by Dave Wise on Aug.27, 2010, under AA, Cree XP-G, LED, NI-MH, Rechargeable

Olight SR91 Intimidator

by Dave Wise on Aug.19, 2010, under LED, Luminous Phlatlight SST-90, Proprietary, Rechargeable

Playing kid brother to one of the biggest and brightest lights available, the SR91 is no slouch itself when it comes to bright ideas. Descending from a much heralded lineage, this torch definitely has a lot to live up to.

EagleTac PN20a2

by Dave Wise on Aug.11, 2010, under AAA, Cree XP-E, LED, NI-MH, Rechargeable

Penlights have always been somewhat of an oddity to me. Their peculiar size and shape has always struck me as somewhat impractical, however one cannot deny the ease with which they are used generally. EagleTac has thrown their name into the mix with this continuation of their “Personal Nano” line.

With the introduction of the new “Personal Nano” series, EagleTac begins to add super compact EDC style lights into their lineup. More than just a simple keychain light, the PN20a shows that power can come in small packages.

EagleTac T20C2 XR-E LED Module

by Dave Wise on Jul.29, 2010, under 18650, Accessory, CR123A, Cree XR-E, LED, Rechargeable

One of the benefits of EagleTac’s new Mark II Digital ‘20’ series is the use of drop-in emitter modules that can change the characteristics of the light without the full expense of buying another complete torch. This drop-in brings some more punch to the T20C2 in a slightly unorthodox manner.
