Hello from Montréal, Canada

Hi everyone,

I guess I have to stop by in this section for my first post :slight_smile:
I’ve been a lurker for awhile here and on CPF.

My love of flashlights were given from my older brother. My first flashlight he gave me when I was 7 or 8 years old was a 2 AAs red everready flashlight with a white switch. Wich I still have :slight_smile:

Then my brother move on to the Maglite madness, beginning of the ’90, I think. 3D to 5D, 3C to 6C, he have them all. As for me, I settle for 3D, 4D.

We kept it that way for a few years, until 4 or 5 years ago I discovered the “MXDL 3W” flashlight. WOW. That fire inside me started to burn again!!

I discovered the CPF forum, wich I found the members a little bit intimidating. All those Pelican and others 100$ and plus flashlights were out of reach for me at that time. And I couldnt get any help from any member regarding my questions on “basic” flashlights (read dealextreme’s flashlights).

But I kept an eye on CPF, but as CPF were often offline, I found this forum. I’ve been lurking around and I, IMHO, see members here are more down to earth and friendly. Feel good to lurk here :slight_smile:

I’ve learned alot here, really I did. Difference between akaline and NIMH, lumens vs throw.
I’m a computer tech guy, I like high end computer hardware. But no knowledge in the electrical department. I just start learning the “draw” and this like that, here on this forum.

So here’s a list of my “important” flashlights
-Fenix TK60
-Fenix TK50
-Fenix LD40
-Fenix E40
-Fenix E21
-Jetbeam PA40
-Ti
-T10
-Neutron 2A
-L3 L10
-SK68

and plenty others “impulse purchases” :slight_smile:

I must admit, I registered today, because I need help with my PA40. Wich I’ll post in the modding section.

*sorry if my english is bad. enlgish isnt my first language.

ouch, sorry. double click.

that’s embarrasing…
