Home Depot Deal Alerts & Discussion Thread

<big edit, I got an Imgur account, but I don't know how to use it!>

I own 4 of the Husky 800 lumens now. Let me see if I have gotten any smarter at adding photos. This should be a pic of the bright side:

And this should be a closeup of the LED, running IIRC from a previous post at around 28 VDC.

Well, it worked in preview, let me try my first "beamshot" from my Galaxy S6 with a broken lens around 4 feet from my custom, specially designed white wall garage door.

I tweaked the size a bit so it didn't distort.

edit: rehosted to imgur to downsize pics feel free to copy and paste code into your post.

Those images are huge; you should use a service like Postimage or Imgur; they reduce the size of the images to make it optimal for sharing; also someday you’ll probably delete those images from your dropbox and then they wouldn’t work.

Great, ANOTHER account to set up and figure out. I usually use the basic editor and set them to 50%, but to get the strike through text to work I had to use the advanced post editor, which busted the simple editors image links. I DID set them to 800 x 450 (?) but you are right, on my phone it is still huge.

You don’t need an account to use Imgur or Postimage.
The BLF post editor thing is weird.

Thanks for the breakdown pic Lazy-R-us. Good stuff.

I wouldn’t say the first picture is the whole thing though. There is a good sized separate box behind the head that houses the AC/DC converter and driver circuitry. There is also a nice stand electrical cord that comes with the unit.

Many Thanks!

I uploaded to a private imgur album and edited my quote post. If you want you can just copy and paste it into your original post.


What does “NO HOME” mean?

Here’s a reply to the mouse discussion; when we got back here, all four rat traps were occupied; the results were interesting.

One mouse had the bar snapped right on its head which popped its eyes out. Apparently their eyes are actually clear and their sockets are black.

Only one mouse was killed correctly, the one with the clear eyes :confounded:
BTW the eyes bit is not normal, you got unlucky

My mouse trap caught one today, first one this year :weary:

Seems we need more traps since we had no vacancy this time. Maybe we should use a bucket trap. It’ll probably fill up to the brim. LOL

get humane traps and release the poor mousies into the woods, exactly one half mile from your house

Did we not have this discussion before, here is the reply again, and my offer is still open

Maybe we should branch the mouse discussion off…

i hope it dies quickly this time

No I meant make a separate thread, and if it were, we wouldn’t want it to die, would we?

well if you release the poor thread into the woods exactly one half miles from this thread, then it wouldn’t have to die.

oh - by the way - i found one of those 70 lumens armormax headlamps for a penny! now if only they had 383 of them, i could have bought them all for $3.83 thus making dchomak’s words come true.

it is dead, this is just a dead cat bounce before rigor mortis sets in
