WINNERS ANNOUNCED!!! Giveway: Imalent SA04 & XinTDx3 (OP updated)

So this giveaway is simple. 1st prize is an Imalent SA04 and 2nd prize is a XinTDx3. The Imalent was used in a recent review by me, so expect it to have a minor scratch or two, or some dust… but it’s fully functional and in great shape. I have too many lights, so I figured why not give away this pretty cool one. The second prize is an XinTD X3, that we’ll call a host. It was a Gear Best special, with a flaky (out of the box) tail switch- that I tried to mod. Didn’t work out, so now it’s back together working with the driver, and still flaky tail switch. This light is in good shape, but expect the driver to be umm… beat up a bit. Remember it’s a host. The Imalent is available world wide and in the US. World wide, you pay the shipping via Paypal. In the US I pay the shipping. The 2nd place is US only, because shipping kills what is really a $20 light for anyone world wide. I pay shipping in the US. I will use random.org to select 1st and 2nd place. I will continually try a random number 2nd place until a US based BLF’er comes up. Sorry but that’s the rules! So what do you have to do? Watch my latest review, and tell me your favorite part, or least favorite part. The best joke, or the worst joke. You have to watch the video. Oh, and to make it easy on me… please put your country in the body of the post. One post per member, and members have to have been at least a member since April 1, 2015. Please re-read all rules, and if you need clarification PM me. Winners will be chosen next Monday or Tuesday. Remember this lights are as-is- not shelf queens.

If you like my videos subscribe to my channel. If you want to talk about the video, in more than one post, post in the other thread. Thanks guys and gals, this contest is only available to registered BLF members.

My favorite part of the video is the way you were describing how to adjust the tint. You were very complete.

favorite part is any scene with the mutt in it :bigsmile: He/she, needs to be in the credits!

USA here.

thanks for the giveaway!

I’m in. no need for the “watch my video rule”, because i’m a fan of your reviews, they’re the best on the internet. The part i like the most is… from beginning to the end, your fine (?) humor-irony-sarcasm, great easy to understand tests and superb recording, grading and edition (not for an oscar, but sincerely the best in flashlight reviews i’ve seen). Keep doing them, i’ll keep watching all of them!

"Because beer can aluminum was not fancy enough" ...

"Runs on 4AA batteries and not dragon tears". :bigsmile:

Who woulda thunk it? The blending of two XML's to achieve desired tint temp.

USA

I’ll just repeat my comment from YouTube. Neat how “NW” is lit up as you mention controlling the colour temperature! Another of your excellent film noir reviews. Most enjoyable and entertaining run through on a flashaholics dream light.

Always get a kick out of your reviews.

The first best part was “luxury pickup”

It felt like it took you a while to warm up.

I think when your videos have a theam, “truck, x-mas lights, Zombies” the wackyness of your ideas comes out and is better and more unique. I bet that is also harder then the “just the facts mam” reviews. If you can let us get as much of your wackyness as possible the better!!!

The truth is out....the dog is doing the reviews!!!

Count me in :)

count me in

My favorite is the cabin. Is it a warehouse anyway? Your videos are really fantastic.

Please count me in.

I'm in china,but I have a us address. so,

My favorite part of the review is the dog since I like animals.

I’m in Michigan, which is the armpit of the USA. :smiley:

Thanks for the giveaway.

Love the dry humor/delivery, makes for an entertaining review.

USA

But its a nice armpit. :smiley: I grew up in Wisconsin, and always kind of considered Green Bay an armpit, even though I love it, and am a lifetime, huge, Packer fan.

Anyway, on topic, I like the doggie too. Thank you for the generous giveaway. I am still a US resident, but I live in California now.

“…weird satanic rituals…” u meant as opposed to normal satanic rituals, right? :wink:

AZ (in NYC)

P.S. I found your review to be quite enjoyable. Please make more of them in the future. Thx 4 the review…

Great review, favorite part was “felony mode”, could play a pretty good trick on friends(driving car) with that one. USA

Nice video!

I like your dry wit, mhanlen. :)

My favorite part of your latest review is the phrase "police car felony red and blue strobe mode."

I'm not a law enforcement officer, so I definitely won't be using that mode. ;)

By the way, I'm in for the Imalent SA04, but I have no use for a XinTD X3 host.

Thanks for the giveaway!

EDIT: I'm in the USA.

Enjoyable review sir! Your approach to doing reviews like this makes it fun and keeps you watching.I had no clue that beer can aluminum was different than flashlight aluminum.I am also pleased to know that if I'm doing a satanic ritual and it's raining, the light will not fail me.That being said I am in for the giveaway which I entered with my face stuffed in my smartphone with a screen protector while sitting in my luxury pickup truck.Thanks mhanlen, well done! I am in the US too.

International here :slight_smile: I’m in. Thanks man! I will view it at home and comment :stuck_out_tongue:

Edit: Watched it and found it great. Nice ‘preparation’…Don’t know the english word. “Montage” in french :smiley:

Count me in! I like the part with the cellar stairs, looks like something from a horror movie. The rest of the review was pretty good too :wink:

And I am in Sweden

I don’t know which is the best part, but hats off to doggy as best actor :bigsmile:

By the way, what I like of your video-reviews production is the aesthetic experience they create. In the video review scene, yours truly set apart as far as photography and audio clarity are concerned. Plus you have undoubtedly a nice voice timbre, which helps of course in delivering a warmer experience.
To some non-english-speaking folks a part of your humour is lost, but nonetheless it is an added value, being well balanced. So yeah, I pretty much love your work, as I love AlfieAesthetics’ YouTube channel for similar reasons.

I’m from Italy.
