BEST FLASHLIGHT EVER!!!!
 
heres a video review of all your flashlights. Some good, some bad, and some over hyped *cough* surefire *cough*.

just got my new Fenix TK10 in last week. i have to say i love this. I'm not only using this for airsoft, but for work as well. This comes in handly for my aircraft inspections!

ok well to start watch this video - YouTube - Fenix TK10 Tactical COMPARISON LED Flashlights - GlowGadgets

I can't believe how cheap it is. it was 70$ online and its so tiny!

edit - order from toronto (i think)

LOL nice find that guy is hilarious,

"if you got money comming out your ass, sure get a surefire why not"

LMAO

Syn March 31st, 2008 21:38

hey what is the best place to order from non glowgadget like USA or CANADA? The guy in the video is hardcore because he had an enloop shirt.

CDN_Stalker March 31st, 2008 21:42

But can it be "Set to Malkie"?

Qlong March 31st, 2008 21:45

You can pretty much just mod any other light with the new P5 Star and get a better driver.

SWEET! Found a new flashlight :)

Syn March 31st, 2008 22:25

airsofts is to ASC as flashlights is to http://candlepowerforums.com/vb/
pardon me I've been doing spatial testing lately.

Fox Hound March 31st, 2008 22:26

its pretty cool, to think i was gonna spend 160$ on a surefire copy, phew

FOX_111 March 31st, 2008 22:51

Interesting. I need a light that run on regular cells and is as powerfull as my Surefire E2D.

I'm not switching because I love the strike bezel of the E2D... But I'd switch for anything similar that is cheaper to run.

Syn March 31st, 2008 23:02

debating should I be a cheapass and order a flashlight gun mount $6.62 +free shipping http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.5819

Chingyul April 1st, 2008 00:37

Ahh, CPF. They have some crazy light collectors.
Deal extreme has some good cree powered light. Search CPF (candle power forums) for "deal extreme" and you should get some good recommendations.
Surefire's still have their place I think. My P6 is built like a beast and throws well.
But LEDs have come a long way. Just got a Fenix P2d and it's an amazing light, especially given it's tiny size.

Renegade) April 1st, 2008 00:58

Quite the guy... doing that in what I hope is HIS daughters room... lol in all seriousness that is one sweet flashlight..

Qlong April 1st, 2008 23:20

HAHA, those 3mm leds are so last year.

Omi-san April 1st, 2008 23:31

When Michael Caine sells you a flashlight, it gotta be good.

LOL. Mmm...Rebranding is fun.

Sindagon April 2nd, 2008 03:30

JayPee April 2nd, 2008 05:49

Will definitely get the Fenix TK10 to replace my Surefire G2.

Beethoven May 5th, 2008 13:26

hi all. i recently bought a new light... the Fenix P3d-Q5...

I really Recommend it!!!

Qlong May 5th, 2008 14:46

Modded RC-T5, ~650 lumens, high/low/strobe :D

Beethoven May 5th, 2008 15:57

OMG!!

But seriously...the P3d-Q5 is very good for what it costs

Qlong May 5th, 2008 20:20

I've got a Fenix L1D, and I was quite impressed too. These super compact lights sure pack a punch.

Did you get that after? I seen it awhile ago but I'm waiting on money transfer to pay pal and haven't decided on it yet. I've enjoyed my other deal extreme deals though... good service and generally decent products.

JayPee May 8th, 2008 00:14

Wanted to get the Fenix TK10 end up buying a JetBeam Jet 3 Pro. Awesome 225 lumens from CREE Q5, strobe can be set from as low as 1hz to 15hz. 3 slots user interface. It has more then 20 different settings to choose. Power is from 18650 Li-Ion rechargeable battery. Will get a TK10 also once the local dealer have it in stock.

How's the performance of your RC-T5 good? I'm getting one soon. You're running on 18650 cells or CR123?

Blackthorne May 9th, 2008 05:55

Sweet link. Thanks man.

pamparius May 9th, 2008 06:42

just got mine Olight T20T http://www.olightworld.com/proi/cn/p...?productid=431
love it very much.... the strobing is awesome......

Bowers May 9th, 2008 06:49

picking up a tk10 most definitly! im really lookin forward to see how this does

it was either this or a surefire of some sorts but that video definitly helped

thanks for the link!

Beethoven May 9th, 2008 12:22

Didnt you hear me? pick up the P3d-Q5...TODAY!!!
It has much more options for about the same amount of money...
Again, I really recommend it.

P3d ftw! :P

Steggs May 9th, 2008 12:35

Got my Fenix TK10 on order, can't wait to get it!

Comrade Jeff Jamison May 9th, 2008 15:34

that guy is great, he new what he was talking about and overall, it was a very helpful comparison video.

shadowninja May 9th, 2008 16:28

nice find

JayPee June 17th, 2008 05:33

Now I have a couple of lights to choose from for a night game:D :

1. Jetbeam Jet III Pro Cree Q5 (225 lumens)
2. Romisen RC T5 Quad Cree Q4 (600 but actually around 200++ lumens)
3. Surefire G2 with Cree R2 LED Drop In (200+ lumens)
4. Tiablo A9 Cree Q5 (256 lumens)
5. Fenix TK 10 Cree Q5 (225 lumens)

You need a proper mount to use it onto your Aeg and the output of light you get from each one is tremendous. This flashlight collecting is making me nuts;)

Fox Hound June 17th, 2008 07:22

anyone know if this will work - http://www.danieldefense.com/img/pro...56e213cfac.jpg

JayPee June 18th, 2008 21:44

Yes or this one http://cgi.ebay.com/DYTAC-20mm-RIS-5...2em118Q2el1247

Ming_the_Merciless June 19th, 2008 08:30

I use my Surefire G2 LED as my daily carry torch, and after reading the reviews for the Fenix TK10, I must say I am impressed.

If your planning on using it as a weapon light, I recommend the, Viking Tactics light mount:

http://www.vikingtactics.com/prod_vtac_lightmount.html

Light-weight polymer that gives you that offset to use on a rail with a vertical foregrip. Seriously think were you want to mount the torch. Remember to mount the torch as far forward as possible. This way if a BG (Bad Guy) sees the light and engages you from the side, its farther away from your body. Moreover, if you mount the torch too far back the weapon will cast a shadow, placing the torch on the bottom will cause the barrel or fore-end to cast a shadow over the BG's eyes, negating the effectiveness of the torch. You might be good to go, but if your running a suppressor don't forget to reposition the torch to adjust for the increase in length.

Just a few tips, to help anyone out when they encounter any low-light fighting.
