I got a nice set of Michelin Pilot Road 3’s for the Motorcycle..kelly
Great choice,I have a set of Michelin Pilot Sport HPX on my Suzuki Bandit 1200. They are awesome tires, they stick like glue on the dry, work awesome in the rain and last a very long time. Some of the best sport bike tires I have ever had and I have tried them all.
Good tyres, both sets. However, don’t go that step further and get the Michelin Pilot Race tyres for the roads. They are the best tyres ever when up to temperature, but have less than no grip when cold. I almost binned it in a carpark doing 5mph because the tyres were stone cold.
Living on the wet coast, of Canada I don’t dare consider anything that doesn’t work in the cold and wet..kelly
I hear ya Kelly. Same in the uk, but I was a little optimistic regarding the up and coming summer that year…
Where in Canada? I’ve always wanted to visit Vancouver
About 1 hour from Vancouver,it was raining some today ,but I got a 2 hour ride in
I received the “32 pc MICROPRECISIONSCREWDRIVERSET w/ T4 T5 T6 Mini Torx, Hex, Flat, “ for $8.99 + shipping. I got it on ebay and it was shipped from the U.S.
I worked for the knives that I have and will work for opening up my watches too I believe.
I also got an “emergency fire starter” for $5 from ebay as well. This is for camping and is basically a block of magnesium with an attached scraper and a spark rod. I tried it out on some dryer lint and it worked well. There is a little technique required (just takes a little practice).
A match works too but for $5 this is nice to have along as well.
I received a significantly increased amount of spam emails in the last few days… becomes a pain in the ass!!! |(
Anyway, on 6/7/2012 i got 4×18650 (4.01V; 4.01V; 4.01V; 4.00V) and 2×14500 (3.79V; 3.70V) TF batteries and on their way are: 1xbike light, 1xFandyFire G10 and a few little things like AAA to AA converters, spare O-rings, some holsers … I hope they will be here in 2-3 days and if i am really lucky they will be here tomorrow
I have received one 21.5mm, one 35.8mm diffusers from Manafont, ordered June 3, received June 11, 8 days including holidays to Istanbul.
This was my first order from manafont. Also received 2×14500 TF battery, a small knife, and nail clipper.
Got a Roche F12 sand/yellow colour, with Sanyo unprotected battery, & holster from Intl Outdoors. Waited patiently for teh battery to charge, now need to wait for the dark. Nice light, with reverse clicky, memory, neutral.
Also ordered few other things, which I was surprised to see, since the package had either split open, or been opened. There was a hole in the top, but the split rings & rubber switch covers were all still there. So I’m a happy bunny.
I got an order from SF. L2T special with the a001 head and stainless tail cap. A couple of stainless bezels and some SF 16340’s. Photo shows it lego’d on my L2m body.
I also got an order from DX. Took 26 days to process it but only 11 in the post. Aurora sh 033 stainless Cr2 Xpe Light. A nice little light.
got my neutral roche F12 yesterday..very nice light, but man does it heat up quick..even on medium you feel the heat instantly..it’s good that it’s heat sink is good, but also the metal seems light..still a good EDC light..won’t take my sc600’s place or anything but it will be nice when I go camping this July with it’s neutral beam..
Those Roches look really good. I think I want one..
Do you have other small 18650 lights to compare it with? Would you post a photo with it next to say UF2100?
I will do this for sure when I get home..from what I can tell it’s about the same size as the 2100..+/- a few mm..very very close..also a tad longer than my sc600

Pick up this gun mount at Solarforce. I have to say that I’m disapointed with it as the mechanism that attaches itself to the rails is a spring loaded pin and it’s not strong enough to support the weight of the torch. Hense, the torch wobbles loose. Not something you want to fail on you when it’s an all out zombie attack~! To fix this I think I will have to tap in a set screw or something to modify it. I wish SF would have better pictures and description of their product. I guess I could have contact Jo for more details before I ordered it to think of it. Anyways be warned if you were planning on buying this.

I received a UF50x host and a dropin with blue LED. Gonna swap the driver because its 1 mode and 1A only.. but very bright. And nice blue color, makes any XML look like warm white.
@okwchin - neat on both counts but if the glasses are Bodum you need to be careful. They are nowhere as strong as claimed and are actually rather fragile. Also, i haven't necessarily felt that they keep drinks colder/hotter for,longer than regular mugs despite the double-walls. They do look very cool though.
Manafont order came in today and I received – tail cap remote switch universal, 10 pack of GITD switch covers, 2 BLF lanyards, and 2 trustfire flame 18650’s 3000ma . Just a few more parts and I will start my first mod of a flahlight.
I got yet another four pairs of XTAR 2600mAh 18700s.
Yes, the BLF deal is still on!
Yes, XTAR delivered these in seven (7) days!
And yes, all four pairs were exactly at 3.78V!

Got a P60 drop-in from Manafont that has a Samsung 3535 LED. The LED is pretty much the same as a Cree XP-G. Mini review here:

(to see @ 100% right click -> View Image)
Is that a 1 mode or 6 mode?
I have a 6 mode version and I’m afraid to put 14500 in it, it will almost certainly fry the driver in a 6 mode version.
