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

/\\\\

:+1: … Well, like I said earlier…. very impressive. Take care & watch those BP drops. :slight_smile:

this thread is long not only because of off topic, it has been active for 13 months :laughing:

8000 posts over 400 days = 20 posts a day, not really an excessive amount, give it a rest pleeeeeese.

Cheers David

Here are some pics, how I did it: http://www.taschenlampen-forum.de/media/albums/skyray-king-srk-xhp50.1836/

Now that is a neat thought! :slight_smile:

We do need a design change though, to keep up with the increasing lumen-demand, that will take a few extra months, so the post-count in this thread goes up, then that new design will not make the needed lumens, another upgrade, more time, more posts, upgrade :person_facepalming: :person_facepalming: :weary:

Heheh I think most posts are on topic but now not a lot can be done but wait hence percentage off topic is higher
However it does increase the chance of us missing things that are serious
Like where are the last two Q8 lights that are still not in?

I’d feel better if you folks with the off topic posts (like this one too) weren’t in effect forcing The Miller to read each one. As he is diligently trying to keep a list of folks that want this light and also monitor/read things that might need to be looked at as it relates to the Q8 proto, you are making him wade through all the off topic stuff that pops into your head. And that, my friends, is just wrong.

Thanks again ALL you guys pitching in on this project. Damned impressive.

@TK: not only do i enjoy your beautifully worded digressions, i also watched that “saber juggling” video a dozen times. I especially like the last throw-and-catch-behind-the-head-with-left-hand move.

It reminds me of my teenage years when Bruce Lee was all the rage. I made myself a nunchaku out of two broomstick bits and spent quite some time practicing. I can’t remember how many times i hit myself. Fast forward a few decades, i visit a friend who was into martial arts and owned a ‘real’ nunchaku made of hexagonal pieces of really hard wood and probably weighed with lead or something. Just handling it hurt my palms and although i was tempted to try a few moves, i just placed it back on it’s stand for i was really afraid to break a bone or worse.

How long and heavy is your practice ‘sword’?

I’d rather watch TK do the workout in her dress. :wink:

Just over a meter, and just under a kilogram. It’s a machined aluminum hilt with electronics inside, and a really hard thick plastic tube for a blade. The balance point is about where the two pieces meet. It’s like a heavier version of a kendo shinai, and the warranty covers a year of full-force combat.

Broken bones are indeed a valid concern. I managed to break a finger the first week I had it, due to sparring without armor. Also kinda lost an arm that day, or I would have if it had been a real plasma blade. This was only about 10 minutes after getting hit, before the bruise had a chance to really develop:

… Timbuktu?

Tom E, in the next version of Narsil you should add a Marco Polo mode so we can find missing lights.

Your firmware is so amazing sometimes you say things like that and I’m not 100% sure whether you’re joking or not :smiley:

So tell us, is this part of your training as a minor deity, or are you preparing for some sort of light saber exhibition/competition, perhaps part of a Cosplay convention, if such things exist?

Ouch! That'll hurt.

Those new fangled tag locator things would do the trick - TrackR as one example. Funny - I know a guy who's got a west coast company who came out with locator tags years ago for luggage - think he was ahead of his time, or at least ahead of the curve of the better tech/cost/marketing. GPS or audio and visual queues, or both.

Hmm driver update with gsm slot, antenna pads, GPS chip
Design new package with antenna connections, design big shipping box with antenna connections
Adds a few cents in shipping and simcard with data, but you could really see where it is then :slight_smile:
Unless it is rejected for a box with tons on outbound communication probably is not something shippers want :smiley:

And TK that is quite the damage for a goddess :wink:
Auch

Looks like TK have been a misplaced fighter ( lightsaber ) in the just over world championship in medevil fighting held here in Denmark this year.
