(Viewed 665 times) amillionpeople  Location: Worcester, MA Gender: Male  |  $100 "SureFire" light for $10! < on 8/12/2007 1:36 AM >   I found this on Instructables... I haven't tried it yet, but I plan to. I've wanted a SureFire light for a while, but they're just a little too pricy for me right now. This looks like a great alternative! http://www.instruc...d/EU9I131F1B3RHOB/ The only thing it's missing is the tailcap switch... I'll have to think about that one.

I have a Streamlight twin-task (both luxon and leds) and I turned on accidentally in my pocket. It burned my thigh and the dam thing took 20 minutes to cool down. No wonder it was on sale.
