I did not completely understand Bistro just based on the UI diagram as it seems so complex but as soon as I saw it knew I wanted it on a t-shirt or printed poster size for my wall where I would display it proudly.
I know ToyKeeper disagrees with me on this point but her diagrams are pure art in my opinion and nobody will convince me otherwise. Perhaps it is not so to everyone but I love it. Seeing such geeky greatness displayed as flowing lines and curves and knowing that it was a bit of a puzzle until I understood how it worked left me in awe. I still am.
I installed this firmware in my flashlights and IMO it has a very simple and useful UI.
10+ clicks - 1 flash and fuzz - then click and select group.
10+ clicks - 1 flash and fuzz, 2 flashes and fuzz - then click to on/off memory mode.
That’s all. You have to make it ones and you never forget this.
But I suspect he must have been swamped with irregular orders, so communication has been sparse. And I guess ordering almost ten different items didn’t help either.
GrayEd61, did you send PayPal to EDITED? I sent payment to that address but received no confirmation just yet. That’s still his email right? Can anyone confirm?
I guess you missed the part where I said “…other people’s email…” If he wants to post his own email online for all the world to see, that’s his deal. If he gave you permission to post his email online for all the world to see, that’s his deal. If you post his email online for all the world to see, without permission from him, that’s bad form. Does nobody know any etiquette at all any more? :person_facepalming:
By the way, I don’t know this, but it would be easy to speculate that the reason that email is no longer current might be because he posted it online for all the world to see. Just because this is a friendly forum, doesn’t mean that no baddies are watching here…
Edit: Wow! I’m getting good at this! I knew there’d be a Rude! point waiting for me when I got back! :laughing: Apparently, it’s rude to ask someone to be courteous. :sunglasses: :+1:
Actually, you probably didn’t need to open that dispute as that email does belong to Simon but as you found, that is not his PayPal email. Either way you probably should remove it from your post.
People should never list anybody’s email to (even their own) in a public forum. If Simon did that at one point, he shouldn’t have.
You are right though that Simon is absolutely swamped right now and even his responses to me have dwindled to almost nothing in the last few days so I’m trying not to bug him too much. He just needs a few days to get caught up.
Edit:
I assume you now have the correct PayPal email for Simon but if not just shoot me a PM and I’ll send it to you and can help if you have any questions about the ordering process.
Oh yeah, but why stop at clear? All Convoys available in multiple colors! Although some of them won’t wear green very well, and some might not wear red all that great either. But I think most can look good in: Black, Grey, Clear, and Blue!
On second thought, if the green and red were a bit darker, earthier, they’d look good on just about any of the Convoy lights, I’m sure!
Thanks. We’ve got it sorted out for now, well, sort of. I’m still waiting for PayPal to sort things out on their end, and I’ve got Simon’s PayPal email address as well.
For those who want this, it’s probably better to ask for a PayPal invoice from Simon with your order number for the adjusted BLF discount rather than asking him for his email etc.
Also unlike any flow chart that I’ve ever seen. Maybe that’s why I just can’t make heads or tails out of them. Old fart here.
BTW TK, I didn’t mean my comment in a negative way, but the first thing I like of is VanGogh when I see them. I take it it’s a personal way to make a flow chart? (if so, then there is nothing posted re: how to read them)
Personally, I’d say it’s more of a MC Escher thing for obvious reasons. But hey, if it actually works, it works. Thinking back on the old Convoy C8 right beside me here and the day I got it, this mode swap thing isn’t that hard, and as most said here, you set it once, you set it forever.
Seriously hope I win Miller’s latest GAW so I can get one of these now!
