The US has some, uh, interesting ideas about content ratings and what counts as obscene or unhealthy. It’s considered okay to show violent murders but not okay to show a nipple.
In either case though, it’s easier to see with a good flashlight.
See how I got us back on topic there? Smooooooth.
On FW3A proto1, I had issues with the battery losing contact when I placed the light on a hard surface, because it had a weak spring at the back and a post at the front. There were also issues with the driver. Those were both fixed in proto2, along with some other improvements. After putting a layer of Kapton tape around the front of the inner tube, it has been functioning pretty much perfectly ever since. It makes a really nice EDC. And in theory, proto3 should remove the need for Kapton tape.
I’m not 100% sure what changed between proto2 and proto3 though, because Cawi’s description of proto3 sounded exactly like proto2. I think there was some sort of initial issue, but I’m fuzzy on the details, and it sounds like it has been working fine ever since.
I’m still hoping for a nice diffuser wand so I can use the FW3A as a candle.
It would also be useful for waving down taxis and such, but mostly I just want it to work as a candle. None of the diffuser attachments I’ve found fit right.
It’ll probably be too yellow for you, but I use a rubber protector from an old streamlight NiCd battery as a diffuser on an S2+. Its especially useful along with the bike flasher mode!
The only problem I have with RC’s sig line is the knives. Don’t care about the horror stuff, have seen Jason die too many times… I guess I got old and moved on.
It’s hard for me to look away from the few in there that call my name. I’ve even gone so far as to look up those that haunt me, but, alas, my taste in knife materials has moved beyond Kershaw… pity too! (3,4,14,19 and next to the last… from the left, still whisper sweet nothings…)
Yeah, when rules are all that matter, you’re probably right…
The black and white add to the sinisterness (according to my spelling check that’s a word) / horror of knife murderers or other mass murderers. The masks add to it some more.
The stories are based on similar real events, or in other words, some utterly sick people have actually done such things in reality.
Really sick sh… uhm… crap.
Yes, I don’t have 10 minutes to waste reading off topic discussions about horror movies and porn. That 10 minutes would be better spent watching horror movies or porn.
