Our LED Lights

Sorry that it has has been so long since the last bog, but. I have been waiting for the new line of upgrades and flashlights to come out. as soon as they are out I will let everyone know what the
new lineup will be. We are improving many of the old upgrades for the mag light 300 boasts a rechargeable and the battery will be up to 700 lm instead of the 600 lm in the name prior if not brightest light available for this lifelike.

We will also have the stream like upgrade for the new stream like coming out as well as some new flashlights.

When I get the news from Terralux I will be back in that everyone know.

Thank you for your patience,

Tom

The new upgrades for the streamlight have been improved and many have more Lumens.

The streamlightSL20X is now going to be available with 600 lumens instead of the 200. this is the brightest LED available of trial focus for long-distance dimmable for extended use runtime.

The Terralux Upgrade is now available for the ultra Stinger at 300 lumens and is dimmable. this is the TLE -US. this LED upgrade kit for the ultra Stinger is electronically regulated with veritable focus
There is also a new upgrade LED for the Surefire 6P 300 lumens dimmable. qualities are to improve the quality of the alley D. upgrade from the TerraLux Corp. this Terra Lux upgrade kit is the brightest available ultra focus for long-distance and and is dimmable for an extended run time.

This is a circa 1942 1 USN Cell Beacon light. These Single Cell Beacon lights were part of the military gear and were widely used at least through the 60s when I was using these affixed to my lifejacket. During our night maneuvers aboard the USS McDonough DLG in the Cuban blockade we all had to wear our lifejackets without beacon lights turned off or ready to be put on an instant. The light was very small and could only be seen on a clear night.

It was the only point of light that was available for rescuers searching for anyone falling overboard or who had been left in the water after loss of ship. Even though they gave out very little light, and they would often get waterlogged after several hours in the water and go out they still gave us a lot of confidence. After all, at that time they were all that time we had. We knew that had we gone over the side we would have been found because the beacon light was on.

I have since been working with TerraLux LED lighting and have found that one of their lights (TLF-3X3AA) reminds me very much of this Navy beacon light.This light is approximately the same size and has three LEDs gave a bright steady light being powered by three small batteries. It is in a plastic case with water seals making it very seaworthy. The light beam will last comfortably for over 12 hours submerged in water still shining brightly.

It is small enough for someone to put in a handbag or a backpack without having to take a lot of space. It does have a wrist strap that could be looped through any strap or around any small object. It also has a magnetic base which will mount to any piece of metal near what you are working on.

I have found that this is the perfect little light to strap onto my and my family's life jackets and it makes me happy to have been able to remember this little beacon light I used to wear in the Navy in the early 60s. As technology keeps improving many of our older ideas keep improving along with it. This is a very good example of that. A small beacon light that will last either in or out of the water is just one other little thing that is a great boost for our everyday life.

Till next time,

Why LED's Are Replacing Incandescent Bulbs

Incandescent bulbs have been used in flashlights for portable lighting devices powered by batteries for a hundred years. This useful but very old technology has a big disadvantage in that only 5% of the power consumed produces useful light; the remaining 95% produces heat. For this reason alone, light emitting diodes (abbreviated as LEDs or LED bulbs) are replacing incandescent bulbs in all areas of lighting. Check out our LED Up-grade kits.Over 20% of the traffic lights in America a today are LEDs and virtually all high mounted brake lights on new autos are LEDs. What drives this technology change are some surprising facts about LED bulbs, which give enormous benefits to users over incandescent bulbs such as standard filament vacuum bulbs or the newer krypton, halogen, or xenon bulbs.

1. LEDs use less power thereby saving on flashlight batteries up to a hundred times. Instead of having dead batteries in 1 - 2 hours, you have the batteries producing light for 3 - 30 hours, typically.

2. LEDs are virtually indestructible as worklights and flashlights whereas regular flashlight bulbs only operate 10 to 30 hours before they burn out. LED flashlights and LED worklight items are generally rated for a minimum of 10,000 hours or over 1 year to as long as 100,000 hours or 10 years of continuous use, so they are effectively lifetime light sources.

3. LED's can focus their light into a beam without external optics allowing better spot viewing at distances. They can emit a whiter light than incandescent bulbs or in most colors without a colored lens system that absorbs 50% of the light output.

4. LED's can give out low levels of light for extremely long period of time making them perfect for emergency situations when you cannot replace batteries or need 24 hour plus lighting. Most incandescent flashlights go off within an hour or so of continuous use leaving you alone in the dark. We offer high quality LED emergency lights.

5. LEDs are shock resistant because they lack a fragile, high-temperature filament; making them a great work light. Also, unlike a hot filament, they pose no danger of fire or explosion under ordinary circumstances. We carry mini LED lights, replacement LED lights, and LED light engine products.
