ChrisC's Thorfire VG15S Review (AND 500 posts GIVEAWAY)

My sob story is that I am in USA and can not win.

But thanks for the review and letting it go to someone that may deserve it.

Thanks for sharing your review. I like the charts.

Is there some sort of step-down or thermal regulation going on? Somewhere between 2 and 3 minutes, lux falls considerably, and, thereafter, remains flat. I have speculated that the driver in the ThorFire VG15S is similar to the one used by the ThorFire C8s. If true, that would mean that the driver has no PWM, and also that it features a low-voltage warning.

Please include me in your giveaway. I am a bit of a ThorFire fan, so I would love to try this one out. If you want to favor members from the UK, however, I'm okay with that, too.

Here's a true story from my regular Monday backgammon group. We have a standing joke about making sure you pick up your dice cup—rather than your drink—when you go to roll the dice. Well, my friend Larry didn't roll his drink onto the board, but when his coffee came, he did accidentally pour sugar into his dice cup instead of the coffee. I don't think he was trying to "sweeten" his chances, but when he rolled, out came sugar and dice together!

Nice review! Looks like a nice light, even better if it’s free from your giveaway hahaha

Excellent review on a very nice light.

Thanks for the giveaway.

Nice review! Keep up your good work and thanks for your opportunity!

nice review
thank you for the opportunity

do you think there’s a timer o thermal controlled throttle down at 2-3 minutes?

There is definitely a timer controlling the step down. It happens at exactly 3 minutes. I took the results just after the 3 minute mark to indicate stepdown.

nice light. let me in if shipping to Ukraine is cheap enough for you.

Serp I’m sure postage will be fine. It might cost me more but hey ho.

I really like this light so I hope one of you will too.

Great review my friend.
I’m in if your budget can reach to Greece

Congrats for your 500

Sorry no sob story but a rather poor joke:

“I should have been sad when my flashlight batteries died, but I was delighted” :confounded: :person_facepalming:

Any more people want in on the giveaway? It’s quite a short list so you’re all in for a good chance!

Maybe the guy in post #11 ? :wink: Or me!

I like it. Thank you.

Nice review!

Count me in the for the giveaway if it’s not too late. :+1:

I’m American, so that’s my sob story. Also, my first child is coming into the world today! Baby needs a new pair of shoes flashlight! Oh, also, I was nailing up a picture in the nursery the other day and smashed my thumb and exclaimed, “son of a B!”

There, 3 “sob” stories! Hahaha :smiley:

I have a bad cold my wife sez…but I say it’s the FLU. I’m weak and feverish feelin’…not a sob story…the truth. I’ll enter but don’t expect to win. Just something to do whilst in such s dreamish state of mind :confounded:

ETA: Fever breakin’….I expect to win now… :laughing:

Thank you for reviewing and would like to get in the giveaway.

I’m not in.
Congrats on the milestone chrisc and good on you for the giveaway. :beer:

Nice review.

Lol, with chronic health issues I could write an epic sob story, but I would like to think I am not really the sob story type. Instead I’ll try and sob about having an impacted wisdom tooth cut out under local anesthetic that took over an hour and at one point the dentist said I should have had a general, then a suture tore out during healing and today I am heading back for the fourth time in a fortnight to make sure it is still going ok. Oh and for the sob story part :stuck_out_tongue: I haven’t been able to eat real food for two weeks (except for 2 days just before the sutures tore) and have barely lost any weight :confounded:
