OMG! Are you kidding me! EEEEEEEEEEEHH! (that’s me screaming like an eleven year old girl who has just seen a Canadian pop star)
WOW! Thanks so much O-L and all you guys for the well wishing. This may only be the Rook, but it will certainly be the Queen of my collection. What can be better than an Old-Lumens, Dr. Jones, and the unnamed BLFer (perhaps the Shadow?) produced flashlight? That is some special group! I will treasure it like it is the One Ring.
One of the things that has always astonished me since becoming a member here are the O-L mods. They were always impressive for achieving so much with so little in the way of tools. Pure ingenuity at it’s best. Honestly, I can not believe I won. Someone pinch me!
Damn, can’t believe I completely missed this. That’s one very sexy light you’ve won, cone. I squeed. I cried. I comforted myself with ice cream. O-L always does great work, and I’ve been ogling those DrJones drivers for quite a while… also have been wanting a Rook or EA4 for months, and this is better than either one.
A while back, I named my box of retired torches after Old Lumens… it seemed appropriate. (the non-retired ones are sitting conspicuously all around my desk, or placed strategically where they’re needed)
