The first BLF thread was created on either January 9th or 10th, 2010, depending on your time zone.
So BLF will be 12 years old in less than a week.
Happy 12th Birthday, BudgetLightForum!
(Maybe I'm jumping the gun a little bit.) 
Of course, the person we have to thank the most is Mr. Admin...
...but BLF wouldn't exist without everyone else on the forum.
So, congrats to sb (and all BLF members!) 
Happy 12th birthday to all admins and people involved with that great forum! Best on planet Earth 
That’s quite the dedication. 
cheers to the admin for keeping the site running and the members keeping the site alive.
12 Years already!
Happy 12th anniversary BLF and thanks SB!
Congratulations BLF
Time flies

Wow, knew it had been a good while! Great site, thanks to all who make it work and here is to 12 more!

It’s nice to see that members care.
Good to know.

Happy BLFday!!!
Dang Racoon — That’s a Hell Of A Cake you made for this occasion
BLF has been a Fun place to Hang Out and Learn
:+1:
I still love it here even though it has cost me some serious bucks.
And thanks to all the sponsors and manufacturers who support us with ads and great deals (which also cost me more money!)
And all the members who take the time to develop goodies, give freely of their knowledge, and review stuff.
All the Best,
Jeff
Happy Birthday!
Best wishes to all in the Admin of this great BLF.
Stay Healthy & Safe + Hopeful & Bright (in this new year of 2022 with many more good flashlights!)
Yoho!!!
Oh, happy 12th birthday, BLF.
I don’t come here so often lately but I wish BLF to continue forever.
I don’t visit as frequently as I once did, but Happy Birthday BLF. You have all helped illuminate my life, and many of my friend’s lives as well.
I like the cake, but I found the pic on Yandex Images. 
Happy birthday, BLF!
Happy Birthday, BLF!
