Hi all.

I've been lurking this thread for a while without posting.

I have been a flashightaholic for many years. Maglight made a ton of cash from me as a kid.

I just recieved my Fenix PD10Ti. What a gem of an EDC.

Any other owners of that one here?

Regards

I've started my own flashlight collection over the past year. It first started with a little keychain light called the Photon Micro Light II...and then another for each set of keys... Followed by a Fenix L2D & P3D on clearance from 4sevens.com....and finally the Streamlight Microstream penlight & keymate titanium.

My most recent acquisition is the Surefire Saint Minimus.  I had the regular Saint, but never had to use the big battery box.
 
Love it's ergonomics and the rotary brightness control. 
 
My gripes are the beam quality (pretty nasty Cree X-RE beam though the TIR optics), but I suppose it's a good compromise between distance and close up use.  And the lowest setting is still pretty bright.  I would prefer the brightness curve to be larger.

I've been fairly happy with the Fenix HP-10 for an all purpose headlamp, although I do like the size and UI in the SF Saint Minimus, I haven't sprung for one of those yet.

I really like the lightweight and balance of the Saint Minimus.  And being a glasses wearer as well, I've had no real problems with glare shining through the top of my glasses, as the Saint sticks out just far enough.

My Quark 123 R2 edition is getting dimmer even with new batteries.  I suspect it's the light because the batteries worked fine with other lights.  Does anyone have similar problem ?

When is the last time you cleaned and lubed the threads and other contacts?  That will make ALL the difference in the world.

I have never cleaned it.  It goes to maximum brightness and dims after a few seconds or minutes.  I can get it to maximum again by switching it off and on.  It might be the circuit causing the problem.
