CRX 3000 Post Giveaway

Interested :slight_smile:
I gave a 30Q and a liitokala usb charger to my friend who bought a D4 and used cheap fake Chinese cells in it. He was wowed by the performance afterwards :slight_smile:

Count me in Stevi.

I’ve given away, to various mates, most of the Olight torches that the delightful Sandra sent me for review over the last couple of years. She’s now moved on to pastures new but I’m still in touch with her as a friend.

Oh man I can’t wait to see what light you come up with next!

Thanks CRX for so many valuable posts in so many years.

I’m not in for the CRX-special, I misuse my lights too much to own such a beauty.

Hmm, what did I give away? Lots of numbers and graphs I guess :partying_face:

And that’s a truly great giveway djozz. :+1:

That’s a very nice gesture :+1:

I said no riff-raff Paul :smiley:

Just kiddin’, you sent me some of the bits that went into building this fella :+1:

Thanks for all the info you share with us :+1:
Yes it doesn’t have to be a physical thing, time spent helping others, a nice gesture, sharing etc :+1:

Thank you for the chance in your giveaway. Very generous of you.

I’ve given each of my family members a flashlight (mostly Sofirn kits, but a Convoy and Eagle Eye too).

I’m an amateur woodworker and I gave every family group in my extended family a cutting board/cheese tray/charcuterie board made from the walnut tree from our childhood home.

I’m also an elementary school teacher and am making some wooden pencil holders for my students to reuse some scrap cutoffs.

Congrats on the 3K and Thanks for the GAW.
I dont have a CRX Creation in my collection.

I gave away many things this year… but i’ll only list the flashlights.
Imalent HR20 headlamp that I put a grid optic into.
Several Utorch UT01’s AA powered
A few Glaree E03 AAA lights, Thrunite clones.
Olight EOS
Tool Nichia twisty with magnet
Seems like anyone that appreciates a light they end up owning it, I’m a softee.

I’m in sir. :beer:

Very in…

What have I given… last light was an Olight R50 to a tow truck driver in a storm with a crappy maglight 4C. He was a friend in need and I could help.

Congrats on your 3000 posts. Please count me in on this great giveaway.

I am very curious as to what a CRX light is. They must be amazing due to the comments I have read here.

I have given countless flashlights to family and friends over the years, hoping they will enjoy and use them, or maybe turning someone into a (another) flashaholic.

But I really enjoy giving them to children. For this X-mas, I gave out 5 of those Life Gear Glow Sticks with flashlight, flasher, and whistle/lanyard, all to children under the age of 5. They were a hit!

Some are better than others, each one is a unique prototype :wink:

The idea behind a “CRX light” is the making of a flashlight by your own hands without having access to a lathe or CNC machine from easily obtained parts & materials using only everyday common hand tools, i.e just about anyone could make them with some thought, dedication & perseverance.

Thanks for the gaw.

My old friend lost his job for not agreeing with one of the big wigs. He wanted to do some camping and he has a really crappy light. His only headlamp is the Princeton EOS. Unfortunately he put alkaline in it and it leaked. I felt bad so I gave him my Olight R50 Seeker as a Christmas present. Rechargeable and reliable, now he can go camping and relax a bit before looking for another job.

I gave my house to 10 people and 9 dogs for 2 weeks after the “campfire” in CA USA, they were family and friends that lost everything they owned in the fire, flashlights came in handy for those 2 weeks, love your stuff, thank you for the giveaway.

Nice idea for a GAW. I’ll be keeping an eye on this and watching it come together. Please count me in.

I just gave a wuben t046r to a tech averse older friend. It is a perfect gift for the uninitiated because of the built in micro usb charging feature. I could tell he was just used to maglight levels of brightness and was blown away by this relatively little pocket rocket. Often times, giving feels better than receiving.

Love to win something.
I’ve never done a giveaway on here but I have given many of my lights to friend’s and family. I always want anyone I know to be able to reach out and light someone

I am in. Thanks for the GAW and congratulations on your 3000 posts.
I have given countless flashlights to family and friends over the years, hoping they will enjoy and use them.
Best of luck on your expertise in the flashlight build.

Hey man, I’m interested in a shot at this light here, since I didn’t see anything indicating you’ve already finished it.

Regarding what I’ve given away, my flashlight hobby is known by most people, and I have no qualms about reinforcing that view of me. I’ve gifted Nitecore MT06MD penlights to friends when they graduated nursing school, I’ve given many a headlamp to friends working in industrial settings, and I’ve offered countless recommendations to people who ask me. I’ve done modding work for various people, as well, not charging more than a few dollars for my time on top of the cost of parts (generally just enough to round out a dollar value).

Hey, very cool. Please count me in

I’ve given some furniture and time to a struggling single mom.

Sounds like the description of a “Old-Lumens” light, too.

Keeping the tradition alive :slight_smile:
