Pimped my DRY flashlight "Big Girtha" (pics)

I received my Dry triple xml flashlight a couple of weeks ago and felt it was a little bare. So I came up with a little design and decided to send it out to lazerdesigns and get it tricked out. I also did a simple ceiling light bounce test and measured it with my android. A little crude but you get the idea. Here it is, my pimped dry:

Now for some readings. Images are as follows- Big Girtha, Fenix tk35, Jetbeam BC40

Welcome to BLF

Thank you, I have come over from the other side. Glad to be here.

Wow, awesome case for your lights! My gf would think i'm even more crazy if I did something like that...but I really really like the idea, so maybe one day, haha. Great looking custom light you have there!

Also, didn't know there was a light meter on Android...might have to look into that.

My first post was a joke...Welcome!

haha, I feel ya.

And welcome to the forum kdubs. Please share some info about yourself and your lights.

That's a huge pelican. :d

How do you actually measure with your cellphone????

Welcome kdubs!

Nice collection

Ohhhhhh..What app is that?

Just go on Android market and type in light meter in search engine. I have three of them on my phone. They are all free. I have never tested them against a real light meter but when you want to some ceiling bounce tests they are perfect. They all seem to give the same readings. Thanks

Hey, I have been a flashaholic about 4 years. I do some light building ( switching out led, drivers etc.) with some rudeamentery soldering. First thrower was a tiablo (t9 I believe) and havent looked back from there.I try to own a flashlight from all the different leds: p4,q3,q5,r2,xpg,xml,ssc, sst 50 and 90. I have a bunch of recorded flashlight beams from most of my lights. Every store that has flashlights , I look at them. Drives the wife crazy. She seems to put up with lights though. After all I give her pampered chef, so its a trade off. Thanks

Welcome to BLF !
I really dig the font on the Dry - is that a house industries font?

Welcome to BLF, kdubs!! Great collection you have there! 8)

Out of curiousity, what did it cost to have your DRY laser etched like that? I am interested in doing something like that on a few of my lights.

Welcome to BLF

Sick collection !

just curious, where'd you get that case?

nice collection. my sk4g must have a cheap light sensor, it maxes out at 15000 lux with any of my torches, and jumps from 6 to 5000 to 9000 to 15000. but the s4g is junk anyway. the apps say max lux is 120000 on my phone but ive yet to see it
