PROS
Fantastic quality.
Solid
Works with XHP-50/70
Acts as a heat sink
|
|
CONS
|
I really like the feel of this reflector. Nice, solid aluminum that helps pull heat away from the LED and transfer it to the body of the light. The reflector needs just a little bit of file work around the top edge to fit in C/D Maglites. I found it worked very well with an XHP-70. The center hole was near perfect size. Quite floody, but that's ok because it eliminated the "cross hatch" so commonly associated with multi die emitters.

PROS
Nice precision edges
Hard steel
Stays sharp
Tacky non slip handles

CONS
None (even after a year of use)

I really like these nippers. They are just the right size for detail work yet I treat them like they are much larger. I have cut solid 10 gauge copper wire with these more than a few times. They work better and have outlasted some cutters four, five, even six times the cost of these. Even after a year, I am still very impressed

Robust
Expandable
Pre soldered leads
6/9v moddable

CONS

I love these things. They are hard to beat if you want true current regulation. Add chips for more brightness, remove them for less light. Easily converted to handle 2 or even 3 Li-Ion cells in series by purchasing a zener mod kit. For about 50 cents and a little bit of soldering, you can have a lot more options. A great flashlight driver at a great price.

PROS
Bigger and heavier than pictured
Cleans tips without temp shock
Inexpensive
|
|
CONS
None so far
|
I have to say that I was expecting a fluffed up, stretched out, wimpy piece of brass wool when I ordered this. To my surprise, it was much, much thicker than it looks in the pictures. I have been using a sponge up to this point and I cringe every time I wipe my iron and the tip sizzles. I know that shocking it like that isn't good for either the tip or the iron itself. So I got myself one of these. It fit perfectly in a baby food jar. I think I will get a few more at this price!

PROS
Build quality
Glass lens
Removable pill
Easily modded
|
|
CONS
Zooming in/out takes forever
|
I really like this light. It was designed with the modder in mind. It has the same pill (brass) as the C8 and is easily accessed for emitter/driver swapping. The lens is glass and quite HEAVY ! The only thing that I could whine about is the amount of time it takes to zoom in/out. Not a big deal, I am just used to the "slide" to focus style lights. This one is a "twist" to focus. All in all, it is a nice, well made light.
