This is just my way of giving thanks and letting y'all know I appreciate this community we have here (Thanks to/from JacktheClipper too...he donated the light to me). Up for drawing is my most recent build:
To be included, just post here and maybe give a reason or two why you like the site. Lurkers, time to register and be counted.
I haven't decided how the drawing will be held (most likely random.org), but I'll update this first post if I think of something better. Drawing to be held Monday, June 13th @ 10pm EST.

This site is the best mainly for the people on it! Honest people with honest opinions about honest flashlights. You will never find a nicer group of people from all walks and nations. Hell, I'm addicted to the damn site more than I am to flashlights, me thinks! LOL
Wow, what a nice gesture. What I like about this place is the foundation of civility that it is built upon. Self moderation almost eliminates the need for any moderation at all. Not to say that difference of opinion doesn't happen, as it would in any free conversation, but the tone is right.
Awesome. Why is this site great? Because you can be an idiot and most of the time people won't treat you like an idiot. If I ever need a light related question answered, I ask it here, because I know I will get a real answer and I won't be judged on the content of the question.
Hey, how did I miss this one? Looks to me like a light Luke Skywalker would have been proud of! (Oops, now I've outed myself as a Star Wars fan ;) )
I like BLF because it is a chaotic place with much OT-chat and where hijacking a thread is more the rule than the exception and nobody cares too much. It's a friendly, humorous and tolerant place like no other I have found yet. Why is that? Well, it's the people of course who make this place so unique. We are all different in background, expectations, budget and main focus to name just a few but in the end we are all here for (more or less) the same reasons, to discuss a harmless and rewarding hobby in a familiar atmosphere and have some fun. "Treat everybody else like you want to be treated yourself" is something I learned as a kid (dunno if it translates right) and I still think it's a very good thing to do, but in the real world most people don't give a sh*t it seems. Here on BLF it is the opposite, that's what I like about BLF.
It is the atmosphere here at BLF that draws a lot of people in. Theres so much simple easy to understand information just waiting to be absorbed. I always look forward to the reviews and the mods that everyone does. Thanks! Match and Jacktheclipper.
Wohooo! Win a Match Mod! Well, this is one reason to like this site right away: like-minded addicts enthusiasts doing awesome stuff! I honestly couldn't name a site that I visit as often as the BLF, there's always something new to see and learn. Big thanks to Mr. Admin and all fellow flashaholics! And thanks to the noble Mr. Match for this opportunity. Match Mods rock!
Glad I joined this site and would recomend that others who have an interest in flashlights to do the same. The reason is that those who take the lead in posting and controling this site do so in a manner that is friendly and informative. Because of their efforts BLF is a community of caring people united by a small, useful, and affodable product: flashlights.
Thanks Match. I want this light bad bacause I'm just getting the hang of flashlight modding and want to learn (and see, and feel) how it's done by the best.
This site is awesome because of so many things. There is so much valuable information, threads to be bookmarked and so on. But it's not just a database - there are also some knowledgeable people here who don't mind sharing what specific kind of knowledge they got when people ask. You can always be sure to get an answer to your question in here.
But the main reason I love BLF is the friendlyness. I'm a very new user here, but people treat me like I'm a regular. One of my first posts, and one of the regulars offered to order something for me, and ship it to me so that I could save on shipping costs. That's a kind of friendlyness you find anywhere else on the Internet.
I like this site because it's filled with people who are intelligent, inventive, and open-minded regarding the posssibilities that are available on a budget. Many of us share the joys of creating, modifying, and improving everything we touch.
One of the things I really like about this place is that giveaways like this happen. They're a lot of fun for everyone. And no having to buy tickets or anything.
Another thing I like is the sense of community. Like the wonderful folks who sent me donations when Fizz died. Thanks folks, you're great!
Thanks Match and Jack. That would be a nice light for anyone to win. OK I like BLF because people feel free to discuss saving even one dollar without feeling self conscious about it.
Really, is the perfect site for those flashaholics like me........ very usefull and unique reviews of budget and non-budgets flashlights and, of course.......... very good "atmosphere" with the other users.
