I give away my flashlights all the time. I get samples sent to me for review, and I usually gift them to muggles because I know they are safe.
I keep the hotrods to myself hahaha, after the D4 turned on in my jeans pocket on turbo and scorched my leg, I didnāt want that to happen to anyone else, ouch
Congratulations on your 3000 posts and thank you for giving away one of your lights.
I will surely follow this thread, but I wonāt be in the GAW (let the record show: ehā¦. reluctantly).
The reason: I already have won one of your amazing creations.
Surprised that I hadn't signed up for this giveaway yet ..What was I thinking ?
I've given lights away... but think talking about nice things you've done for others to increase chances of getting something kind of negates the thing you've done .
But.. I did pour about 3 pounds of mixed nuts in a chipmunks hole after I noticed he'd popped his head out and ran off . I was sitting in my van facing a hillside eating my lunch when I noticed mr chipmunk exit his hole right in front of me . I had bought a big bag of mixed nuts and thought .."oh wouldn't this be fun if when he came back from scrounging for food he can't get into his house because someone filled his hole with yummy snacks ." I believe in giving not to the homeless but creating homelessness by giving .
A CRX giveaway??? How did I miss this? If I won it would free me of having to ask CRX if I can have his latest creation every time. Oh boyā¦what have I freely given? Canāt really explain why, but I feel sorta strange answering thatā¦almost like it nullifies any generous deed I may or may not have done. Howeverā¦as with most fathers, I can proudly say I give as much of my free time to my family as possible which often times means attending to my hobbies after everyone else has gone to bed. If youāre still looking for any member input, I really like that GITD detail you doā¦you did answer my question about it, but still not sure I got how you did it
I just couldnāt pass up a CRX giveaway. The flashlight itself will be monumental for sure. I am sure it will be treasured by anyone who wins it.
I am not really comfortable tooting my own horn. So all I will really say is, I try to help when I can, give what I can and be kind to others. Quite a few many years ago when I quit drinking and running around getting into too much trouble I made a pledge to myself. I will do my best everyday to do one kind thing to a person without them knowing it and asking nothing in return. I have been fairly successful sticking with it as hard as it gets sometimes.
I do really enjoy giving things away. I am sure I have given away far many more lights, knives, and just plain cool stuff than I have ever kept for myself. If I have it and you need it, itās all yours. I donāt ever lock my doors or lock my car. I figure if you need to break into it and take something, then you probably need it more than I do.
Canāt wait to see what CRX comes up with this time. Good luck everyone.
To be clear, talking about a little something youāve given freely doesnāt nullify your deed or make you boastful, itās not witchcraft or a competition between you
Itās just a nice simple rule to keep the riffraff from entering and show me something of your character. Seems to be working well so farā¦
It is my give away that I will be putting a lot of work and time into so thatās the way it is.
Thanks for your understanding (or not)
I gave my boss three different flashlights because he kept misplacing them. My fishing buddy got an itp from me and carried it 4 years before it died. Friends have been given eo1ās and itpās. While I probably donāt deserve a CRX I will put my name in the mix.
Thanks for your generosity.
Congrats on 3000 posts, always a pleasure to see what youāre up to.
Iām in, but please consider my entry to be in the name of our admin, sb56637ā¦ since I got into flashlights over 5 years ago Iāve been here virtually daily, many times most of the day (donāt believe me? look at MY post count! ) Were it not for sb hosting this site we couldnāt be here, and now WE are over 27,000 members strong! So yeah, if I were to win your giveaway please contact sb for instructions how to send it to him.
Canāt wait to see how those bits o brass turn outā¦
Thanks for the opportunity to win a CRX creation! I have given flashlights, batteries and chargers to family members (along with information for safe operation) especially the ones who need dependable bright lights to take their puppy family members out at night.
