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.

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, 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 !
I am already visualizing the duct tape over your mouth.
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

I think it was juice itc
I think it was carry cases plus
I went to lazer designs.com
It cost 18 plus the shipping there and back. They have done a mag lite for me in the past. They did a nice job and relatively quick
That is real cool. Gonna put "Foy" on one of my lights.

Welcome!
...I almost read the title wrong like "Big Greta..." hrhrhhhh...
Thanks for the heads up on the light meter apps, kdubs. I've got a LG Revolution that runs Android. Later tonight I will download and see if they work on my phone. I've been meaning to buy a light meter, but if this works, all the better.
Nice job on a nice light btw.
