    A&P's......What kind of light are you using??

    While it's definitely a nice, bright, and durable light, its too big, heavy and bulky IMHO. Great to bludgeon someone with though, haha. You should definitely check out the offerings from Fenix, Eagletac, Powertac, JetBeam, Coast, Streamlight, Surefire, etc. There's alot of great new stuff...

    A&P's......What kind of light are you using??

    I was watching some reviews on youtube also... it looks like the preon p2 has a nice flood pattern, as opposed to a tighter spot beam. IMO, I don't much prefer a throwy penlight anyway, the really bright direct spot can be too much sometimes. I'm definitely sold, and plan on ordering one...

    A&P's......What kind of light are you using??

    Yes, they add up VERY quickly! Thankfully, there's a rechargeable alternative, the RCR123. I think they're also known as 16340. Anyway, they are Lithium Ion, and chargers can be had for very cheap, as well as the cells... a few bucks a piece. Get yourself a couple, and some extras for spares...

    preon p2 is 160 lm vs the stylus pro with 48. the preon p2 also has 3 brightness levels, and 4 modes apparently. yeah i think i may just be getting one of those now too... damnit! this site is evil

    A&P's......What kind of light are you using??

    I still haven't been able to make a Streamlight purchase... something about a proprietary NiMh battery just turns me off. I really like the 47 preon and have been thinking about grabbing one, but as of now I'm using a TerraLux Lightstar 80. I love the high cri led, the warm colour is more...

    Unrealistic expectations or am I just a dumb gorilla?

    my snappy instinct #2 wore pretty quick.. i need to get it re-shanked. i usually end up using a ratcheting driver with a good acr p2 bit.. if its stripped out ill grab a speed handle.

    Generac Portable Gen, 5000 w. question

    Generac was briefly owned by b&s, the deal never fully materialized though. Back feed the 220vac out from the 220 outlet on the genset into your house (i.e. 220 dryer outlet), cut off all un-necessary circuits and bring what you need on. Its also very important that you turn the incoming main...
