I got my OL Prize bundle, big thanks to PP who supplied me one of his own lights, and very kindly did the proper customs sheet and I didnā€™t get charged a penny.
I was SO excited opening it I canā€™t tell you! :partying_face: :smiley:
Thank you again PP, you are one in a million mate :+1: and thank you to the judges and voters who voted for me, itā€™s actually emotional having won such a beautiful and unique prize. :cry:
Also, thank you to Old Lumens himself, if youā€™re watching up there buddy - you have no idea how happy you made a lot of people and changed their lives with youā€™re modded masterpieces.
Rest in peace my friend, youā€™ll never be forgotten on here. :slight_smile:

Sorry for the ā€œresurrectionā€ of the thread, but just wanted to let people know that I received today my ā€œprizeā€ from the OL Contest!
I used a voucher from led4power store - thanks L4P - and today I got my stuff in the mail (along with other stuff I ordered besides the voucher) :wink:

Soā€¦the mod bug is alive :wink:

Thanks again to the organization and to L4P for the voucher :wink:

:+1: have fun with all those parts!

Way cool!! :slight_smile:

Nice Mr B :+1: , canā€™t wait to see what you do with it all.
I just sent my KR4 off to CRX for an emitter swap, I just couldnā€™t get on with those SST 20 3000k leds, I tried, but it was just way too warm. Swapping them out for some XPL hiā€™s in NW 5000k.

It seems my prize will be shipped by Neal soon. He just created an order. :sunglasses:

Have fun with your modding supplies, MascaratumB. :+1:

Yeaa Neal did come through!

My prize has arrived! Very fast shipping from Neal. Big thanks to Neal and everyone involved in organising the contest.

My prize also came today. FW3T with Lumintopā€™s current 4000k sst-20s which are gorgeous. I bypassed the springs and loaded anduril 2, along with adding some thicker mcpcb wires. The light goes from cold to burning to the touch in 15s on turbo. Thanks everyone!

Thatā€™s a nice blue, nice and even all over too.

Was it the last OL challenge :( ?

Few days ago Pinkpanda asked for someone to take is place as organizer of the challenge and it seems like no one is willing to do it

I really like this competition and I can honestly say that it improved my building and knowledge a lot.
If no one will take the responsibility I will take it since It will be shame if this tradition stops but I guess it means I will not be able to participate :(

Do you believe someone else will take the responsibility?
