Q8, PMS SEND TO THOSE WITH ISSUES BLF soda can light

I bet they have arrived but they aren’t willing to say so in the hopes they get another one send to them :wink: (just joking)

Bottom line Dale… it is not “difficult” at all. :wink:
End of story………….

No, I suspect it’s a few of you making a lot of noise a most of us keeping quiet not to make things worse. We have a whole subforum for Off-topic Chatter As you said:

If anyone considers some topic slightly related to this discussion, posting a link to it is very easy. Someone who’s not interested then only has a single post to read, not 50.

@BrianK
The train set in Hamburg is called Mineatur Wunderland Hamburg and it’s not one Video, they have a channel

Most in German, but you can have fun with subtitles. :wink:

What would be the likelihood of getting colored e-switch buttons, like for example, pink? Or the possibility of a choice in colors for a glow-in-the-dark o-ring at the lens? I’m sure a lot of folks would like such things, especially for those gift lights…

The LED’s would be easy to swap out after market, kinda doubt they would offer different colors from the factory. That would be really hard to keep track of.

Don’t bother trying to use logic and sound reasoning here. They will always counter with: “hey, these gurus are designing a great light for you, uncompensated. We’ll do whatever we want and we don’t care if we waste your time, because you’re getting a great light for cheap. Now put up or shut up!”

Seriously, logic and sound reasoning on an internet forum? :laughing:

That sounds just outright hilarious…. :smiley: Priceless & well done…… :wink: I was in on a few workplace pranks in my time…. but never one as neat as this one sounds. :slight_smile:

That is just sad…… :person_facepalming: … :frowning:

When you quoted me you took out all the “educational” parts??? Not cool…… :frowning:

Why of course……. :smiley:
Baaaaa-haaaaaaaaaa :wink:

I like the way Clemence describes BLF as a flashaholics’ cafe, a good place to hang out in (confiding he has forgotten he has an account in that other forum.)

I grew up near train tracks, counting the boxcars pass by; the Harry Potter Reality Distortion Field does nothing for me, but OMG do I love hot peppers, and hearing about self abusing snacks to keep looking for at Wally World.

That’s the one! Just amazing!

+1
This.
And Teacher, you are misusing the “”

Different strokes for different folks…… :+1:

That does not surprise me one bit ‘justanotherguy’. :slight_smile: … The subject of English in school was never my forte…. and the punctuation part of that subject was even worse. :wink:

Woot it is getting a bit much for me too, when I see 43 new posts I am like “oh oh what is wrong?” Tap only to see off topic chatter

Though interesting I can image it is a bit annoying if one expects the topic to explode when new input or even order time comes and then see 100+ new posts after two days only to see trains, 26650 chargers, pepper talk and what not :wink:

If this isn’t cruel it sounds like a nice idea, just liberate them and don’t fry then on turbo :smiley:

So on topic
For different colors behind the switch cover one needs to replace those tiny little LEDs.

Idk where glow in the dark orings can be found in this size, a link would be cool!

About the ‘off topic’ chatter - THIS IS NOT THAT FORUM! This is BLF. We OT when we wanna, and there ain’t nuthin’ wrong with that! :wink:

Now, wonder where those other two Q8 protos are. It would be nice if they’d turn up soon, for real! :innocent:

I generally enjoy the chatter, but I also think those who do not enjoy it make a valid point.

There are a variety of different cultures interacting here, two of which are often described metaphorically as the cathedral and the bazaar. That may not exactly match the situation here, but I find it’s still close enough to be a useful lens to view things through.

I’ve been pretty solidly in the bazaar camp for ages, where things are messy, loud, and chaotic… TBH, I kind of thrive on chaos. However, there’s nothing wrong with preferring a cathedral approach which is more structured, orderly, and quiet. For some, this is a fun place to hang out; for others it’s a place to get news. If both can be accommodated, that seems like it would be ideal.

So, is anyone willing to maintain a highlights reel in a separate thread? Copy/paste the most important on-topic comments from the main thread to the summary thread, for the benefit of those who don’t want the full firehose of discussion? All it takes is one volunteer.

Just, um, being silly.
