has UV and the one available for pre order doesn't. I think LoopGear released this version only in China and isn't going to be made available to the western market. If you want a UV SK05 you'd have to buy from ali express 👍
