Um those caps shouldn't be open.

I think that confirms I had a lightning strike. All four of those bad boys are popped! I'm lucky I still have a computer at all.

Hey Evan V8 talked about taking the intro and low light classes that I signed up for you should help me persuade him to sign up.

 

[Westside]

Told ya.

I like the on off push button along with the twist to stay on. Plus the dual intensity.

Amazon.com: Streamlight 88851 Poly tac LED Flashlight with Lithium Batteries, Coyote: Sports & Outdoors

This is super bright, and the batteries are really cheap. I love it, and 130 lumens is more than enough.

Yeah your registration kinda put the crunch on him-- now he's gotta get his stuff in line before the class fills up.

Having the "push = light, release = no light" is great for light control-- especially when you're hitting someone with it. Every time I would strike with my PT2L I couldn't keep from clicking my clicky tailcap, so I never knew if it was on or not.

The dual intensity is nice because a gentle push is low, and pushing all the way is all 200 lumens. Since your natural reaction is going to be jamming down hard, its in the perfect place.

I was thinking the same thing and the low light is still brighter than a mini mag light.

Hope V8 signs up that would make both classes a lot of fun I think.

Well Gang I am calling it a night talk to you all later.

 

[esrice]

Now that you made me look up that light and see that its cheaper I think I'm gonna have to get one before the next class. Darn you. . . . .

How is everyone tonight?

 

[Suprtek]

How is everyone tonight?

Fighting loose siding, a schizophrenic dog, and a computer struck by lightning. Other than that everything's great! How 'bout you?

 

[esrice]

How is everyone tonight?

Hungry. And about to leave work.
