Thanks

2018-05-18 10:17:10 UTC  

I never had a flashlight for more than $5 so I had no idea

2018-05-18 10:17:18 UTC  

Gonna get some chink lights now

2018-05-18 10:17:45 UTC  

I remember I once even got a little card with a light

2018-05-18 10:17:58 UTC  

that went something like "Dear please lube threads and o-ring"

2018-05-18 10:18:03 UTC  

Explain how you lube a flashlight pls

2018-05-18 10:18:10 UTC  

The only time I would do that is to squat on it

2018-05-18 10:19:31 UTC  

Something I was wondering, does constant on consume more power than flashing mode?

2018-05-18 10:20:48 UTC  

I guess that mostly depends on the light

2018-05-18 10:21:12 UTC  

the laws of physics would suggest it does, yes

2018-05-18 10:21:26 UTC  

unless your light is throttling because of constant on

2018-05-18 10:21:43 UTC  

for example my Emisar D4 when in strobe mode is at like 50% ish brightness

2018-05-18 10:21:56 UTC  

does the duty cycle of the flash happen to be 50%

2018-05-18 10:22:07 UTC  

now you're losing me

2018-05-18 10:22:19 UTC  

speak like you're talking to a retard

2018-05-18 10:22:22 UTC  

duty cycle = how much % of the time it's on

2018-05-18 10:22:46 UTC  

uhhhhhhhhhhhhh

2018-05-18 10:22:49 UTC  

good question

2018-05-18 10:23:01 UTC  

batteries are charging I'd have to check later

2018-05-18 10:23:15 UTC  

That is a lot of fucking around for something you're probably gonna chuck out for an upgrade

2018-05-18 10:37:59 UTC  

@Krieger The Viking Plague Doctor why would you throw away a good flashlight

2018-05-18 10:38:52 UTC  

@Cole Cole do you have a recommendation for a flashlight to mount on a bike? I didn't decide yet

2018-05-18 10:39:20 UTC  

hmm

2018-05-18 10:39:35 UTC  

BLF A6 comes with a bunch of useful bike strobe modes

2018-05-18 10:39:56 UTC  

one of the modes would be ideal for bikes imo:

2018-05-18 10:40:08 UTC  

light is on, but every other second or so, it pulsates in a higher brightness

2018-05-18 10:40:27 UTC  
2018-05-18 10:40:32 UTC  

mode is literally called bike flasher heh

2018-05-18 10:41:01 UTC  

should I attempt to demonstrate? @Millwood

2018-05-18 10:55:27 UTC  

idk I'm kinda like

2018-05-18 10:55:38 UTC  

If I ain't using it because I upgraded it I'll get rid of it

2018-05-18 10:55:57 UTC  

I'm not the type who will save every phone he owned type guy

2018-05-18 11:06:12 UTC  

flashlight market is kinda stagnating atm

2018-05-18 11:06:22 UTC  

nothing new to make me say wow

2018-05-18 11:06:59 UTC  

except for the throwers like blf gt

2018-05-18 11:13:17 UTC
