What you got today

The lighter is a representation of the “Mannekin Pis,” found in Brussels, Belgium.

The original peeing statue is there, as is the museum devoted to his 700+ costumes. You can find just about anything in the shops there that could possibly have that figural attached…keychains, corkscrews, pouring bottle-tops, even full-size souvenirs of the statue to take home.

The original is only about 2-feet tall, and off of a tiny alley in the Grand Place…but the wee thing sells a ton of merchandise !

@E1320 - ha! And I was wondering what the rubber band was for… Brilliant shot! :bigsmile:

Received a xm-l 1a for $6.12 not great but good, and an xr-e P4 warm white $3.00from LED-DNA on ebay ordered on 5/27 received today 6/5 very fast shipping. Both on 16mm board to start my self modded lights and the warm white to see if I can get addicted. Want one of the nichia leds everyone is liking.

Hopefully that P4 warm white will be a cheap start in warm whites!

2 L2m’s

Sorry crap photo. I put 3 extensions on one body and can use 2 18650. I only bought these eight days ago from a Hong kong ebay seller.

Got a L2P in grey from Solarforce, together with non-crenellated bezel. Ordered 31 May, sent next day, arrived this morning. We’ve just had 2 days public holiday, so pretty amazing really.
Trouble is, the Intl Outdoor drop-in I ordered at the same time hasn’t shipped yet :frowning: Think I’ll give Hank a shout. Still, put my only other drop-in in, and had a play. Very nice.

EDIT - Just noticed - this is a special edition. It’s very special. In fact it’s “Specical Edition”. Woops.

I got yet another four pairs of XTAR 2600mAh 18700s.

Yes, the BLF deal is still on!

Yes, XTAR delivered these in seven (7) days!

And yes, all four pairs were exactly at 3.78V!

Got a P60 drop-in from Manafont that has a Samsung 3535 LED. The LED is pretty much the same as a Cree XP-G. Mini review here:

yesterday received an xr-e 16mm in the colors red and green, 2 - xml 12volt version, and a xr-e R2 drop-in, Ordered these from goodluckbuy.com on 5-26-12 and received on 6-7-12. Fast as all get out! Will try them again.

I got a shipment from the BLF FB XTAR giveaway! :smiley:

Posting pics in the appropriate thread soon.

About 1 hour from Vancouver,it was raining some today ,but I got a 2 hour ride in

I received the “32 pc MICRO PRECISION SCREWDRIVER SET w/ T4 T5 T6 Mini Torx, Hex, Flat, ” for $8.99 + shipping. I got it on ebay and it was shipped from the U.S.

I worked for the knives that I have and will work for opening up my watches too I believe.

I also got an “emergency fire starter” for $5 from ebay as well. This is for camping and is basically a block of magnesium with an attached scraper and a spark rod. I tried it out on some dryer lint and it worked well. There is a little technique required (just takes a little practice).

A match works too :slight_smile: but for $5 this is nice to have along as well.

:smiley:

Here it is:

I must say, it’s a really nice present. Once again, BIG thanks to Watkins and Xtar! :heart_eyes:

I received a significantly increased amount of spam emails in the last few days… becomes a pain in the ass!!! |(

Anyway, on 6/7/2012 i got 4x18650 (4.01V; 4.01V; 4.01V; 4.00V) and 2x14500 (3.79V; 3.70V) TF batteries and on their way are: 1xbike light, 1xFandyFire G10 and a few little things like AAA to AA converters, spare O-rings, some holsers … I hope they will be here in 2-3 days and if i am really lucky they will be here tomorrow :smiley:

I have received one 21.5mm, one 35.8mm diffusers from Manafont, ordered June 3, received June 11, 8 days including holidays to Istanbul.
This was my first order from manafont. Also received 2x14500 TF battery, a small knife, and nail clipper.

Got a pretty difficult to get plastic model kit, and some very cool glass mugs (look carefully…)

Got a Roche F12 sand/yellow colour, with Sanyo unprotected battery, & holster from Intl Outdoors. Waited patiently for teh battery to charge, now need to wait for the dark. Nice light, with reverse clicky, memory, neutral.

Also ordered few other things, which I was surprised to see, since the package had either split open, or been opened. There was a hole in the top, but the split rings & rubber switch covers were all still there. So I’m a happy bunny.

Finally got my CNQG 20MM CREE XML T6 3C 5000K NW Emitter, after 35 days of waiting.

I got an order from SF. L2T special with the a001 head and stainless tail cap. A couple of stainless bezels and some SF 16340’s. Photo shows it lego’d on my L2m body.
I also got an order from DX. Took 26 days to process it but only 11 in the post. Aurora sh 033 stainless Cr2 Xpe Light. A nice little light.
