What you got today

My Father-in-Law’s father’s day present, the book “Islands of the Damned” by R.V. Burgin, one of the few remaining WWII veterans. The book is Burgin’s account of being in the Pacific in WWII. This is significant to me as R.V. Burgin is my grandfather’s cousin; I already have a personalized signed copy of this book for myself… Check it out if you are interested in WWII history; it’s an interesting perspective on the war…

Thats what she said.

But I agree. :)

Yup JohnnyMac summed it up nicely, thanks.

Congrats and what timing, was just about to put up a post of a dissassembly of mine (unfortunately I ran into an issue w/the LCD wire). It's a great charger that has served me well for years.

Awesome pieces! I do like the simplicty but am just having such a hard time going back to quartz (no, I'm really not a auto/mech-snob but just find the ticking very cold and dull...).

I've been dying to get a Timex again but wanted it to be a simple budget one and specifically gifted from my mom-in-law. In Korean wedding tradition it's typical to give an expensive watch set (Rolex, Omega, etc.) as a gift, but I declined at the time since I was not into watches at the time and really didn't want her shelling out that kind of money. She really is a special woman, making constant sacrifices in her life for those around her and the Timex would be symbolic of how she lived thus I wanted this specific criteria to remind me of that always.

Hey, fyesilova

I am interested in this gadget. Can you tell if the one you received is a Genuine sanyo protuct? Both batteries and charger are genuine?

I received the 7G5-V2 Collimator Head yesterday from Hank at IOS
It made the Dereelight look tiny… :bigsmile:
I usually take my best throwers out front and aim at a phone tower that
is 200 yards away the only bummer is there are two street lights out front
but they don’t effect these two lights. I was very impressed!!! I shined
The dereelight up there first and it always hits it just with the small beam,
then came the 7G5-V2 MONSTER :bigsmile: it most defiantly lit the tower
up more with a huge beam. If you have the 7G5-V2 it’s a must!!!

Hey Rick does this head fit on any other lights in your collection?

Got the gray (brown) Tank007 E09 from Dino today. This is such a nice light for $12 (after 10% off). Came in a tin case with o-rings. Super bright on an Eneloop and buttery smooth threads. 3 modes.

Thanks Tim! It's a very nice charger but it would have been even better if it had all of the C9000 features. I've been conditioning a dozen Tenergy 10k D's so it's been very busy right out of the box.

Is yours more than 3 yrs. old? That's how long, I just read, the warranty is.

BTW, what nimh D batteries do you recommend or prefer to use the most?

The day just started and I already got something………………wood.

Erik, It sure don’t look like it would but I will look more into that and let you know… The beam is HUGE and alot more useful than the Dereelight.

Thanks, I am looking for something more budget friendly that it might fit onto, I appreciate it.

Khalil Mamoon Pharonie hookah and I love it! smoking from it right now :stuck_out_tongue:

That is awesome, i love it.

Erik,
nothing that I have will work, only the 7G5-V2… sorry man.

Thanks for checking I really appreciate it.

no problem.

You could scrape the phosphor off of an LED to have a bat shape , put an aspheric lens in there ...
