Thread: Flashlights

As an aside - the skinny light that I have holds a 18650 battery - it has as much power as 6 AA's. Its crazy!

I just go buy a can of Carbide,add a little water,no batts,am good to go

Funny thing about LED's. They run on so much less power than yesterday's flashlights. Smaller, lighter packages are so much better. I am slowly getting the CFL's out and LED's in in my home.

We are changing to LED's at work and I do not like the light as well. Our break room is one of the first places and my eyes are not a comfortable in there. I do not know what color or tone or the proper term is off hand that they are.

Is possible. Some are glaring, some not. The Cree's are nicest, yet the most costly, IME. Go figure!
I yanked some halogen's which would not barely keep my plants alive in some spotlights and put in LED's. The plants love them. Perking up and growing now. Work with dimmer as well.
Oh! I still like the Halogens at the bedside. They will sort it out soon, I know.

I just got a new aquarium here a month or three ago - I have live plants - guess what was recommended for growing plants? Yup you guessed it. Incredibly, it has a night mode called moon glow or something that gives a very light blue glow at night. It's really cool.

Interestingly enough - the pet store sells fish that are treated to GLOW under said moon light. It's freaking crazy!! It's like being in a 80's nightclub (right Glen lol!!).

Poor fish!
