Pipe clamps last for a long time -- and some I've used are very old indeed -- so it's possible that good and bad hooks are the same brand, but from different eras. I'll check it out and post what I find. <br /><br />Near as I can tell, Source Fours come from the factory with those crappy hooks -- I've never seen one with a good hook. And on that note, a good hook and some kind of worm-gear adaptation to help focus the lens would make the Source Four a much more user-friendly light.Michael Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02569781786039595929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078779326914378322.post-73005514098313706542012-07-16T20:41:36.740-07:002012-07-16T20:41:36.740-07:00So which are the good brand names, which are the b...So which are the good brand names, which are the bad ones?
