Jil-Lite Constel LED Micro Lantern

Monday, June 10th, 2013

My friend Mel at Kifaru turned me on to the Jil-Lite Constel LED Micro Lantern. It looks to be a great little lantern that can be hung from a branch or in a tent just as well as it can be carried. It uses a CR123A Lithium battery to offer 30-40 hours of light. It’s T6 aircraft aluminum body is waterproof to about 10m. The Constel features a dome shaped light diffuser which houses a white LED lamp. Below is a photo of Mel’s Jill-Lite next to a 4Sevens Q Mini 123 which is only 2 1/4″ tall. He tells me he swears by it. Not only is it small and lightweight but offers plenty of illumination for a tent.

SOFIC – SureFire

Thursday, May 16th, 2013

The X400 Ultra with Green laser is coming this summer after unveiling at SHOT Show.

There are numerous advantages to Green lasers. They are easier to pick up and you can see them farther. These are made with near green laser diodes and look much more green with the naked eye. Both SureFire’s Don Alexander and I noticed that it appears more blue under an iPhone or iPad camera.

It also features a 500 lumen Ultra head and remains compatible with all existing switching options. And, even though they integrated the Ultra head, it will still fit in X400 compatible holsters.
