Today I have a special light.  This is another “new to the flashlight market but skilled in other stuff” flashlight.  And it’s unusual.  Titanium and copper mix, and it’s a reflector light.  It’s not a run-of-the-mill triple, as so many customs* are these days.  I’m excited to have this one in my hands, and I hope if nothing else, the glut of photos I’ve included here tell you the story of this light!

Today I have for review the second in my collection of Malkoff lights.  This is the MDC HA 1CR123 (that’s the full product name).  It’s a hard anodized (HA), single CR123 (1CR123) light, with three modes.

I’ve heard a lot about Malkoff lights – they’re highly regarded for being extremely robust, well built lights.  I reached out to Malkoff, and they agreed to send a couple of lights!  This is the first, a 16650 XP-L HD NW light.

Got the last of four Vapcell tests for you today!  This is the green Vapcell 18650, a 2000mAh, 28A continuous cell.  

Olight has released a new tactical flashlight, and it sports an interesting feature.  It’s the (one of the?) first flashlights with a vibration alert.  Otherwise it’s a very dedicated tactical, throwy light.  Read on to see how it tests!

Preface I’ve had a bunch of Emisar lights. I like them, in general. When this D4S came out and had awesome orange secondary emitters, I…
